Gene Chizik could win 4 straight BCS NCs and he still wouldn't be considered a top coach. I guess people forget that a HC is only as good as his or her assistants...

North fricking Western is gonna win the Big Ten this year.

And probably beat a better team in the Rose Bowl and Pat Fitzgerald will get the credit he deserves. I wish Ohio State could get him away from NU but that's never gonna happen.

I hope Luke Fickell is our Pat Fitzgerald.

fitzgerald is seriously awesome

completely off the radar of most CFB fans

i didn't think they'd keep their upward momentum when walker died, but damn they did

if walker were still alive, he'd be running shite at a top program

What was his record at Iowa State? One year doesn't make a coaching career, sorry.

yeah one year where you get the best player in CFB who takes over your team doesn't make you a great coach

I think they're better under Fitzgerald. he just utterly brings the fire.

If he has a damn good OC(I don't know much about the OC they have now) they will be a contender in the Big Ten for over 20 years.

Walker was certainly a great coach RIP.

Fitzgerald with the name he has built himself in the Midwest is a better recruiter and will only get better.

Northwestern is the Duke of the Midwest and will get some TALENT really soon. In four years they could be a national title contender.

If they excel this year, and get a few damn strong classes strung together, watch out.

I'm serious.

Especially if Ohio State gets hit somewhat hard.

Bowl bans scare players as you know.

they are hindered like all other elite academic schools who require athletes to be students

DTs and CBs are tough to find for top programs. it's really hard for them

Absolutely. But it only takes a few guys to say yes, and they could be there.

And Fitzgerald is a damn strong recruiter.
