Required Viewing For Gopher Fans - Fleck on the new contract

[RememberMurray]

I would like to watch more Minnesota kids on my schools team. I can watch the Pros otherwise.

Wow... we'd hate to lose a loyal fan like you.

 

[RememberMurray]

This is great for recruiting!

This is home indeed PJ Fleck!

He is smart not to chase the money and glitter. This is the hire of a lifetime.

He won't be short on money. Glitter must not be his thing.

Despite pretending it hasn't been, college football has been professional sports for a long time.

Now the whole roster will be from Illinois in 4 years.

There are 31 Minnesotans on the roster. 13 from Illinois. Give it up.

What happened to the Sixties

The free love generation got old(er) and some have gentrified. Many are probably popping viagras right now.

 

[Oregon Gopher]

Listening to him talk about his love for the state and the people may have resulted in the first time I’ve ever had tears in my eyes while listening to a coach speak.

 

[Dano564]

I like PJ in that he seems to be speaking from his heart, or at least, of the top of his mind, which is usually tied to the heart when speaking this free flowing.

I'm so impressed by how he's managed to make the football team so strong academically and socially.
If you are Joan Gable, how do you not say "yes, I want to keep that person in our program"?

When in your life was there the requisite amount of Minnesotans?

Doesn’t St Thomas have a board you can post on about your kids 8th grade stats and tell them how he is better than Spencer Rattler cause one time at summer camp he threw the ball through the tire and rumor has it spencer tried at a different camp and actually hit the nurse in the back?

If there iis such a board, he's burnin' it up... The kid is buried on the depth chart. Looks like 4-5 string at best. That can't sit will with him.

Good thing you've got St. Thomas to watch now... Maybe they'll start siphoning off some of all that Minneosta talent that goes off to NDSU.

Now we know the inspiration for the anthracite jerseys.

I think this is sarcasm?

One thing is for sure Coach is consistent.

He has said he loves it here from very early on.

As far as I know Grinnin' Glen still calls this home too, and this ain't OH-IO.

As for the Billds, I'm a Georgia transplant and have made Minnesota home for 30+ years. Mrs. Billd is originally from Iowa so she knew what we were moving to as per climate. If the Halloween Blizzard did not send us back south nothing will due to weather.

My comment to complaining natives on the winters is that "I'm here on purpose. I guarantee it's warmer 1000 miles to the south."

Coach and Heather are obviously here on purpose too. I can relate on multiple levels as well.

Luke 12:48- "To the one whom is given much, much is required."

Similarly: From to book of Boba Fett to the Tauntans “Luke, with great power comes great responsibility.”

I thought that was from Spiderman.

He won't be short on money. Glitter must not be his thing.

He IS a “…run the ball, stop the run …” Coach. A real BT Football Coach. He will continue to know his players, and his: “…next man up culture is the sharing of responsibility for the good of the team. It is what the U of M needs this year and for the future. It is one of the greatest things he can teach his student athletes to prepare them for life and some of the surprises, situations, setbacks and challenges for football and life after football.

This is exactly what a great university looks for in it’s coaches, professors and educators.

 

[hungan1]

He is a teacher first, a coach second.

Anyone know a good drywall repair guy? I did some damage to my home after watching this.
