Northwestern University fired head football coach Pat Fitzgerald on Monday after an investigation into alleged hazing turned up "sufficient" evidence that coaches knew about the misconduct and Fitzgerald, who had coached at the Chicago-area school since 2001, should have known. This came after the student newspaper, The Daily Northwestern, published over the weekend a former player's graphic and disturbing details and experiences with hazing in the football program.

To get more information on the decision on the university's decision to fire Fitzgerald and discuss the wider impact of that decision on the college football landscape, Kevin Sheehan was joined by Matt Schick, of Big Ten Radio & ESPN, to break it all down.
