By now, almost everyone has seen one of the clips of the Northwestern strength coach that go viral on Twitter seemingly every Saturday. His name is Alex Spanos, and he’s become the most famous strength coach in all of college football thanks to his relentless energy and the tight-fitting polo shirts that flaunt his massive biceps in any weather.
When Northwestern makes its first appearance in the Big Ten championship game this weekend, the FOX cameras inside Lucas Oil Stadium will assuredly find their way toward Spanos at some point or another. Once again, the country will get a glimpse of what the Wildcats’ players see every day: a man who lives and breathes his job of pumping up the team in everything it does.
