Yeah, they were horrible. And they are heading back that way.
Fitz might as well resign right now, sit out this year and then go take Indiana next year.
Pat Fitzgerald fired

I used to think that Fitz was a really good coach because he beat us so often. But now I know that it was more about our coaching ineptness and not about him. There isn't one game we have played against Northwestern since we joined the B10 where they had a roster better than ours, but the record is 5-6.
Fitz would do well at a place like Iowa state or hell if Prime can’t coach, Colorado would be lucky to have him. I would hate that because I like Fitz but hate Colorado
Oh yeah, for sure...or like an ASU, Cal, Sandy...lame places where no one cares and he can pull off an upset here and there.
It always shocked me that his name popped up for so many gigs and I always wondered if it wasn't just his agent (probably) having connections with media guys.
Clearly his record was not going to land him some amazing job and neither was his recruiting.
His agent probably belongs in the HOF for agents.
Fitz’s record in his first 2 seasons was 10-14, then he hired Mike Hankwitz to be his DC. From 08’ - 20’ he would go 96-65 with Hankwitz running his defense. The 2 seasons since Hankwitz retired, he has gone 4-20.
Actually good timing. The first couple of weeks in July usually is the time coaches take vacation.
A former Northwestern University football player told The Daily some of the hazing conduct investigated by the university involved coerced sexual acts. A second player confirmed these details.
The player also told The Daily that head coach Pat Fitzgerald may have known that hazing took place.
“I’ve seen it with my own eyes, and it’s just absolutely egregious and vile and inhumane behavior,” the player, who asked to remain anonymous in this story, said.
The former player said he reported his experiences to the University in late November 2022. He alleges that much of the team’s hazing centered around a practice dubbed “running,” which was used to punish team members, primarily freshman, for mistakes made on the field and in practice.

What the mother fvck? If half of the shit in that article is true Pat and NW are in for some big lawsuits and trouble. Christ.
Jacked up - I think when hazing gets brought out now it’s not the traditional stuff people think of - bad deal if allegations are true and honestly glad they are brought to light to keep it from happening there and other places.
I’m surprised they didn’t fire him.. What‘s the purpose of a two week suspension unless they have no direction on who a new head coach could take over on such short notice..
In the big ten? Basically 100 percent.
If half of that article is true, I don't see how he's not fired.
He's talked about toughening up his players after a loss. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he either encouraged it or knew about it and looked the other way.
Toughen them up or turn them all gay?
He seems like the type who would think that hazing younger players is good for older players' morale and toughens up the younger players.Toughen them up or turn them all gay?
Hazing is one thing. Sexual assault is a whole other ballgame.
LMAO!!!! Who could’ve ever seen that coming?!
Such classic B1G behavior perpetrated by every B1G fan’s favorite coach.
F*ck this conference & all who defend it

I really hoped this would not be the details.
I still do not agree with you often, but the B1G has a taint only, “Deliverence”, brings to mind.
My suspicion is this happens far more than reported.
Hell, the Royals in London like “pegging”.
Things are weird.
never forget the Nebraska fans who truly and proudly believe these perverts are more closely aligned to Nebraska values than the SEC
this disgusting deviance literally never ends in the holier than thou, butthole obsessed B1G

What else could it be in the b1g?
Many perverts here will rush to the conference’s defense and insist on-field ‘cheating’ that occurs in the SEC is far more deplorable than this sick shit
Just watch
I say the answer is to idolise athletes furthur, and build massive structures aimed at idolising young athletes even more.
Common sense is gone at hundreds of millions of dollars.
every single person who roots for this league deserves to be mocked endlessly

B1G since 2011:
1 major sports national championship
8 public settlements for crimes against humanity totaling nearly half a billion dollars
perverted deviants include, but are not limited to: sandusky, mich st doctor, michigan doctor, ohio st doctor, minnesota hockey coach, pennst dog f*cker, entire northwestern football program
all appear to be serial perps whose student victims number into the thousands and were not slowed in the least by administrations responsible for collecting hundreds of millions in public grant/federal funding under the guise of education
classic, classic stuff

I played sports for a long time but I fortunately never had to deal with something like this. Hope they fire Pat, then expel anyone who sexually assaulted another person during this 'hazing' crap and after that, provide that information to the police so they can be criminally charged. It's absolutely unacceptable and anyone involved should be punished to the maximum extent possible.
So, basic Frat Hazing stuff. Ban all of those also.
