Northwestern has been kinda funny over the years.
They're an absolute dogass football program most of the time and they pretend not to care. But whenever they get even a modicum of success, their fans get pretty rabid for whatever the duration of the success is.
I think they're a school that thinks they're too cool, too academically elite, to admit that they care about football. When you watch their reaction to success, however, it tells a much different tale.
I think Northwestern could come up with the $$ to keep Fitzgerald.
Oh, and I've been on campus a couple times at NW and I've been to Lawrence - yeah, there's really no comparison there. In fairness, there are few comparisons anywhere; Northwestern's campus is beautiful. Cold as a MFer, but located smack in the middle of downtown Chicago and absolutely incredible.
