The job is much better today than it was with Fitzgerald. Which is the point.

Last to adopt NIL collective, facilities stunk, terrible stadium, hard academic standards, hard to play in the portal. Chicago is a great city, but not going to resonate with a lot of kids from the south. Especially, again in the PAST when you’re a broke kid who can’t enjoy the city.

Since he left, they’ve adopted NIL and invested in facilities.

Furthermore NW has one of the worst historical win percentages. It’s always been a bad job.
