Magary writing that basically made me start rooting for Northwestern

Nobody hates Northwestern. You don’t hate Northwestern. Just because Magary wrote a column on it doesn’t make it a thing. It would’ve been kinda cool had they won.

Oh, I forgot one notable other alum:

As a Vandy fan, I have one counterpoint:

How many sports reporters who went to Northwestern aren’t insufferable assholes? The only one I can think of is Rachel Nichols, who probably wanted to tell all of her classmates that they were insufferable assholes but didn’t because she’s too nice.

I’m rooting for Northwestern because I had a Northwestern Starter jacket when I was a kid and it was awesome. Also had a Charlotte Hornets one. God, Starter jackets were seriously the greatest.
