Three former members of Northwestern University's baseball coaching staff filed a lawsuit against the school on Monday, saying they lost their jobs for trying to report bullying and derogatory abuse by the team's head coach, who has since been fired. The ex-staffers say Jim Foster's coaching was rife with toxic and volatile behavior throughout the 2022-23 season, and that the school protected Foster after they filed a human resources complaint against him. Foster was sacked on July 13, just three days after football coach Pat Fitzgerald was dismissed because of a hazing scandal.
