Findings on University of Maryland football player Jordan McNair's death to be released Friday

The review was requested and paid for by the University of Maryland, College Park. They hired sports medicine consulting firm Walters Inc., led by Dr. Rod Walters, in June to conduct an external investigation of the protocols and procedures related to the 19-year-old offensive lineman’s heatstroke death.

The Board of Regents subsequently assumed control over the review, and will be briefed on Walters’ final report during in a closed session meeting Friday afternoon.
