CBS: 20 college football teams most impacted by cancellation of spring practice in 2020 (#11. Minnesota)

per CBS:

11

Minnesota

Minnesota is a mixed bag when it comes to returning production. It ranks 86th overall but 13th in returning offensive and 125th on defense. The problem is that while most of the key contributors on offense are back, offensive coordinator Kirk Ciarocca is not. He's now at Penn State, and in his place is Mike Sanford. The Gophers have improved each season under P.J. Fleck, finishing last season with 11 wins and a big win against Auburn in the Outback Bowl. But it's hard to keep rowing the boat when there's no water to put the boat in, and that's the position the Gophers find themselves in without spring practice. Also, I have a lot of concern for the assistants on Minnesota's staff, because, given Fleck's personality, I can only imagine the things he has them doing during this crisis.
