per the Washington Post:
This leads to one big question: why Minnesota? Yes, there’s a sparkling new stadium and under-construction football facilities, and the Big Ten’s myriad television deals means every one of the school’s games will get a wide airing. But frankly, that place is a mess. Claeys was fired because of his intemperate public support of the 10 Golden Gophers players who were involved in a sexual assault investigation by the school, and his firing Tuesday did nothing to ease the sizable rift that exists between the team and the school’s administrators. In fact, it might have made it worse.
Fleck has done miraculous things at Western Michigan, namely turning the Broncos from a directional-school afterthought into a place where ESPN sends “College Gameday,” so it’s a great hire for Minnesota. But is it a good job for Fleck?
