Fleck said that this fall’s training camp will bear little to no resemblance to the up-tempo fall practices from his previous years at Minnesota. He stressed that their top priority is the health and safety of their student-athletes, and that all workouts and practices have been structured to abide by state and federal public health guidelines, in addition to the standards and policies put forth by the University of Minnesota, the Big Ten, and the NCAA.
