More soulful: Fitz & the Tantrums or Pat Fitzgerald?

Northwestern football coach Pat Fitzgerald is affectionately called "Fitz" by Wildcat fans.
Which always makes me think of Fitz and the Tantrums, a soulful pop band I enjoy very much that is fronted by Michael Fitzpatrick. They'll be on CBS This Morning on Saturday. They're playing in Ames on Nov. 19 at Iowa State's Stephens Auditorium.
Which do you think has a better musical presence, Fitz and the Tantrums ...
or Northwestern's "Fitz?"
And the winner is ...
But that's no knock on Fitzgerald. It's pretty hard to top the Tantrums and their front man.
