Northwestern FB coach fired

Most deserved firing this year?

 

Will you elaborate on your take?

 

Yeah. If you're still hazing (or aware of hazing) in 2023 you're an idiot.

 

I think they now feel pretty confident that he knew what was going on, whereas it was unclear previously

 

Shoulda been Huggins at WV, but he's doing the Constanza thing where he's now saying he didn't actually quit and trying to go back to work

 

NW tried to cover it up. Press had the goods ready to expose the reality. NW administration has a lot to explain.AD should be gone

 

I have to say I feel bad my first thought was "do they have any decent players to go after in the transfer portal?"

 

Probably not, it's Northwestern after all. Maybe an Olineman, they do have some good ones there.

 

Lot of asst coaches still there that were complicit if not supportive of the "culture".

 

Is Darnell Autry still there?

 

Are we in danger of getting this thread transferred to a football forum? lol

 

Not according to their website

 

You'd have to check their 1995 roster

 

The school only released an executive summary of the investigation. Over the weekend, many of the details of the hazing were made public. The deluge of stories led to increased pressure on the board of trustees as each was published.

So what happened? In my opinion, the press, boosters, students and fans came to a different conclusion as to the severity and responsibility for the allegations than the board did. The accusations of a coverup by not releasing the details didn't help. The board either realized they were initially wrong or yielded to public opinion. Neither scenario is particularly scandalous.

 

I know right, it's usually the other way around.

 

He's 4-20 the last two seasons. Why was he still there to begin with? They can pay a guy off the street a few bucks to go 1-11.

 

I volunteer!

 

Throw in the sick doc at UMich ($500m settlemetZ) and the OSU wrestling team, and the B1G has a huge sexual abuse problem.

I think that's the much bigger story here. What happens during those cold winters??
