Miles as a backup if P.J says no (NHR)

[MARSHALL77]

Looks like P.J. Fleck will catapult from the MAC to the Big Ten - good YOUNG coach

Minnesota's first pick is PJ Fleck ( WMU) then former LSU coach Les Miles (pretty good fallback)

Reports indicate the school is looking to close the deal with Fleck. and make the announcement as soon as sometime today.

That's a good place for him. He's already used to freezing his nuts off. And the Big Ten west is pretty much just beat Wisconsin and you win it. Put up a couple of west champions years and move on to the SEC. Smart man.

Great hire. Class act, is a fit in socially conservative upper mid west, knows how to build, and has an almost new stadium to recruit to. He will be an interesting follow next 2 seasons.

Perfect move for the Golden Gophers , the hiring of a young and upcoming coach.

Does Fleck need an OC? I know where he could get one....wait....this year was a fluke. We are lucky to have such an outstanding coach.
