per Sid:
Fleck, year two
The biggest move of Coyle’s tenure so far was the firing of football coach Tracy Claeys and the hiring of P.J. Fleck. Coyle said that ticket sales are going well for the 2018-2019 season.
“I think people are excited for Year 2 with coach Fleck. He went out and did a phenomenal job with his recruiting class, I believe our recruiting class is ranked first in the Big Ten West, in the Top 30-35 in the country, places we haven’t been for a long time,” Coyle said. “You have to get talented players and you have to coach them and we’re very confident P.J. is doing those two things.”
Coyle said he thinks the biggest thing for Fleck and the university is creating a stable coaching environment with the players, and so far he says that is happening.
“P.J., he came in here and we had had three head coaches in three years, and P.J. came in here, and I give a lot of credit to our football student-athletes, they responded to coach Fleck, they bought in,” Coyle said. “We’ve had our highest academic semesters with coach Fleck here, and I know they’re working awfully hard off the field and working hard on the field. We have no reason to believe we can’t have great success if we continue to build this thing the right way.”
