Not that it matters in the grand scheme, but the first wave of Fleck commits took MN's class from 77 to 49th overall. He had a solid WMU team, at least as good as Minnesota this year. Add in a couple of B1G caliber athletes and you have a competitive team. No difference than Bohl really recruiting the same kind of kid at Wyoming as he did here with a few higher end recruits. You get kids that buy in and fit your system, they will run through walls for you. Look at NDSU's success.

So many of us are so quick to talk up recruits we land, "he could play in the B1G", etc...until someone else recruits them. Then all I see is "they can't win with FCS kids!". So, which is it?
