This is a moment of reckoning for Northwestern University.
In the wake of a hazing scandal within its football program,
players on and off the field are immersed in a crisis.
In this episode, Lissa & Thom are joined by sports journalist
Mark Carman. Not only has he been studying the
evolution of college athletics for decades — he's also reported
from the Northwestern football sidelines for over ten years. Mark
calls former Wildcat coach Pat Fitzgerald a unicorn, but trouble
has been simmering for a while in the team's performance. Carman
has been a commentator and host for WGN Radio, Yahoo Sports,
FanSided, and now CHGO Sports Network.
