Mad props to PJ for showing respect in losing. This is how you maintain dignity in a loss. Didn’t hear any excuses from him about the weather, having fevers, or his team playing one bad half 😂

Respect from Michigan to pj fleck keep rowin.

I have never heard a coach so honest. But I guess he might as well

Michigan is the best team in the country this year. They have depth unmatched across the OL and DL and they have so many weapons on offense. They are not flashy but why do they need to? Harbaugh will get over his playoff hump this year.

Much respect for P.J Fleck. Well respected coach in the Big 10, and he's pretty good. Good luck for the rest of the season coach, go upset OSU for us.

Well said P.J. Coming from a fan since he came from WMU. Last week Urban Meyer "had faith" in Matt Rhule and Nebraska predicting a close game. He couldn't let go of his bias. PJ has a young team, they'll be on the watch.

Michigan fan here. You guys have a hell of a coach in PJ Fleck. I thought this game would be closer, but didn't realize you had so many starters out. Wish you all the best

Michigan fan here but I really like Coach Fleck and the University of Minnesota too! He's a classy coach at a classy university. Keep the faith. I like the energy and passion Coach Fleck brings to the Big 10 Conference. I believe he has Minnesota heading in the right direction. All the best!

Michigan fan here. The Gophers have some good players and a class act or a coach. Good luck in the rest of your season.

Disappointing loss but Coach Fleck has always been honest about losses. Class coach with a class team.

wow great coach gave credit and took responcebility class act

Well said PJ! That was a tough one but your guys never quit. Props... BTW your running back Evans is a stud!

I appreciate that PJ as a Michigan fan much respect to you.

Life long Michigan fan - I remember the PJ fleck WMU row the boat craze dude is legit. Excited to see what else he will accomplish within his football career. A smart coach and a stand up guy. Minnesota might not be good this year but if Pj sticks around there team will continue to get better and better.

Classy coach, wish him the best. Go Blue!

The coach isn’t the reason they lost 52-10, the recruiting is

Mr. Fleck. You have a good team. Don't let this discourage you. Michigan is just different these past 3 years

I am a Michigan fan…I was impressed by Minnesota’s RB. That dude can ball…not easy running on our D line and he did

PJ u a badass bro dont change good luck with the rest of the season my guy🤜

It's refreshing to hear a coach give credit to the other team instead of making excuses much respect to PJ a class act.

Fleck was right. Michigan was the best team in the country, by far.

I'm a huge Michigan fan from Ann Arbor but my second favorite college football team now are the Minnesota Gophers. PJ Fleck is one hell of a good coach. Incredibly smart, and a Class Act. And your players fought to the very end. I look forward to their successes the second half of this season and many seasons to come under his Reign. Go Gophers

Class act. No excuses just honest analysis and gives credit where it's due.

Minnesota fans should be proud to have P.J

I blame PJ for sticking with Ciarrocca. He was fired at Penn St because he was simply a bad OC. Yes, he had 1 good season w/ Tanner in 2019 but that’s it. Get a decent OC who can develop a QB or it’s rinse and repeat.

He should go to the vikings as an assistant coach

PJ realized he played a national champion in Michigan. Props to PJ.

Can't beat them praise them

Dang PJ about to make me cry bud nah but for real you can tell this guy really loves his team and it's hurt for his team the eyes Never Lie they are the window to the soul mad love and respect for PJ Fleck and his Minnesota Gophers go Blue

As a Michigan Fan, not sure why people give coach fleck a hard time. I think hes a great coach. I mean, its hard to win at Minnesota . And has won a lot of games. If Harbaugh ever left, i would love Michigan to reach out to him.

Pj is a good coach at a tougher school to recruit at.

Fleck was the hot name in coaching when he took WMU to 13-0 and the Cotton Bowl. I’m not sure why he went to Minnesota, but he’s kind of in football hell now - at best they win 7 or 8 games a year and go to some rinky-dink bowl game. They haven’t been close to anything as good as that 2016 Cotton Bowl. I don’t know if he’ll get an option to move to a school where he can actually contend for anything. I wish him the best for sure he’s a good coach.

🤣😅😂😂🤣 I'm sure a lot of tears were shed.

If P.J. wants to come to Double A. After Jimmy is gone, He is more than welcome to be our coach. He is an excellent coach and one heck of a motivator. Your more than welcome coach!

Tons of respect for this coach. Great guy!

For the most part Coach Fleck was honest. But now it's time for me to be honest. Yes the Gophers have lost some guys to the portal (but not all of them were playing). Yes the Gophers have played some good teams. Yes they have three starters injured. But the truth is after the 2019 season Tanner Morgan's play digressed & kept digressing. Athan's play is not improving & has digressed from last year. In the 2021, 20022 & now the 2023 season, the Gophers mental focus, execution & game planning has been repeatedly inconsistent... especially on offense & special teams. The Gopher passing game simply does not attack defenses in a way that makes it hard for them to defend. Then there are the inexcusable losses from 2021-2023 to teams that they should not have lost to. The bottom line... the Gophers coaching staff is average at best... & in last nights game verse Michigan all of this was very evident. It's one one thing to lose & it's another to not even be competitive. The Gophers have not recruited that poorly. So please Coach Fleck, don't tell us you are a still a good football team... because the coaching is not good... it's average.

