Placing a priority on player safety after the death of Jordan McNair, Maryland interim coach Matt Canada has taken significant steps to ensure that the Terrapins are poised to deal with the heat of summer. Two tents are in place at practice field to provide shade. Underneath the awnings are several fans, liquids and ice. Practice sessions have been shortened to less than two hours, with time for breaks. “The focus of our player’s health and safety is No. 1, and our players are feeling that and understanding that,” Canada said Wednesday, Aug. 15, 2018, before leading the team onto the field.
