Ed Warinner is his O-Line coach. Will certainly be interesting to see if he's a legit player in two/three years.

What happened to my ¤cash?
If the kid has any skills at all, Ed will do a fine job with him. It’d be an insult to Stud to say that I miss Ed, but he was a damn fine OL coach. Frankly, he’s almost as good at coaching the OL as LJ is as handling the DL. There’s few higher praises than being compared to LJ in terms of developing talent and I was being sincere.

Nine current and former football players are suing Minnesota for $45 million in federal discrimination lawsuit
The fallout from an ugly incident in 2016 involving the football team continues to affect the University of Minnesota and the latest battle ground now appears to be a federal court.
ESPN has obtained a new lawsuit filed against the school on Friday, which alleges “racial and gender discrimination; intentional, willful, and malicious misconduct; and deliberate indifference” from the university that caused damage to nine current and former Gophers football players. 10 players were initially involved in the original sexual assault incidentthat led to various suspensions and expulsions from the program but the report does not say which of the group is not participating in the lawsuit. It does however point out that three current members of the 2018 team are involved with the lawsuit: Antoine Winfield Jr., Seth Green and Antonio Shenault.
“We are aware of the lawsuit served on behalf of several current and former students,” the school said in a statement released to ESPN. “The University thoughtfully and thoroughly responds when faced with disturbing allegations, and provides extensive process to students accused of misconduct, including the opportunity to be heard during thorough investigations, panel hearings, and Provost review. Further, aggrieved students have a right to review by the Minnesota Court of Appeals. We will vigorously defend the University.”
The lawyers for the group are seeking $45 million in damages, or about $5 million per player.
While there are a lot of details involved in the story, most will remember the initial fallout from 10 players getting suspended when the Gophers entire football team held a short boycott of activities shortly before they played in the Holiday Bowl. The team eventually relented from the boycott and went on to beat Washington State in the game but the damage was already done to many involved and then-head coach Tracy Claeys was eventually fired after supporting his players in the matter (he somewhat ironically was later hired by the Cougars as their new defensive coordinator).

Looks like Jerry Kill isn’t a fan of boats and oars and rowing.

It's amusing ...but hard to argue shameless self promotion hasnt become part of the jon description.
Seems like a generational gap in coaching approach to career development; for better and worse. But this is what NFL and CFB have both chosen to reward ... people are going to respond.

Kill sounds like sour grapes to me. Fleck said nothing but kind things about Jerry when he took over the program. And, let's face it, they did need a cultural change with all the Title IX violations.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
And it's all Greg Schiano's fault too:
Kill seemed to lay a lot of the blame for Fleck’s shifting personality at the feet of Greg Schiano, who had Fleck on his Rutgers staff from 2010-11 and also brought him to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers the following season, as well as a divorce from his first wife.
He coached with me, but after that, he changed a lot. I’ll just be honest with you guys. People that have known him before — When he got with Schiano, his personality changed a lot. And I knew his first wife, and he just changed a bunch. And then once he became a head coach, I mean, I helped him get the job at Western Michigan, and I just think sometimes, ego gets carried away.
And when he went into Minnesota and treated the people the way he treated my guys and telling ‘em he had to go in and completely change the culture, and it was a bad culture and bad people, you know, he made it sound like we didn’t know what we were doing, and I took it personal. You just don’t treat people that have been with you and helped you career and you don’t even talk to him, you know, once you get the job.

Wrong glass, Sir.
Jerry Kill has always seemed like a stand up guy. Fleck, not so much.
