One of the reasons I keep hearing why Claeys should be named the permanent head coach is so that he can keep the staff in place. Has anyone checked with the current staff member to see if that is actually the case? These guys were loyal to Jerry Kill. Tracy Claeys is not Jerry Kill. It might be hard for some to believe but I am willing to bet that most of them do not have the lifetime dream to be an assistant coach at the University of Minnesota for the rest of their careers. My guess is that most of them would like to be a coordinator or a head coach at some time. They are not getting any younger and I would not be surprised to see some go on their own in the near future if Claeys is retained.
