All Things P.J. Fleck Rumor Mill Thread - Listed as Candidate for Other Jobs

[Dave H]

IMO, Fleck's brand/culture/philosophy in his mind is meant for more than a middling college football market. That's why there was interest in UCLA...not necessarily for the program but for the locale. If Covid hadn't have happened, we'd be on year 2-3 of our next coach.

Who said there was interest? There was one rumor that almost no one bought because UCLA has no money. But ok...

 

[Some guy]

Time to increase the buyout!

I’m good with it. But don’t increase his buyout to leave

We would be morons to fire him but if he wants to go let him go…


That’s where I’m at

 

[Some guy]

I made it up.

So he is 9th and we are going to finish between a tie for 5th and a tie for 8th

What a scandal

Now somewheee between a tie for 5th and a tie for 7th

 

[Dave H]

PJ’s salary and buyout both outperform his coaching performance without a doubt. His agent has played dipshit Coyle like a drum.

Not very good at math huh. Too many concussions during those "thousands of snaps in college football" that you use to justify your terrible takes?

UCLA coaching candidates: 8 names who could replace DeShaun Foster after firing​

P.J. Fleck, Minnesota head coach​

P.J. Fleck has already established himself as a strong coach in the Big Ten Conference; however, he may have already hit the program's ceiling with Minnesota. A move to UCLA could potentially open up more resources for the coach with a career 90-62 record.

Fleck has been with Minnesota since 2017 and has a 60-40 record with the Golden Gophers across nine seasons. He has led the program to four straight bowl victories and is 6-0 in bowl games with Minnesota.

UCLA talked to PJ last time around, right? Or that was the rumor anyway.

Yes. And it's an even worse job now than it was then. Zero chance.

 

[hello-world]

Yes. And it's an even worse job now than it was then. Zero chance.

Yeah I'm not sure I understand the 'more resources' comment.

 

[swede2]

Yeah I'm not sure I understand the 'more resources' comment.

Right. I believe it was reported or rumored that UCLA couldn't or wouldn't offer PJ even what he was making here. They assumed he could be had strictly for the LA allure.

 

[beavergopher]

Yeah I'm not sure I understand the 'more resources' comment.

I take that as fertile local recruiting.
