The belittling, humiliation and embarrassment of players is common. In one example, a player whom coaches wanted to lose weight was forced to eat candy bars as he was made to watch teammates working out.

Coaches have endorsed unhealthy eating habits and used food punitively; for example, a player said he was forced to overeat or eat to the point of vomiting.

A former Maryland staff member said: "I would never, ever, ever allow my child to be coached there."

While much has justifiably already been written about one of their players dying, if 10% of this article is true then Durkin is going to be sent packing.
