Paul Steinbach Headshot

Legal action against the University of Maryland over the death of offensive lineman Jordan McNair appears imminent following receipt of a letter to the University System of Maryland Board of Regents authored by the attorney representing McNair's parents.

Addressed to board chair James Brady, the letter served as follow-up to a report released Friday outlining shortcomings in the treatment McNair received for heat-related illness at a May 29 workout. He died June 13. According to ESPN.com, the five-page letter states that Martin and Tonya McNair "are deeply disturbed by the Board of Regents' refusal to accept responsibility for Jordan's death in the face of the independent, powerful and tragic findings of a report that you personally oversaw."
