Re: Gophers 2014 season
Years ago, someone posted a video on here of Fleck teaching the Western Michigan fanbase how to row the boat. I thought it was hilarious and crazy and couldn't believe a head coach was taking it upon himself to create a new dance for home fans. But then...they got really good. So he can't be that bad of a coach, right? I mean, clearly he was doing some things correctly because a directional Michigan school doesn't just land randomly in a New Year's bowl game.
Does it just not translate to a conference that has the Ohio State, Wisconsin and Penn State? What is going wrong in Minnesota?
One other thing. I hate the Gopher's OOC schedule. It is so weak. I liked Kill as a Coach, but remember when he made them change the games against North Carolina to be against New Mexico State or something? I was like, "Come on, man..." Their OOC does absolutely nothing to prepare them for B1G Ten play. They will start every season 3-0, sell hope to their fanbase, and then win 1 or 2 conference games.
