Chip: Here's why Gophers coach P.J. Fleck got that $1 million raise

[BleedGopher]

Per Chip:

So why did P.J. Fleck receive a $1 million raise this past week?

The fear of falling behind rivals in the never-relenting arms race. This is standard operating procedure in college sports in 2022.

You might hate that explanation. You might think a raise is unnecessary and unwarranted. But you should not be surprised by it, if you've been paying attention to the new world order that governs college athletics.

The amount of people, even the media, that don’t understand the nature of these contracts is incredible to me. Good article.

So extend him a year and give Rossi as much as we can, but the million dollars additional for PJ and the raise for the OC? Neither was necessary even in today’s environment IMO.
