My guess is that another lousy basketball season and not even Carmody's 
friendship with Bienen will save him. By contrast, despite the blowout 
by Ohio State, the football program shows a lot of promise for next 
year, We have a QB, some better than decent supporting players and the 
probability that Fitzgerald will be able to make some changes on the 
defensive coaching staff. Had NU not self destructed in the first few 
minutes of the first quarter. it would have been much more of a game 
against the number on team in the country.
