Dabo is overrated? The guy who’s playing for the national championship for the fourth time in the last five Seasons? Fleck is overrated? The guy who just won 11 games at Minnesota? You know the last time time Minny won at least 11 games in a single season, 1904. But he’s “overrated,” Jesus Christ.
Want to tell me Jimbo is overrated? I'll buy it. Think orgeron is a one year wonder that fell into perfect situation? I'll listen. But man, saying Dabo or fleck can't coach? Whew.
Of those 11 wins how many of them came against an FBS opponent with a winning record at the end of the season?
Ok. So they had great season and won more games than any other Minnesota squad has the past 115 years.
Clearly a much easier schedule than the last 100 teams they’ve fielded. The 72 squad would have went 13-0
To be fair, they probably had a fairly similar non-murder’s row most of the previous 115 seasons in which they didn’t win 11
I’m sure their fans really give a damn about their soft schedule. And I’m sure there have been plenty of times in the past that they had shitty schedules, yet they didn’t manage to win 11 games.
No, that’s not what I’m saying. Great coaches are great coaches, with or without great coordinators. He’s Tommy Bowden with a better staff and recruits. Nothing more.
