    Northwestern’s motion to dismiss the wrongful termination lawsuit brought by former coach Pat Fitzgerald was denied today, Fitz seeking $130MM.

    Hazing he was unaware of. It clearly wasn’t the publicized allegations as no charges for assault were ever made or followed up on. People will sometimes sign statements they don’t wholly agree with if the alternative is a long and costly legal battle or the outcome is uncertain or there would...

    A normal person would say with typical ***hole-level hazing as occurs in MANY organizations to this very day would say, don’t let it happen again. Warning, slap on the hand. If it was criminal-level as alleged, he’d be gone for cause. Use your brain.

    You never say what hazing is, in your opinion. Are there different levels, in your mind? Assault, for example. There’s verbal, and there’s knocking someone into a coma. There wouldn’t be an employed teacher or coach or manager in the country if unfounded allegations get people fired. Get...

    They could have very easily rolled over on Fleck and maybe would have if they were looking to unload him. He’s still in the good graces of Mr Coyle and the BOR.

    You don’t know what happened at Northwestern. I don’t know. The players know. They give conflicting reports. What I do know is it in terms of criminal-level hazing was ascertained to be mostly BS or unprovable by law enforcement or college investigators - or as reported or known about by...

    I agree that if it occurred grown males a**-grabbing, doing the carwash, doing naked pull ups is totally inappropriate. It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous. It’s full-on quasi-gay behavior, not that there’s anything wrong with that. What’s worse than hazing? Ignoring or exacerbating...

    The things we get upset about…. As bad as teasing, taunting, harassing, and hazing can be I wouldn’t expect any administrator, educator, manager, or coach to understand or know about, even a tenth of it - with the caveat if discovered or reported something should be investigated and actually...

    Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell will return to coach the Badgers in 2026

    Ya never know… I’m trying to recall Claey’s approach to deferring; cut against conventional wisdom as I recall. He is an interesting dude and salt of the earth as they come. I liked him.

    Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell will return to coach the Badgers in 2026

    Partially self-inflicted. They brought a hobbling QB1 back way too early from his knee sprain and he reaggravated his injury. I don’t know how or why they thought the guy could play. Pretty inexcusable to put him out there in that shape. Item #38 on why fans have turned on that regime.

    As of Nov 7, 2025 still no charges filed, to my knowledge. Has there even been a legitimate investigation of the alleged sexual abuse (I don’t consider the former attorney general for hire quick and dirty review in that group). I’d guess many have garnered six figure settlements regardless of...
