With Fleck recruiting at the very bottom of the Big 10, why do you think this program was on a solid foundation? People seem to think that the problem with Fleck's management is his in-game coaching. While that's conservative, the problem is he a bad recruiter. In year 7, he's built a...

If we were Wisconsin, we'd fire Fleck. If we were Iowa, we'd fire Fleck. If we were Michigan, we'd fire Fleck. If we were Penn State, we'd fire Fleck. If we were Nebraska, we'd fire Fleck. But we're Minnesota. And we are just fine with a losing record in year 7 of Fleck's tenure. We're just fine...

Wisconsin recruits better than Fleck -- why are you surprised?

Where has he taken the team since then?

It's amazing that people can speak so confidently and ignorantly at the same time.

You know you can look up Kill's conference record each year if you want to, rather than just making up nonsense about kill only winning 1-2 conference games per season. By the way, it's year seven for Fleck. How many conference wins do you think he'll have? How many years did Kill miss a...

Kill took the worst team in the Big 10 and made it competitive. Fleck has taken a competitive team and turned it into a team that loses to Bowling Green and won't make a bowl game in year 7.

It's kind of like a cult. Don't pay attention to results or evidence -- stay firm in your beliefs! We'll never move forward with Fleck's basement-level recruiting. We had a few years with easy schedules where we could have jumped to the next level, but Fleck failed.

"Doing the best he can" is for Kindergartners. It's not for people making millions of dollars a year. If Northwestern, Iowa, and Wisconsin can win the West division, we should be able to too. Yes, Minnesota cannot recruit at the level of OSU -- one reason is because Fleck has blown too many...

He has not "done well" He recruits near the bottom of the Big 10 each year -- even being dead last in 2022. That's not "doing well" Using the culture and foundation that Kill built, he had several chances to win West titles, but admitted he choked. "It's all on me", he said. That's not...

"Success"

We were spoiled by a few years of easy schedules and holdovers from Kill. THIS is the team Fleck built. Bowling Green. Northwestern. Recruiting a QB who cannot pass, a right tackle who cannot block, and a defense that collapses under pressure. And next year, it's going to be worse. This...

Who would want to hire Fleck right now? What does he bring to the table? A record of bottom-level recruiting? An inability to win must-win games? A promise that his team will be the losing team in a major upset every single year?

"It's completely on me and I take complete responsibility...now can we end this press conference? I have $400,000 paycheck to cash for coaching this game" "Responsibility" without consequences or change is completely vacuous. Fleck can't recruit, and we've seen many times, he can't really...

"Fleck recruits at the same level as Illinois and lost to them -- why are you surprised?"

It should be unacceptable for a coach to lead to so many consecutive losses against our rivals. Fleck wasn't taking over for Brewster -- he was taking over a well-developed program from the Kill-era. The mess you see before you today is what Fleck has turned our program into.

The common excuse for PJ's terrible recruiting is that he "coaches up" Well, here's the result of his "coaching up" after a bye week. An Iowa drive consisting completely of avoidable penalties. PJ isn't a good recruiter and he's not a good coach. Time to move on.

#77 is just having a terrible game.

#77 looks completely outmatched. . .

Well, people have been complaining the whole year that the Gophers' offense was too predictable and too based on simple runs. How do you like the change?
