Row the Boat.

Nekton.
P.J. Fleck brought his own lexicon with him from Kalamazoo to Minneapolis.
He added another buzzword during a press conference Monday, defining “Purpose 3” after taking questions on the Gophers’ quarterback competition and the state of their receiving corps.
“Each quarter of the year we have a new ‘Purpose 3’ and those are the three things we focus on,” he said.
But while the University of Minnesota football coach has brought a new vocabulary to the program, Fleck says he isn’t looking to simply graft his own ethos onto the Gophers.
He wants his own culture to become a core part of Gophers football.
“Instead of saying, ‘yeah, coach Fleck brought this culture in here,’ no, no, it’s our culture now,” Fleck said during a press conference Monday. “By the end of the spring, we want it to become our culture, where everybody understands it, gets it.”
After just six months on the job, Fleck says he’s seeing the effects first hand.
“When you talk about cultural sustainability, that’s what we meant when we talked on Big Ten media day, and to be able to have some things happen in the last six months I think shows the growth and shows how our players are really letting the culture dissolve inside of them,” he said.
