Fleck's University of Minnesota highlights include winning Big Ten Coach of the Year in 2019 and having 12 players selected in the NFL Draft. Fleck's Gophers have won eight or more games in three consecutive full seasons (the 2020 season was shortened due to the pandemic) for the first time since 1903-1905.
Things haven't been going the Gophers' way in Big Ten basketball this season and now there are rumors head coach Richard Pitino may not be back next year.
