Finally, P.J. Fleck’s debut as head coach at Minnesota has arrived.
The 36-year-old, who engineered unprecedented success at Western Michigan, will test his mettle in the Big Ten with the Gophers on Thursday night.
Behind an inexperienced job share at quarterback between Demry Croft and Conor Rhoda, the Gophers will open the 2017 season at home against Buffalo. The Bulls are one of Fleck’s former foes from the Mid-American Conference.
