per the Pioneer Press:

Football coach P.J. Fleck on winning five games last season: “I know, I know, everybody’s all mad, and so was I, to be honest with you. At the end of the year I was (ticked), I was really upset. But then (men’s) basketball season rolled around, and I didn’t feel so bad anymore.”

Men’s basketball coach Richard Pitino on P.J. Fleck: “Terrific speaker. … He’s got a lot of buzzwords that you like to hear. Row The Boat is awesome, I love it. Nekton Mentality is terrific, I love that one. It’s one of my favorites. But I heard one recently that I really like — Year Zero. Year Zero means that last year did not happen, so it’s perfect for me. Thank you, P.J., Mark (Coyle), just remember last year did not happen for either one of us.”

After breaking his leg this winter, athletic director Mark Coyle noted he received an oar, signed by the football team, from Fleck, a note from volleyball coach Hugh McCutcheon and emails from wrestling coach Brandon Eggum and men’s gymnastics coach Mike Burns, among others.

His first phone call was from Pitino.

“(Pitino) says, ‘You did this to get the media off of you and back onto me.’ ”

The best line was from Motzko about how he went from the talk of the town to nobody when Lindsey was hired. They have a video on KSTP.
