On today's episode of Current Sports with Al Martin, Al discusses the University of Maryland football investigation and the statements made by President Wallace D. Loh and Athletic Director Damon Evans during yesterday's press conference. New details have been released on how the program failed to ensure former offensive lineman Jordan McNair was treated properly while suffering a heatstroke, which led to his death. We then conclude the show by discussing the Big Ten Network blackout we could see from Comcast in the future and how this decision could affect Big Ten fans and whether or not they will stick with cable moving forward.
