Description
Pat Fitzgerald was fired as the head coach of the Northwestern Wildcats on Monday, and though this is Buckeye Talk and a podcast about Ohio State, that kind of Big Ten news merits a discussion. And there are Ohio State lessons involved with this from how the Buckeyes handled Jim Tressel and Urban Meyer in the past.
Doug Lesmerises and Nathan Baird discuss this mess from several angles:
(0:30) Reaction to the Fitzgerald firing
(10:05) How would Ohio State have handled this situation?
(22:06) The constant balance around the power of a football coach
(42:29) Where will the Northwestern football program go from here?
(50:00) A final wrap from Doug, including Fitzgerald's statement
