Yea that's probably not great for Will

[passranch]

Maybe this UCLA opening will be the ticket out for Lance?

[john "teach me how to" dougie]

I don`t think Will is going to be the starter, just sayin`.

[meow meow]

what if Lance goes to UCLA and KU finally gets Harbaugh 

[ben ji]

Chip hates recruiting/schmoozing with donors and had basically quit doing it at UCLA , lost alot of his team this year and was staring down the barrel of a 3-4 win season in the big10. UCLA is broke and couldn't fire him so he was a dead man walking this year.

It will definitely be interesting to see how this impacts Will.

I don't understand why he didn't just stay and get the money. He can always get a coordinator gig. Also I can't imagine being offensive coordinator at Ohio State and not having to recruit or schmooze

If Fleck leaves Minnesota, we could easily loose CK.

If I was Day, I'd give Chip that job and let him do what he wanted.

If he didn't leave for Nebraska he sure as hell isn't leaving for Minn

[john "teach me how to" dougie]

Why do teams covet Fleck? Is it because he won 5 games last year in the weakest division in P5 and still made a bowl game?

[wetwillie]

He's got rizz

[john "teach me how to" dougie]

Tie and sweater vest?

Fargo is 3 hours from Minneapolis.  It's the same culture and recruiting area that won him national championships.  Zero expectations like Nebraska.  Better stadium than Nebraska.  big 10 money.  He'd be crazy not to take the MN job.

[star seed 7]

yeah, minnesota is a much better situation than nebraska

[wetwillie]

I should have known better than to eff with Pete on something related to Minnesota.  I yield sir.

Bullet dodged for now

[MakeItRain]

I think Minnesota is a better job than UCLA. Lower expectations, same ceiling.

This is wild

[sonofdaxjones]

Why anyone would want to deal with playing home games 45 minutes off campus in Los Angeles is beyond me.

UCLA football doesn’t have full sized practice fields and the only way to get 100 yards is to go across the two 80 yard East-West fields but then there’s not enough room for full endzones on both ends.

Damn, I leave town for a couple of days and come back to people elevating Minnesota into something it isn't. We should be comparing Minnesota to Iowa State and Kansas instead people are claiming it's a better job than UCLA and Nebraska?

Minnesota has never won the Big 10 West, the worst division in football. Minnesota hasn't won the Big 10 since 1967.

Minnesota has had a recruiting class finish ahead of Nebraska exactly twice, 2003 and 2008. I believe those were both coaching change seasons for Nebraska.

Only Northwestern*, Maryland, Rutgers, and Purdue have smaller football budgets in the Big 10.

Yes, Minnesota has a newer stadium but no one goes to games there. They've averaged 44,000 fans a game the last 5 non covid years.

The Minnesota job would have been great for Klieman when he was at NDSU, now that he has a P4 job and has it humming, he has nothing to gain by going to Minnesota. By the time Klieman retires he'll have more conference championships than Minnesota has had since 1941.

UCLA absolutely has problems, but a lot of them can be overcome by the right coach, they have natural recruiting advantages that most of the P4 does not. They have a national championship ceiling with a good coaching staff and a committed administration.

Pete buys a pontoon boat and starts thinking Minnesota is the French Riviera

[Rage Against the McKee]

Minnesota and UCLA are both capable of finishing 4th or 5th in the Big 10 in a good year.

[MakeItRain]

I like Scheer a lot, but I'm calling cap here. This is the twitterization of the media because there's no way he goes with this if it had to be published and not tweeted. His sources are all Arizona based.

Yep.

Power 2 jobs.

[Pete]

There is no such thing as a P4 job any more.  There is Power 2 and Second 2.  Some guys will be OK with settling for Second 2 jobs. Do we want one that is?
