Nathan Deen, the Georgia Southern beat writer for the Savannah, Ga. newspaper, got an interview with Fritz Friday night and tweeted some of the comments:
The pertinent tweets:
1) Willie Fritz said he was attracted by the idea of building a winner at #Tulane.
2) Fritz: “It was a tough decision. My wife and I have really enjoyed Statesboro, and everyone’s treated us extremely well."
3) Fritz: “It’s the opportunity to do something that’s never been done there before."
4) Fritz: "(@TU_Dannen ) knows it’s going to be quite a chore, and he felt like I was the right guy for the job."
5) Fritz's contract with Georgia Southern states his buyout drops from $800,000 to $100,00 because Brooks Keel left the school this year
6) Ga Southern AD() Kleinelin says Fritz probably won't coach bowl game.
If he does coach the bowl game, I will be there to cover it in Mobile.
