In fairness, we’re two or three plays away from 4-3 and feeling pretty good. But you can’t deny Fitz is responsible for these games turning out how they have.

Referring to the fact that he went 1-8 in conference 3 of his last 4 years at NW

This is the apologetic stuff that is going to keep Fitz here longer.

I don’t care if it was close. He’s in wayyyy over his head

What's the alternative? Time to accept that there needs to be patience otherwise enjoy the endless spiral and reality that no coach wants to come to this shithole program no matter how much money you pay them. Given a short leash and shit resources. What the fuck do you expect?
