05:41 AM ET 06.19 | Northwestern officials and Jim Phillips are making progress on a new contract that will keep the athletic director in Evanston through 2020, sources told the Tribune. That date should sound familiar to Wildcat fans. It's the final year on the new deal that NU coach Pat Fitzgerald formally signed last month. Fitzgerald has been Phillips' most vocal advocate, saying "he has been spectacular for us."

Making progress is not signed sealed and delivered, but close. So, is this a FB or BB thread?

Yes, it is!
