I'm not an attorney, but I'm pretty sure that the terms of his contract with Northwestern (aka "Car Wash U") govern the terms of his hiring and firing. The 14th Amendment covers due process as it relates to the government, but Northwestern is a private university, unrelated to state or federal government.

You really can't blame former players for circling the wagons. Their reputation and the reputation of the university they attended and no doubt love are at stake. Many of us would stand by that thing and those we love even when the offenses they are charged with are cruel and/or cowardly.
