With Jerry Kill officially taking over the Rutgers offense this month, I wanted to find out more on his track record from his days at Minnesota. The Gophers continued to win in Kill’s first full season away from the program, but there was plenty of controversy as well. It led to Kill’s former defensive coordinator and the man that replaced him as head coach, Tracy Claeys, getting fired last week. Minnesota hired former Rutgers assistant P.J. Fleck as head coach on Friday in what seems like a great move for them.
Despite the recent controversy and change within their program, there is no denying it is in relatively good shape for Fleck take over, due to the job Kill did at Minnesota in his 4+ years there.
