Re: Klieman a possible candidate for Gophers job
What is also weird about this whole situation is much of this started when Kill stepped down as head coach at UM due to health reasons but then resurfaced elsewhere in football/athletics and is now recently hired at Rutgers as an OC. He seemed well liked at UM. Maybe he says let's do it again (and insists on Claeys as his assistant again)! But, I think he recruited most of the perpetrators of the current fiasco so maybe not. This fact does not seem to be getting any press that Kill is not getting any negative publicity for the players he recruited.
Also weird that NDSU has many former coaches that are qualified to be a head coach at the UM - and some are even over qualified due to their NFL experience. Why doesn't the UM have any out there? And we all melted down thinking Wyoming was the place to go for coaches to disappear.

Kill stated he won't step foot back on UM campus when Claeys was fired. I think the feeling is mutual after Kill stepped down and then went on to other places. That ship has sailed.....

It's Fleck's job if he wants it.

I doubt it

Claeys is the one that has fallen the most in all of this and I think Kill owes him one.

Rutgers is in the Big10 and will probably end in at UM to play at some point.

Maybe he'll phone in the play calls from Jersey. :)
