I can't imagine Fitzgerald survives hazing accusations

I'll be shocked if Fitz is still employed by the end of the week...

I agree. Only way he survives is if the accuser is determined to be non-credible.

At the very least, he'll be suspended while a thorough investigation is conducted.

The thorough investigation already occurred earlier this year, so I erred in making my earlier comment.

By Saturday evening, President Schill (what a name!) issued a statement announcing he was considering harsher punishment for Fitzgerald and made a mistake in suspending him for only two weeks.

My prediction is Fitzgerald will be hired for a position coaching gig in the NFL somewhere.

Seems like a bit of a rush to judgement on NW's part, but I guess we can wait and see. I'm sure if the football team hadn't shit the bed the past 2 years, he would still have a job.

Yet, the statue still stands in Ann Arbor......

I agree with Honeyman that Fitz still has a job if NW had a winning record for the past 2 years. I thought Fitz was on the hot seat if he didn't have a winning season at NW this season.

Wasn't this guy kicked out for this before? Check that, maybe I am thinking of the Rutgers head coach.
