per Fox Sports:

Minnesota
Hired Western Michigan coach P.J. Fleck.

Who would have predicted two months ago that Minnesota of all schools would land this year’s hot mid-major coach. The 36-year-old Fleck — who literally trademarked “Row the Boat” — is unconventional to say the least. It will be interesting to see how his act plays in a power conference. But his work in Kalamazoo was remarkable. If nothing else, he’ll lend the Gophers a healthy dose of personality.

Grade: A

Go Gophers!!
 

While an A seems great, they seem to be in love with most every new hire. 21 hires, only 3 received grades lower than a B-.
 











Purdue with the A+

And to what extent to expectations enter into these rankings? If Urban Meyer had quit, would Ohio State get an A+ if they hired the same guy as Purdue?

Speaking of expectations, love the hire, but gotta give it a D+.

After reading the board since the hire, need to set those expectations as low as possible.
