Northwestern’s President has re-opened the investigation into Pat Fitzgerald and the hazings

Northwestern University president Michael Schill has issued an update on the investigation into hazing allegations surrounding the Wildcats football program and head coach Pat Fitzgerald, and it sounds like more punishment could be coming.

Schill admitted that he was “focused too much on what the report concluded [Fitzgerald] didn’t know.” Instead, he should have been focused on “what he should’ve known.” Schill then stated that he “just learned the name” of the player who first reported allegations.

The investigation was confidential, so he was not aware before, and he has since spoken to his family.

It sounds like the school will continue to look into the matter, and they absolutely should. Fitzgerald was suspended for only two games and moments after the decision, more stories began to come out. One report says Fitzgerald absolutely knew about it.
