Big Ten Media Days kicked off this morning at the Hilton Chicago, and Minnesota Golden Gophers P.J. Fleck took the stage with a brief prepared statement before covering a range of questions from the assembled media (myself included).
Last season was truly a “Race to MAHturity”
The Gophers were 4-5 last season after their 55-31 shellacking at the hands of the Fighting Illini, which ultimately led to defensive coordinator Robb Smith being relieved of his duties. Minnesota was able to quickly turn a corner though, going 3-1 over their final four games of the season, including a Quick Lane Bowl victory over Georgia Tech.
