What Big Ten Coaches are saying about: Minnesota
“This program’s going to take on Jerry Kill’s personality. To me, it was one of the best hires in college football. I’d much rather see him at Northern Illinois than Minnesota. He’s phenomenal. He’s got a great staff. They’ve all been together. They know what they want. Very similar to Iowa. They’re going to be very consistent. It’s not going to be about pomp and circumstance. It’s going to be about playing football and being the best man you can be."
"I think Jerry’s the right guy for that job, but it’s going to take some time. I hope the Minnesota fans can be patient. Certainly there shouldn’t be a lot of expectations in his first season at Minnesota, so anything over last year’s three-win season would be gravy."
"MarQueis Gray has spent some time at wide receiver, but I think he’s most effective at quarterback. It looks like he’ll get a shot to play quarterback."
"That’s a tough job. The new stadium has helped, but it’s still a tough sell to get kids at Minnesota.”
