Shitty thread regardless of forum
Yeah the truth is PJ at 19-22 is the best conference record in his first five years since Bernie Bierman was coach. Saturday sucked, but he's the right guy for the job, worth the extension, but he needs to have some tough convos for breakfast with his OC and ST coordinators when the season ends. Next year there will be a lot of new starters on offense, but a pretty manageable schedule, 2023 should have a good team but the crossovers to the East are brutal. We really wasted an opportunity these last two weeks
There's Washington, Colorado (who thought they had their guy in Mel Tucker, and poof he was gone), countless others in Gophers peer group who would wish for the continuity/stability that Fleck has brought to the Gophers. And this is before we even get to the Miami's, Florida State's, USC's, Texas' who can't find the right coach. Baylor made a good hire in Dave Aranda. Boise State seems to be getting better after a tough start.
There will come a time when we will be dissatisfied with good, but not elite and dump him just like Glenn Mason. Don't know what you got, til it's gone. If you think about it, the gophers dominated Iowa for the majority of 4 quarters in Iowa City. That's entertainment. A handful of plays that tipped the outcome in Iowa's favor. The continuity factor might be more important that we all think. I know it directly affects my workplace.
