Fleck on Perich: “we knew during the season that he was leaving”; says he received a $2 million package to join the hugely-funded Ducks

About mid-season and thereafter, some teammates, in reference to the Echo HS product, were only commenting, "well, Koi is Koi." I thought that might be an indication he was not connected and would be leaving the squad. If you don't want to be here; leave.

Koi can be Koi when Freshman Koi is closing games with picks and making plays every Saturday.

When sophomore Koi's big splash plays are more rare some of your antics are harder to stomach.

Like most things in life, the better you are, the longer leash you have.
 


Vikings linebacker legend Chad Greenway was on KFAN. He was asked about how he was advising his high school star basketball daughter's choice of schools. He said NIL.

That is how you do things. Consumers vote with their dollars to show what they value. Go with who.values you.

College ball on TV to millions of viewers rakes in the cash. The players, labor, should be compensated, a piece of the pie.

Pay to see a 21 year old music or movie star but then football players generating millions before millions of viewers are expected to not get paid?

Perich has to go where he is valued. I am thankful he did give Minnesota his lower cost years over other schools.

He did give his loyalty to Minnesota when he had many other choices.

Now taking a massive haircut to stay at MN is not a sane option Go get paid.

Agree

All else being equal I want him on my team




Oregon can burn 2 million on an inconsistent player more than Mn can

Especially when it’s possible two years 2 million per year is bigger than his nfl contract might be!

Do you know who does not say that to their own children?

The wealthy.

The wealthy always support the value of a college education and the college experience to their own children.

Indeed, Oregon's ranked as the 15th best school in the country and Minnesota comes in at 24. So he's leaving for a better education and getting paid $2 million dollars. With my Edina and Augsburg education I would say this was a win for him. Wouldn't you agree?

I hate break this to you but Oregon is not even close to Minnesota as far as academics go.

Oregon the 15th best academic school in the country? What is your source?

I generally dislike college rankings because all schools have a different focus. However, I’ve never heard of Oregon cracking the top 50 in any discipline. (I concede there might be one). The often quoted US News and World Report ranks them at 112 for all Universities, 54 for top public schools, and 183rd best value.

They may be regarded as top 15 for athletics, or party school, but that’s about it.

Either way in my opinion you have to take $2 million.
 

If PJ knew he was leaving what the hell was he doing playing him in the bowl? A returning safety could have used the experience.

Perhaps staying loyal to him as he did commit to play a 2nd year with the Gophers. Both parties fulfilled their end of the deal.

What hell do you know loyalty. That is a forgotten word in todays college football scene.
