PJ Fleck, one day on the job as Minnesota’s new head coach, flipped six players who had been committed to Western Michigan.
Probably just a coincidence.

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
So Fleck was recruiting Big 10 level talent to Western Michigan? Interesting.

Clearly he was, as Western beat Northwestern and Illinois on the road this past season. Beat the crap out of Illinois, too.

Gary was a fine RB. Loved the way he twisted, pushed, plowed, etc. whenever he got hear the goal line. I think he had a thousand yard season for Denver.

Seems like the BIG 10 continues to out recruit the SEC when it comes to coaching talent.

How’d the coaching talent shake out come bowl season? Big 10 coaching is better than it was, but those schools and that area still has a demographic and population relocation problem.

Remember coaches, you are not committed to any school for any amount of time.
