College football coach suspended after saying he would have dinner with Adolf HitlerA football coach at a state university landed in hot water after making the bizarre claim that he would enjoy sharing a meal with Adolf Hitler, the murderous German dictator who orchestrated the systematic killing of millions upon millions of innocent people, including six million Jews.Morris Berger, the offensive coordinator for Grand Valley State University in Allendale, Michigan, was asked by The Grand Valley Lanthorn what historical figures he would like to have dinner with.
