I remember it well.
And there were calls for Randy Walker to be fired (all he did was turn NU into a
regular 6 or 7 game winner and leave Fitz with a program in position to take the
next step). Heck, I think a few people around here were questioning whether Fitz
had what it takes after just one year on the job.
It just goes to show that some of the fans are morons all of the time, and all
of us fans are morons at least some of the time.
