Talk about being at the right place at the right time. Damn!

Would be weird if Braun hired Entz as his DC.

Weird but WONDERFUL!!!!!

This is quite a deal. I honestly believe Fitz may have not known, but he is still responsible.

Wonder what the trick is for a coach to find out? Put the fear of God into everyone during a personal meeting you need to rat out the bad guys if it is happening? That is easier said than done. All in the era of the transfer portal, which puts in another interesting dynamic where players are becoming more like Gods than college athletes, in their minds.... (ie I can do whatever the f$%^ I want; I'll transfer if they don't like it.)

What a cluster. Hope Fitz lands on his feet and figures out a way to prevent it in his next job. Someone is going to hire him. Great coach.

He's not the interim coach yet. He's just put on place to manage the team while the identity an interim coach. It could become him, but not yet.

Ummmm, apparently he was actively adding people to the “shrek list” during practice with a specific clap that matched what was performed during the hazing. It sure seems like he knew.

I can't belive they would suspend someone who went 1-11 first before firing. Prefect excuse to get rid of him. 1-11 eh

Source please and not some non reputable website. I don't believe he's that dumb.

The top 4 stories there are all about what a disaster the football program is including now alleged incidents of racism.

You can believe whatever you want.

I'm not so sure this is going to be an all rosy situation for Braun. It sounds like the players are all pissed either that Fitzgerald was fired or the way Fitzgerald was fired since they all found out via social media. There's going to be a huge issue with team morale potentially with players leaving/quitting and he's going to have an administrative microscope on him from the Northwestern brass to make sure everything about the program is being ran on the up and up. Not exactly an ideal situation for a guy sitting in the big seat for the first time in a situation he was likely completely unprepared for in the first place. I'd guess he's going to lean on Entz quite a bit for advice and such.
