With one month remaining until the start of Northwestern's football season, head coach David Braun and his team are officially in fall camp and making final preparations for September.
The Big Ten Media Days in downtown Chicago have officially concluded after all 18 coaches and their players shared their thoughts on the upcoming season. Along with Coach Braun, Griffin Wilde, Caleb Komolafe and Robert Fitzgerald made an appearance to discuss their thoughts on the upcoming season.
After hearing from some of the biggest names on the roster, here are the biggest takeaways from the afternoon:
While easier said than done, Coach Braun laid out his vision for the future of Northwestern football. While he thanked the previous coaches of the 'Cats, he made it very clear that he wants to change the course of Northwestern football. He no longer wants the status quo of a mid-tier football team that makes a bowl game; he wants it all.
"What's been achieved over the last three decades under Coach Barnett, Coach Walker and Coach Fitz is something we will always talk about as a program," Braun said in his opening statement. "I have a level of appreciation of what has been accomplished. But there is also an acknowledgement and an 'and' proposition that we have expectations to do it better than we've ever done it before."
