I noticed that Kill doesn't mention another thing that might change a guy, like, say, losing a kid.

I like Jerry and I can’t say I really follow the behind the scenes dynamics of schools like Minnesota or WMU. PJ is all about getting everyone fired up by being a nut with insane energy and selling everyone on his row the boat strategy. Maybe Jerry Kill should get his paddle rowing in the right direction?

There’s no love loss and it reads like there’s multiple reasons for Jerry Kill’s strong opinion. Fleck was on Kill’s staff at Northern IL so he’s got some familiarity with Fleck.

To me Fleck’s hyper rah rah style has a shelf life and the clock is running in Minnesota. Fleck needs a couple of 8-9 win seasons to get his next job.

Sounds like Kill needs to focus on the here and now

Not sure about this. Sounds more like Kill gave an interview, was asked some questions and answered honestly.

Sports talk radio needs something to fill the air. Doesn’t mean kill should fall for it.

Kill shouldn't be talking about the next MSU head coach like that. Not cool bro.

Also if it’s rare that a college football coach is egotistical and thinks about “himself” a lot, well then consider me Miles Davis.

We tried a PJ Fleck type before. He won Big 10 coach of the year and then flamed right the fuck out. No thanks.

Bobby Williams? JLS? Morris Watts???? i honestly don't remember any of these guys winning COTY.

On blast? What the hell greenway.

Greenway's a millennial. Confirmed.

JLS won it. His first year, I believe.

You’re comparing John L to fleck? Huh? Is there one similarity outside of being a football coach?

by **Watch Out Pylon!** Wed Feb 20, 2019 11:16 am

Remember those bubble screens he used to run? Fun times.

Their record through two years in the big ten is very similar as well.

by **steveschneider** Wed Feb 20, 2019 11:22 am

Did Minnesota score only 1-2 touchdowns in their last four games? scratch

That’s fair but you could say that about a lot of average coaches out there. It seemed to be more of a personality comparison from roc which blew my mind.

Yeah, he does. I don’t like (or trust) Fleck, and I always had a good thought for JK, but this seems petty.

I read the story and create a headline based on what’s in there. And, my clueless ~~friend~~ acquaintance, blast is in there.

Really? Because they are both rah rah guys and that only works when you're winning.

I heard they’re planning a Welcome Back party for you on tRCMB; you should go over there.

Remember when JLS slapped himself? Good times. Man I was so emotionally invested in football back then. Thank god I (mostly) grew out of that.

Can you imagine Fleck pulling half the shit he does now when he hits his sixties? Dude is going to have to retire because he shattered both hips.

Huh. JLS didn't give me that impression of being a "rah rah" guy. More of a southern goofy guy.

I'm not saying anything, but how old were you during the JLS years?

JLS is a western US guy, so, that’s what you have to look forward to becoming. Maybe change your screen name to Slappy.

That would require doing math - no thanks. For context, i was at the Cold War hockey game. 2004 Wisconsin MSU. 2006 Notre Dame MSU. Etc etc etc. so old enough? I’ll guess like 10 years old?

Otpt it’s not that hard you just have to take your current age and subtract 14. Bam, your age in 2005.

So for example, if you are currently 25 and you want to know how old you were in 2005 then you take 25 and you take away 14.... so how old were you?

There ya go big guy. You would be 11 in 2005.

Now now don’t get confused. I’m not saying you are 25. I’m saying if you were. Wouldn’t want there to be any silly slip ups about how old you are Jerry Kill puts PJ Fleck on blast 1f600

Travis, after recent events on the swill and other boards I’ve tried to stay a bit more private. There are some fucking nut jobs around. But thank you. 10 or 11 or so depending the year
