Not a caption but I wonder if that douchebag will ever get over it/himself. He actually could be a good likable coach.
Somebody wrap up a teddybear's leg in a cast and leave it in the pink locker room.
Agree. He seems like an okay dude and has worked magic at a crappy football school ...
Kirk you look great after all these years. My wife tells me I look like a tunafish, what do you think?
He's annoying but a good coach. His personality (the constant clapping and coachy-coach stuff on the sidelines) is such that you like him if he's your coach but annoyed if the opponent. He handled the tough situation taking over when Randy Walker died very well, especially for someone his age at the time (he was only 31 then).
In public he's rather complimentary toward Iowa and Ferentz. Who cares if he makes the game a huge point of emphasis for his team? Coaches can determine who they choose to make high priority.
so I jump ship in Hong Kong and work my way over to Tibet and get on as a looper on a course in the Himalayas...

KF: Donuts - want one?
PF: Iiiiiiii'd better not. I've got what doctors call a little bit of a weight problem. I used to grab bear claws as a kid - two at a time - and I'd get 'em lodged, right in this region here...

Fitz is a good coach, and a great fit for his alma mater, but I don't agree with the magic part. He's had some success but been pretty up and down. He also has failed to bring the Cats a BIG title, something both his predessesors did. His mentor Gary Barnett to Nwestern to back-back BIG titles and a Rose Bowl, in 95 and 96. Gary Walker led Nwestern to another title in 2000. Walkers untimely death in 2006 from a heart attack at age 52 opened the door for LB coach Fitz to take the reins. If there was a magic man at Nwestern it was Barnett, who took over a morbid football program, worse then what Fry inherited at Iowa.
Because they actually beat Iowa as a result of their try-hardiness at Fitz's wanting to beat Iowa. And I take offense to that.
If he's offended by Iowa's existence because he got hurt playing Iowa, then I'm offended that his team ever beats Iowa period, let alone watching his over the top rah rah bullsh** when they do.
Yeah yeah "If you don't like it, do something about it", but see I'm just a fan. You wouldn't want me to do something about it............
P.S. But I will if that's the option you give me.
No?
Sigh, fiiine....

"Your zone blocking is so sexy, I think I want to reach around and get a handful of your most firm cheek to see what it's like to be you....ready, go"
“I mean Kirk, you were backed up close to your own goalline and your guy called a naked bootleg. It’s my job to make sure my guy effs your guy in the A in that situation and I think we executed accordingly. If I were you, I would let your coordinator go in a couple years and bring in a new coordinator who will totally gang-rape your offense for like maybe 5-6 years. That would sure help me beat you more.”
Agree he's had success at NW. However, give credit when due; the table was set and it is still his system that Fitz follows today:
"VERNON HILLS, Ill. -- Randy Walker liked to say football coaches are the greatest plagiarists. Walker, the late Northwestern Wildcats coach, was himself a skilled copy Cat.
Some of the most important elements Walker brought to Northwestern -- the two-by-four emblazoned with "TRUST YOURSELF" that players touch on their way to and from the field, the program cornerstones of attitude and investment -- remain ingrained today and are things he picked up from others. It's the lessons behind the symbols that underscore Walker's impact, and why he's celebrated nearly a decade after his sudden passing from a heart attack on June 29, 2006, at age 52".
