The Maryland backfield suffered a tough blow on Wednesday.
Running back Wes Brown was suspended for the first three games of the 2016 season.
Prior to D.J. Durkin and his staff arriving in College Park, previous interim coach Mike Locksley had suspended Brown for violating the student athlete code of conduct. In Wednesday’s media session, Durkin announced that Brown still had three games left from that suspension and they were going to honor that discipline going forward.
Before Wednesday’s announcement, Brown was set to battle with Trey Edmunds and Ty Johnson for the bulk of the carries this coming season.
