Jeremy Werner, writing for the Illini Inquirer, weighs in on the damage happening at Northwestern and the subsequent firing of head coach Pat Fitzgerald. All of it is stunning.

Often we want to paint people as black or white, good or evil. Most times, we as people are more complicated than that. Fitzgerald did a lot of good for Northwestern but now leaves embattled. Once seemingly forever golden, Fitzgerald now leaves a very gray legacy at his alma mater.

I could give a shit about Fitzgerald and Northwestern athletics, but what happened happened and he ought to be held accountable.
