P.J. Fleck was on the Sports Huddle at 11:20 a.m. via a very brief Sid Hartman interview that was recorded following Fleck’s press conference on National Signing Day. The couple questions that Sid asked were recruiting-related and one was related to upcoming opponents in the fall.
1) Sid wanted to know what coach Fleck thought of this year’s recruiting period and class:
“We looked at it as an opportunity to get players from Western Michigan University . . . most of the guys from Western Michigan had Big 10 offers . . . We had an elite class for us,” Fleck said.
He also spoke positively about the out-of-state recruits that were signed, without elaboration. He didn’t comment on the Minnesota recruits; but I didn’t take it as slight by Fleck because it was a brief interview and he wasn’t asked about the in-state recruits.
2) Sid asked about the Gopher’s 2017 schedule:
“We have a demanding schedule . . . (we’ll) take one opponent at a time,” Fleck answered.
Go Gophers!!
