Fleck will have TCF rocking with Ski-U-Mah this fall and the previous coaches will be a thing of the past. Kaler might get fired in May at his review but we will move on.

#3 Augsburg Wrestlers beat #2 Ithaca in the Semi finals to move on to the finals and face #1 Wartburg this afternoon. Ithaca had several ranked wrestlers. 

Battle of the Burgs 1.0 at the NWCA Multi Divisional National Duals coming up this afternoon.

SCSU is in the DII finals

No way "insert coach x here" jumps into the Goofer dumpster fire.



You nailed it Sag!  +K

Shooter and Sid's jobs are safe.  :)

I think we underestimate that this is still a Big Ten job. There's only a handful of major conferences and getting the chance to take one over is going to have a lot of appeal for a lot of coaches, including ones we'd think might not be interested. And while you do have 50 years of misery to deal with and all that history, there's the flip side, which is any type of success will be greeted as if you're one level below Saban.

 Augsburg wrestlers took 2nd place in the National Duals. A talented Wartburg team took 1st.

PJ Fleck's Press conference is fantastic.

"When I'm losing they call me nuts, when I'm winning they call me eccentric".  Al McGuire  We'll see who we have in PJ Fleck.  Should be interesting!

Well at least kids won't need to learn a new slogan when GC lures them away from the U of M after a year and will only need to get new purple F.A.M.I.L.Y. bracelets.  Maybe Glenn and PJ could get a volume discount on them...or better yet...maybe Caruso has a trademark on F.A.M.I.L.Y. and will sue the youthful Fleck-er!  ;D

I was just waiting for somebody to make the Caruso / Fleck connection. I've been pondering it for a few days. I think Fleck might have the edge in craziness, but he also appears to be a kinder, gentler version of Caruso.

RE: Fleck

This guy seems like a weirdo.  Not really my cup of tea, but let's see what he can do.

By a quick count of the 2016 Gopher roster it appears to have 12 SR or RS-SR and assuming the 10 suspended players,even if suspensions lifted, do not return because of bad feelings for the administration does Fleck get Jr. College transfers or go straight to the recruiting trail & have a very young roster? 2016 had quite a few FR or RS-FR in the rotation.  Going the WMU route with 1-11 season followed by 8-5,8-5, 13-0 and the Rose Bowl  ??? 
And, the "Row the Boat" is copyrighted by WMU & Fleck, can he use it with the Gophers or go with a completely different mantra. He seemed pretty fixated with Ski-U-Mah at the press conference.
As of now they're on DOUBLE SECRET Probation!

Good question.  I won't link it here, but just looked at the Grand Rapids newspaper and it lists about a half dozen HS recruits, most 3 stars, who have already indicated they'd follow Fleck to Gopherville.  Claeys had some JC commits scheduled to start second semester I'm guessing - wonder how that will play out?  If they stay, and PJ gets a couple more, he could have a fair number of upper classmen.

The corner of F.A.M.I.L.Y & blowhard between MPLS & STP is going to be crowded.

6 total WMU recruits flipped to the Gophers last night. I watched it happen online and it was exciting because none of them visited the U but will follow Fleck to the Gophers. He is going to change things up in a hurry.

Add: Yes all are 3 stars.
