Pat Fitzgerald's time at Northwestern has come to an end.
FILE - In this Nov. 24, 2018, file photo, Northwestern head coach Pat Fitzgerald watches his team during the first half of an NCAA college football game against Illinois in Evanston, Ill. No. 21 Northwestern set to face No. 6 Ohio State in the Wildcats’ first Big Ten championship game appearance on Saturday, Dec. 1, 2018, in what could be a signature moment for a consistent winner trying to earn its spot among the conference’s elite.
Northwestern, which announced the suspension on Friday, said it did not find “sufficient evidence” that Fitzgerald or members of his coaching staff were aware of the hazing. However, investigators did conclude that there were “significant opportunities” for the coaches to “discover and report the hazing conduct.”
The day after the summary was released, an anonymous former Northwestern player described the alleged hazing acts to The Daily Northwestern, characterizing them as “vile and inhumane behavior.” The player also claimed that Fitzgerald was aware of the ongoing hazing and even encouraged it. “The confidential report concluded that while there was corroborating evidence that hazing had occurred, there was no direct evidence that Coach Fitzgerald was aware of the hazing. In determining an appropriate penalty for the head coach, I focused too much on what the report concluded he didn’t know and not enough on what he should have known,” Schill said.
