That would be my guess, it’s way too late to do a traditional coaching search. But I’m not sure who in his staff will survive the firing and want to stay and be the interim.
Yeah the people with better resumes are probably looking for interviews outside Northwestern now. The interim will be someone green looking to build their resume.
Gonna be a long year for the Wildcats
People with better resumes are getting ready to start their own fall camps!
Sounds like he was “old school” in that toxic way that coaches can be. Building a sports team by traumatizing teenagers is some retrograde bullshit, and hopefully the “leaders” who condone it are a dying breed.
I will say I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this is finally coming out in the Portal era. It’s almost like it was a terrible idea to give petty megalomaniacs complete control over a dedicated athlete’s athletic and educational options.

So sad to see a union buster go out like that
