Ahh July. The time of the year where everyone is go geared up for football that small comments can start epic firestorms. Gopher Head Coach PJ Fleck may have done just that Sunday morning when he made his usual appearance on the Sports Huddle with Dave Mona and Sid Hartman on WCCO Radio. The pertinent audio begins at about the 21:15 mark of hour two of the show. As Joe Christensen of the Star Tribune describes, this would be the key quote that came from Fleck’s mouth:
I’ll be honest with you, one of the main things I’ve listened to from numerous people, whether it’s fans, whether it’s administration, whether it’s players, is moving our sideline to the other side, and that’s what I’d like to do.
