Fleck to Minnesota as they fired their coach over his "unhelpful" remarks about the player boycott. FootballScoop says not going to happen for what that's worth.

I don't think he should have been fired. Administrations already seem to think coaches have 100% control of their players. But, his players sure were not Boy Scouts.

Chip Kelly would really shake things up in that division.

If anyone takes that job, they better acknowledge the AD and University President that hired them will be gone in about 2 years. I'll save ya the guesswork, essentially he'll be auditioning for the new AD with maybe one year before they want to bring in their chosen guy. It gets annoying to say the least.

Well it's either side with your players and keep their trust or not side with them at all, lose the faith of the locker room, and then get fired because the players mutiny against you which make you look worse and ultimately get fired within the next year or two or heck, even be asked to resign right on the spot because you "lost the locker room." That coach was put in a no-win situation and would love to see someone else handle that situation differently. I say it like this, if you knew your employee was innocent and had a situation occur, would you side with him or sell him out?

The more I think about it the more I like that the Minnesota President basically told the players that their behavior was deplorable and unacceptable regardless of whether charges were filed.

I liked what Kill did there I just think it's rare a school goes back to the same well again for coaching talent. And as someone else mentioned Fleck and Claeys are connected.

Good luck to him. I really thought he'd get a better job than that. Minnesota was a power a hundred years ago, but has been pretty irrelevant for the last 50. I think Fleck can win there, however, and the West of the B1G is pretty wide open right now. Wisconsin is the power, followed by Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, and Northwestern, with the order varying by year, and then Illinois and Purdue bringing up the rear.

I'm thinking that this could be a good stepping stone for PJ. If he does well there, he could get a really good job next. This guy is 36 or so, he has a bright future if he doesn't flame out. Just think how many games he could win as a head coach if he can keep up his entusiasm. He is one heck of a motivator and his recruiting prowess is off the chart. It will be interesting to see if he can keep that up at the next level. I think he will.

He took the wrong job, he won't be able to get the kids he needs to win the B1G Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes Back to Top L.C.

It's always possible, but I think the only person that ever coached there and moved on was Lou Holtz, who put in two years there. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top Showing Replies:   1 - 25  of 89 Posts Jump to Page:   1 | 2 | 3 | 4    Next > View Other 'Ohio Football' Topics                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               WHO'S ONLINE There are 150 Active Visitors on BobcatAttack.com 150 Guests 0 Registered Users There are no other users looking at this page.
