It has been well-documented that Tuesday is the day where University of Minnesota’s Athletic Director, Mark Coyle is planning to meet with his head football coach, Tracy Claeys. The meeting it to determine the future of Claeys and his staff at the University of Minnesota.
Following the Gopher’s regular season loss at Wisconsin, Coyle released a statement giving Claeys his full support.
He is our head football coach. As is the case with every one of our head coaches, he has my full support.
Most assumed that this meant Claeys had earned himself an extension with his 8-4 record in his first season as the permanent head coach.
