per SI:

Minnesota: P.J. Fleck. Grade: B-plus

If Tom Herman was the hottest name on the coaching carousel, Fleck was second. But it wasn’t until Minnesota’s job opened up late that the Western Michigan coach, the only one in the Group of Five to lead his team to an undefeated regular season in 2016, got his shot in the Power 5. Fleck oozes enthusiasm (about football, rowing the boat, life and cotton, among other things), and he’ll be able to connect with kids on the recruiting trail.

Go Gophers!!
 

B+ is a plenty good grade, but it isn't elite. I don't think the writer realizes the level of eliteness PJ brings to the table.
