PJ Fleck inks new 7yr contract through 2029

DOUG SAMUELS         20 HOURS AGO

PJ Fleck has signed a new contract that aims to keep him with the Gophers through 2029.  The contract amounts to a new seven-year deal. No financial terms have been disclosed.

Fleck recently wrapped up his sixth season at Minnesota, and holds a 43-27 record with the program.  Those 43 wins are good for fifth in school history, and his winning percentage is third best among the nearly dozen Gophers coaches that have been there at least 45 games.

Fleck shared the following statement in the school's release:

"This is all about cultural sustainability. We have talked about that from day one, and this new contract is a commitment to continuing to change our best academically, athletically, socially and spiritually. It is also a commitment to our elite staff and our tremendous fans. During the last six years, we have been able to do some amazing things at Minnesota, some of which have not been accomplished in more than 115 years. It is a tremendous honor to lead this football program, and our goal is to compete for championships every year. We are so grateful to the Board of Regents, President Joan Gabel, Mark Coyle and our staff for allowing us to do so. Heather and I and our family love living here and we are excited to continue on this journey with the entire state of Minnesota." 

Fleck and the Gophers put together an 8-4 season this fall, marking their third straight season of at least 8-wins.

This guy seems like he's fun.

EXCLUSIVE from @byajperez: Minnesota football players describe the culture under coach P.J. Fleck as toxic since his arrival in 2017.The term “cult” was used by players, who also recall the “Fleck Bank”
Spoiler

Over the last month, Front Office Sports interviewed several former players and staff members about Fleck’s six seasons as the Gophers’ head coach. They described an environment fraught with intimidation and toxicity and referenced the “Fleck Bank” — a system that allowed players with enough “coins” to get away with positive drug tests, and other violations of team rules. 

 

The Fleck Bank tracked community service — including visiting patients at the University of Minnesota Medical Center with Fleck — and was a way to keep tabs on players’ studying habits, multiple former players said. Two former players said those who provided information on other players were given Fleck Bank credits.

I make fun of a lot of people in sports.

I've read the stuff regarding this burgeoning "controversy" and if Minnesota does anything but ignore it all, they deserve what they get when his departure leads to that program plunging back into the nether regions of the sport. Newsflash: Ex-players that didn't get as much PT or got pushed out of a program will usually have an axe to grind with the HC.

Successful coaches are usually egotists who have processes for managing their rosters, whether up or out for players, as well as keeping tabs on them. His approach seems ridiculous, but I'm not reading anything that causes outrage. 

I don't like the guy, but I respect his results as a coach and this shit looks like more cancel culture manufacturing than anything. I reserve the right to change my mind if more comes out that tangibly shows the guy as dangerous versus just a cringeworthy douche.

This is the third time the same guy has pushed this story as breaking news. If there was anything to it, the MSP media (which easily has the worst college sports media coverage in the Big Ten and has already flushed out at least 2 massive scandal in the U of M athletic department) would have pounced on it. 

 

Worth noting: 1. Fleck took over a program where the last coach was fired for player mutiny2. Hes the most successful Minnesota coach of the last 80 years3. No players who complained went on recordIt is possible some of former players simply couldn't handle expectations 🤦‍♂️ https://t.co/fTizxpbTqX

That story is a grade A nothingburger.  The guy is Tony Robbins with a whistle- moose out front shoulda told ya- but a few anonymous anecdotes of cringeworthy practices is not a scandal.

Serious inspirational/motivational moment on the point after attempt in the 4th quarter from Fleck:

Casey O'Brien!That's it. That's the tweet.

 

 

"That's what college football's all about."Four-time cancer survivor Casey O'Brien just got his first hold for @GopherFootball.It was perfect, and so was everyone's reaction.

Here's a piece Gameday on him a few weeks ago.  What a badass.

 

Don't know if anyone remembers this guy from 2019, but he continues to fight the good fight.  He's on his 8th go against cancer now and is asking for help (I think for the 1st time).  

https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-casey-obriens-fight-against-cancer?utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet_ai&utm_content=amp9v2&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=twitter

This dude has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for cancer causes, but is up against it now.  It's great to see people rally around him now.  Michael Jordan just kicked in 10k, but it's mostly been small donations.

Good reason for a bump….and since I saw this earlier today, here you go:

At ESPN Bet, you can currently bet Minnesota to win the Big Ten at +30000Meaning if you place a $100 wager on the Gophers to win the conference, you will lose $100.

RTB guy likes Mack and seemed like a protege of his about a year ago. Here they are now, Heels visiting M/SP for a tv game to open the season. Mack will be lucky to leave the Twin Cities with a win. Minny to cover, if not out win!

Hook’em!!!
