It’s time for our AD to put on his big boy pants and earn his paycheck.
Although it’s probably justified I don’t see them firing Fitz, but he needs to be provided the appropriate activation energy to make certain changes especially to his staff.
The program needs to aspire to be better- the Big 10 is one of the top 2 conferences in football, we have or are in the process of investing huge amounts of capital into the facilities, and will soon be reaping even more $$ from the conference media deals. Having 3 seasons out of 4 with 3 or less wins shouldn’t be acceptable in the current environment. No way, no how should we be losing back to back home games to the likes of SIU and Miami of frickin Ohio. If a coach can turn around the worst program in major college football (Kansas) then there is the right match for NU, and the “intelligent“ people making lots of money need to adjust and figure it out or also be shown the door.
