P.J. Fleck is rowing his boat to the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
The Western Michigan head coach -- who previously served as Rutgers' wide receivers coach late in Greg Schiano's tenure -- is the new head coach at Minnesota.
"It's an honor to coach at Minnesota and be part of the Big Ten conference,'' Fleck said in a statement. "I want to thank president Eric Kaler, athletic director Mark Coyle and the Board of Regents for this opportunity. I also want to thank Western Michigan, my players and the great fans and city of Kalamazoo for a wonderful four years.