Still mad you pulled off the td, thats a great call, still piss me off tho

PJ fleck is a class act

Brown Jug stays home. Thanks Coach

You fired 🎉🎉🎉😂😂

PJ is a sapp of a coach.But it is his dream job.

Respect to him for getting up there basically bowing to them amazing wolverines. Couldn't be easy to get up there and just own your mistakes. Our goal this year is make them lions and them suckeyes couches up there after we beat that ass. Go Blue

This team is good at convincing the student body, and loyal fanbase to continue showing up at games, and supporting them. But seriously, this team will never in my lifetime achieve greatness for whatever reason. Definitely pretenders, and not close to being contenders. Expect to see better from this team, instead of the beat down they got yesterday.

MAD RESPECT 〽️〽️〽️🏈🏈🏈💯🎯 Let's Go Blue 💙

Way to hand Michigan the game, like I said same o same o!!

As a Michigan fan no other big ten coaches wanna give Michigan credit

minny should be proud of how well their coach and players represent themselves. however, the QB did get fooled on that first pick-6. he thought he saw cover-3 (which is their base defense) but they deliberately showed a cover-3 look but went to cover-2 which gave the michigan DB the option to break on that outside route that rutgers was successful with the week before.

maybe Tracy Claeys can rebuild the program!

The most horrific game I’ve ever watched

class act. when ur out gunned nothign u can do about it..

Time to switch to the Missouri Valley Conference.

Brian Kelly should take notes from this guy

Go to the tranfer portal and get an experienced athletic quarterback

We still got a shot at a bowl game in detoilet PJ ......yikes the gophers are a bad football team

QB play has been atrocious! You have to at least muster up a passing game to at least compete the rest of the season. If we can’t get a decent passing game going the second half of the season, I don’t see this team being bowl eligible this year.

Same old Minnesota Gophers always getting cream by Ohio State, Wisconsin, Michigan!😂

Any truth to the rumors that the Gophers will be changing their name to Gofers (doing the bidding of other teams) after this devastating loss?

Wasn’t fleck accused of toxic culture. And now the team sucks too?

wisconsin taking the axe and never giving it back

As a die hard Michigan fan I can say with ease that this is the best Michigan team I have seen ever. Fuck the big ten championship we taking that national championship.

QB 5/15= 5.3 QBR in football, you are only as good as your QB PJ seems sold on current kid .

If Minnesota was a boat it would be the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald that quarterback is garbage should have kept the guy from South Dakota Knuth

Bama showed you how.. trenches. Georgia followed suite, trenches... we at Michigan.... trenches. Put some NIL on those lines and they'll make any positional 3 stars look like 5s. Keep at it.

PJ will not last another year if he can't recruit good talent. Doesn't matter how !! RAH RAH!! you are.. getting beat regularly will get you removed.

Fleck cant recruit, and until he can or find someone who can, He should be on the hot seat.

He's almost as classy as Ryan Day. Jk😂😂😂

Coach better and recruit better. Simple

Fleck is a good dude but doesn’t seem to get the recruits he needs to be a successful program in the Big 10, especially next year with who’s coming in.

Door mat for the Big Ten again 🤮

So let's give Fleck a nice raise so he can afford a one-way "row boat" to somewhere very, very faraway!

Michigan won Trump lost

Minnesota Gophers = perpetual losers. The question is why? Minnesota's very best players often go to Wisconsin or Notre Dame where football is the only game in town. The Gophers play in Minneapolis where the team competes with pro teams such as the Twins, Vikings, T-Wolves, Wild, and others for media attention. Thus, in other schools, football players become the big hero in town. Not so much in Minneapolis. The state high schools produce mostly big but slow white guys who do not have the forward speed or lateral quickness of their peers in other states. Compared to states such as Texas, California, Florida, etc, Minnesota produces very few players who go on to careers in the NFL. Bottom line is that the Gophers are at a disadvantage when it comes to football talent and teams. Despite all the efforts and money put into making it a better team, Minnesota will never again become the national champion like it was in the old days.

Sparty gonna hang 100 on michigan

Michigan playing these Big Ten tomatoe cans is giving them a false sense of superiority. That's how an overmatched team like TCU can shock them. Michigan should start the season playing against some southern teams. There's a reason so many national champs have been from south of the Mason-Dixon Line the last decade or so. They don't do it with smoke and mirrors; there is a VERY deep talent pool down here. They take football veeeeery serious in Dixie!!
