Pete Thamel of Sports Illustrated is reporting that Ohio State offensive coordinator Ed Warinner will be hired by P.J. Fleck as Minnesota’s offensive line coach.
This follows reports yesterday that Warinner would be hired as Minnesota’s offensive coordinator and then reports this morning that the OC hire wasn’t happening. In other words, take it all with a grain of salt.
HOWEVER...
If true this represents a coup by Coach Fleck. While there were reasonable questions about Ed Warinner’s performance as an offensive coordinator, his work as an offensive line coach at Ohio State is generally regarded as excellent.
