Regarded as one of the top recruiters in the country, Baseball America rated Fitzgerald as the No. 7 assistant coach in the nation in 2018, while D1Baseball.com ranked him as the 17th best recruiter in college baseball in 2016. In a survey of 90 head coaches conducted by Baseball America in 2020, Fitzgerald was rated No. 7 on a list of assistant coaches from across in the nation that will one day make the best head coach.

Since he arrived at DBU in 2013, the Patriots have landed a league-high 58 players on the Missouri Valley All-Conference Team that were recruited and signed by Fitzgerald. On the national level, seven Patriots have earned All-American honors, while seven freshman have been tabbed as Freshman All-Americans. Read more.
