per GopherSports:
The 2017 football season is right around the corner, which means Big Ten Football Media Days are even closer. This year, the conference will hold its annual media days on July 24-25 at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place and Convention Center in Chicago.
Representing the Gophers will be head coach P.J. Fleck, senior defensive tackle Steven Richardson, senior linebacker Jonathan Celestin and junior running back Rodney Smith.
Fleck was named head football coach at the University of Minnesota on Jan. 6, 2017 and is the 30th head coach in the program's history. Fleck came to Minnesota after spending four years as the head coach at Western Michigan, where he was 30-22 overall and 21-11 in the Mid-American Conference. While leading the Broncos, Fleck authored one of the most memorable turnarounds in college football history. The Broncos were 1-11 in his first year in 2013, but ended last season with a No. 12 ranking, a 13-1 record, a conference championship and a berth in the Cotton Bowl.
Fleck, 36, is one the youngest and brightest minds in the game. He was named MAC Coach of the Year in 2014 and 2016 and last season he led the Broncos to their first MAC Championship since 1988.
