Pundits also are more aware of the Gophers program. Kill will become the first Gophers coach in a decade to appear Friday on the Lemming Report, a CBS Sports Network show.
And Kill, who won Big Ten coach of the year honors, will be up against Ohio State's Urban Meyer, Florida State's Jimbo Fisher and Alabama's Nick Saban for the show's coach of the year award.
"The other ones are major powers -- Ohio State, Florida State and Alabama. Minnesota doesn't have that drawing power, but (Kill) still had a great year," Lemming said. "When you take everything in perspective, he probably had the best year. He had much less talent than the other schools. He did a remarkable job hanging in there with the powerhouses."
