re: Minnesota gives Claeys the axe

I agree that PJ Fleck would be a good-get, but there's not a lot of substance to these mentions. Fleck's name gets tossed out for every job, and while I don't doubt Minnesota's interest, I don't see why Fleck would bolt WMU for the disaster in Minnesota. Fleck can go ahead and dominate the MAC again, potentially take out Michigan State, and have some better options next season.
Additionally, Fleck and was with Tracy Claeys and Jerry Kill at Northern Illinois. I'm not sure the relationship between the three anymore, but I can't imagine talks about Minnesota would be very good.
The below tweets from Brett McMurphy wouldn't instill much confidence into me as a coach:

There's always talk about players being mad after a firing. How often have you ever seen a "mass exodus" after a coach has been fired? Have you every seen even ten players transfer after a coach has been fired?
Minnesota should go get Les Miles. He bring instant credibility and will soon have Minnesota on top in the Western Division. Wisconsin's academic standing is going down and people would rather play in a real city like Minneapolis instead of Madison.

The Minnesota players are not going to look attractive to peer programs/conferences for transfer. They will end up playing D2, or for schools that will look past their stupidity. Lousiville and Baylor come to mind.
The team protest/boycott threat ended the minute they gained access to the 80-some page investigative report and they learned about the actions of their teammates.
Claeys was naive to support them before he had the facts.
