Fleck: "We couldn't find our groove and that falls on my shoulders" (press conference video)

Can you guys ask next time "Why do you guys shut down the offense after you tied the game, especially when you guys couldn't run the ball the whole game?"

Taking Responsibility without consequences means nothing. Until he starts giving up a game check when he says that, he should save the BS.

This guy is racking up losses as a double digit favorite

PJ will always take the blame.

But this was on the Offensive play makers 100%.

PJ likes to pretend to take the blame.

I believe this makes Fleck 2-19 when trailing at half.

What does that even mean?

It's ok, because we are 19-0 at culture. Roe the boat. Ski-u-mah.

It means he’s disingenuous when he says this which is absolutely true.

We were 9.5 point favorites at kickoff.

Go Gophers!!

Probably take at least 7 points off that if Vegas knew Mo wasn't playing.

What would being genuine look like you?

Some people prefer the Frost style. Blame the players, other coaches, fans and hoodies.

An admission of something tangible he wishes he had done better.

You want game plan stuff? Without that it's not taking responsibility?



But but saying he takes responsibility ... isn't that?

Maybe this movie will help...

Make sure to apply this judgment to yourself the next time you goof at work, Champ

It stirred something in me

 

[BilldGopher]

It stirred something in me

As a fan just disappointed in the chasm, which is defined as "a deep fissure in the earth, rock, or other surface," between today and the first four games. I know very well the team feels this too.

The Billds sat through every game in the Brewster years and this is not comparible. GH however does provide an outlet to express joy as well as sadness over what happens over 12 Saturdays each fall.

Today sucked but as some have noted there are still 7 games left, where at least right now both Illinois and PSU are looming bigger with great reward if the Gophers win. Just blowing off some steam in hopefully a light-hearted manner.

As for stirring something for you GNYC, glad to help.

Maybe he should have told the media that he read the team the wrong children’s book & that is on him.

Maybe you have to be there, but the children’s book thing seems awfully patronizing.

Yeah, it is a strange pre-game ritual.

Do you give up your paycheck every time you make a mistake at work?

No, but if I have an unexpectedly bad result, I am expected to provide a more specific analysis of what went wrong and what I plan on changing than a generic "I take responsibility, that's on me".

I'm sure PJ has plenty of specific analysis in-house. He doesn't have to share that with the media.

All the Brew games? Good gosh, are you still convalescing?

Like the post and perspective. If nothing else we won today and beating the large mammal who resides in Champaign- Urbana will be the salve we need
