He left NDSU specifically because he felt he couldn't get a power 5 job without taking another job at the G5 level. This is his 3rd year at Wyoming and he's got cache again.

He would recruit the hell out of Minnesota.

No where for recruiting to go but up. Incoming class is rated dead last in the Big 10.

Downside is Minnesota is only 5.5M and not a hotbed of gridiron talent. Plus is no other Div I schools in state for football but sitting next to Badgerland for P5 and Bisonworld for the next level recruits.

wow!!! That place is becoming toxic fast. If a respected guy like Kill says that, it might make a coach think twice before taking that job. Ouch.
Well, Jerry Kill should blame the players and their boycott before he blames the admin. Claeys' players' behavior got him fired.

He created bisonworld that's my point. If he can win with Fargo 1 star kids, he can work wonders with 2 star Mankato kids

No kidding, sex tape of the basketball team, drug abuse in the wrestling program, and rape on the football team. I'd be embarrassed to be a gopher grad.

I've thought about this. I would be really disappointed if I was a Gopher alum, but I would still appreciate my school just not the athletic dept. I feel sorry for the alums but not the ad or the athletes who are being morons.

It's a done deal. Fleck cashes in big time with row the boat. Six years, $21 million.

I love it. Watching Hawk fans freak out social media about how dumb PJ is, is absolutely making my day. They ***** and moan about how outdated Kirk is, then laugh at the new kid who is slaying ***** with every rich boosters hot wife. Hope the Gophers destroy the Hawks in the years to come.

To be fair, PJ is a giant douche. He looks like the guy who thinks he can take your wife home while you're at the bar.
