No he wasn’t. We just insisted a large slow guy with no momentum was our best bet.

lol what? Gray was a legit NFL talent on athleticism alone. Leidner was like watching your dad do a vertical jump. Get out of here with lumping these players together.

No I don’t know offenses well which is what I stated. I am an average high school level player. Most posters here know way less than they want to admit. But I can watch the games and see how slow and incompetent things are. Your offensive theory is great, I’m all in. Except that the Gophs have...

No it was really bad with Leidner due to how bad (molasses) he was as a runner. You want to run RPO get a Streveler or a Gray (thought AK may be able to run but was wrong).

I’m not sophisticated enough in offensive schemes to say RPO is fully bunk but egad man it is slow and boring and predictable and MN doesn’t have the athletes to always “let things develop” and then make reads. Feels like it leads to a lot of 3-5 yard losses or zero gains when running. Then...

Not advocating that either. Again Fleck isn’t relevant in acknowledging Kill’s incompetence.

No I wouldn’t tolerate boring and bad football for years on end without question even if it’s delivered with a gee golly, propeller beanie, bashful dwarf, good ol’ boy schtick.

He can’t win anywhere with any staff. If he could he would be hired by a P5 program. He couldn’t even win here with the staff of his choosing. You are materially overestimating his competence.

Why are you referencing Fleck? I keep saying that isn’t relevant. Kill being a failure is completely divorced from Fleck. I am not a Fleck fan, but Kill was obviously incapable of the job, both in health and in competence. I agree this season is a failure but that is completely predictable...

Lol what is your deal dude? Do you hate Fleck or love Kill or all of the above or what? As said previously, this weird hyper-obsession with a failed B1G coach that had serious attitude problems while employed is jumping the shark mate. And acknowledging Kill’s failure is not advocating Fleck...

We have more starters available then most teams. This can’t be a crutch. I’m not calling for regime change but injuries are too far fetched when you have competitors in much worse shape performing as well or better.

Knowing Kill was a loser doesn’t make one a Fleck advocate. A change had to happen - Kill was a drag on an already abysmal program. It is cringey how many Kill posts are being put up. It’s weird and off-putting this hyper-fetish for a guy that already had his shot and failed.

This thread is titled “Jerry Kill”. Knowing Kill was not up to the task as Gophers coach is not synonymous with being a Fleck champion. Jerry Kill was unimpressive as coach here and, even if you don’t like the current coach, Kill needed to go (probably even earlier than he did) to give the...

Classic gophers.

Classic gophers.

I don’t agree he did very much. He did exactly what an avg coach would do. Salesman stuff is irrelevant. He was unlikable and also not stellar as a coach. Like a 0.0 WAR with him. His aw shucks Charlie Brown gee whiz pumpkin patch shtick was just as much of a shtick as Fleck or Brewster. I...

Fleck isn't relevant in discussing Kill's failures.

Decades and decades of the same thing in both football and basketball. Just constant buffoonery.

They were very slow and very boring and lost every rivalry matchup. It was time for a change which he failed to get through gracefully.
