Per Brice:

On the heels of an eight-win campaign capped by the resounding win against Virginia Tech in the Duke's Mayo Bowl, Minnesota is turning toward the 2025 season with some new staff pieces.

The latest? Sources tell FootballScoop that P.J. Fleck is hiring Brady Keeran into the role of special teams analyst.

A former staff member at SEC program Kentucky, as well as Buffalo and Memphis at the Group of Five level, Keeran had been on staff the past two years at Eastern Kentucky, where under Walt Wells he helped the Colonels reach the 2024 FCS Playoffs.

Another young coach to get in and build that coaching tree. Current special teams coach is in his 60’s now.

Support this for sure. Always room for improvement here, especially on KO returns until the NCAA follows suit with the NFL and basically neuters that part of the game.

Our special teams has needed more attention for years. I hope it pays dividends during the season.
