Good/bad news for NU Sports

<p>Castillo and Cofield are playing in the NFL (Howard was an All-America and would be playing in the NFL except for suffering a degenerative condition which cut his career short).</p>

<p>Last week was good and bad for NU sports.</p>

<p>The bad news: AD Mark Murphy left the university is and now the new CEO for the GreenBay Packers.</p>

<p>Murphy was a very good AD and he will be sorely missed.</p>

<p>The good news: Colby’s contract was not renewed and Coach Fitz is looking for a new DC (rumor is that the new DC will have the power to bring in his own staff).</p>

<p>Colby served as the ‘Cats DC for 6 years and was never able to create even decent defense (to go along w/ the high-powered ‘Cats O) even tho he (at one time) had players like Luis Castillo, Barry Cofield, Loren Howard and Colby Clark on the same D-line.</p>
