Northwestern has fired Pat Fitzgerald following reports of hazing within the football program.
Fitzgerald, who had been Northwestern’s head coach since 2006, wasinitially suspended for just two weeks
“The decision comes after a difficult and complex evaluation of my original discipline decision imposed last week on Coach Fitzgerald for his failure to know and prevent significant hazing in the football program,” Northwestern president Michael Schill wrote in a statement.
The Daily also “obtained images of whiteboards labeled ‘Runsgiving’ and ‘Shrek’s List,’ containing a list of names indicating players that the player said needed to be ‘ran.’” ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg reported Sunday that a former player sent him an image of that whiteboard and said that whiteboard “was in the middle of the locker room for all eyes to see throughout my entire time in the program.”
