And lets not forget the incident also included a 17 year old football recruit. That's someone Claeys is directly responsible for. I get that he can't control what 100 of his players are doing every night but the recruit, he better have a handle on who/what/where he is and when he's doing it. That's a direct failure on his part.
This.
Fleck is a bit of a wild card but his turnaround of WMU is really impressive and he is charismatic.
I remember laughing at the Row The Boat when it came out once he was hired...then he went 1-11 his first year and I continued to laugh. Then he goes 8-5 8-5 13-1. Oh...kudos to him for that one!
He legit changed the football culture at WMU in only a few years...both from players standpoint and fans standpoint (hiring stadium DJ and the RTB stuff).
Hopefully, he can do the same to the dumpster fire that is Gophers football.

lets be honest, was WMU ever really in that game, Wisconsin seemed to play down in the second half, they totally trashed them in the first , but whatever i didnt find it all that competative

When you are onside kicking with a few minutes to go, down by 8 points, I'd call that competitive.
Wisconsin was definitely better, but WMU represented themselves very well.

Re: Klieman a possible candidate for Gophers job
Now the WMU boards are starting to jump on the Coach K to WMU train.

All that really matters is if they lost as good to Wisconsin as the Gophers typically do.

SOURCES: Fleck to Minny done deal. WMU players held players only meeting Thurs. night and they are NOT happy. Some feel used and betrayed...
What did they expect?
Re: Klieman a possible candidate for Gophers job
Can the name of this thread now be changed to "Klieman a possible candidate for WMU Broncos job".
I feel that's the direction it will be going soon.
Re: Klieman a possible candidate for Gophers job
I still don't get what is so great about Fleck, he won a bunch of games against a weak schedule and hasn't really had a signature win as a coach. Seems like a strange hire for a university that hasn't really had a huge win since Mason.
