per STrib:

Coyle, who has been on the job for three months and is entering his first season leading the department, told the fans gathered around the University of Minnesota building “We want to win, I’m a very competitive person.“

“I’ve had a chance to talk with all of our coaches and spend time with them,” Coyle said, “and I made it very clear we’re in the Big Ten. We want to compete at a high level. We want to compete for Big Ten championships and put ourselves in position to play for special postseason opportunities.

“Our Olympic sports are doing a phenomenal job. We’ll continue to support those programs and help them grow. But there is no question we want football, men’s basketball, men’s hockey, women’s basketball, those programs, to compete at a high level.”

So, we're moving to division 3? [emoji41]
 


As opposed to all the other ADs, who hated winning and thought it was a pointless exercise.
You're post is wrong
maybe they wanted to win, but Maturi got all weak in the knees when he talked about FB. Just a list of can'ts.
He gave up on FB and just hoped we would not be terrible
!!

However, at this point Coyle is talking. No AD has ever said they don't want to win. This is such a non-story.
