why a change in Evanston is needed

In 11 conference games, the Cats have been outscored by 177 points, which is an average of 16.1 points per game. Moreover, they lost at home to Brown, an Ivy League school.

Here's the list of the teams that NU has beaten, Illinois Benedictine, Savannah State, Arkansas State, Western Michigan (road), Howard, Chicago State (road) and UT Pan American.

Not too good, that's for sure.
