Minnesota Football: The week you’ve all been waiting for...The Monday Perspective is BACK!

PJ Fleck is entering his 6th season at the Gopher head football coach. The season kicks off this week on Thursday against the man who had previously run the Gopher football program.

With 5 seasons under his belt, Fleck has coached the exact same number of games as Jerry Kill who abruptly retired after 4 12 seasons leading the program. Each with basically 4 12 seasons under their belt. Which makes a program comparison interesting, doubly so when you factor in that they face each other at Huntington Bank Stadium to open the 2022 season.
