per The Gazette:
He showed wherever he went, including Minnesota, that he could mold programs into winners. There may not be a coaching staff in the nation that had greater continuity. Kill’s assistants followed him from stop to stop. Interim head coach/defensive coordinator Tracy Claeys has been with Kill for 21 years, and is highly regarded himself.
While Kill didn’t get Minnesota to a Big Ten title game or a bowl victory, his teams did get several wins that elevated how the program was perceived.
The 51-14 clubbing the Gophers gave Iowa last year in Minneapolis was the kind of thing the fans up there simply weren’t accustomed to experiencing. That came four games after Minnesota had left Michigan with a 30-14 victory, which broke a 6-game losing streak to the Wolverines.
