"There are a lot of rumors out there but I believe that PJ Fleck will be named the Gopher head coach tomorrow.."

"Forget about Les Miles-All is not quiet on the Western Michigan front. I believe PJ Fleck news conference will be tomorrow."

Les is done as far as coaching goes if he can't convince Minni hooha.

Maybe Les to Western Michigan...maybe.

Everyone needs to face it: Les is a stale old turd now. No one wants his brand of boring ugly football that he is known for when you can get younger, more exciting coaches.

The game has truly passed Les by.

He's Mack Brown.

This is up there with that Dax guy getting Kristen Bell to marry him.

He was wise to impregnate her ASAP.

Don't know if he'll win there, but he'll substantially elevate their recruiting (by Minnesota standards). They could use it too because their class is currently ranked 14/14. He won at WMU by turning them into the best recruiting program in the MAC upon arrival.

I thought he would stay at western. Didn't think Minnesota would be the job he would jump at

Fleck would be an idiot to go to Minnesota. That whole program is a mess. His name will be even hotter next year if he can have another season like he just had. I'm not a PJ fleck fan boy but he can do much better.

Western Michigan's P.J. Fleck remains a primary candidate at Minnesota but there is no deal in place yet, according to a source. .

what's extremely sad is that even if they hired Les Miles, it would be a better hire than LSU made.

He has a senior QB, and NFL WR and was ranked in the top 25. I'd imagine he's topped out at WMU. Not sure he'll be much hotter. Not saying he can do much more at Minnesota, but it does give him P5 experience.
