I would like to thank every coach that reached out to me while I was in the transfer portal. With that being said, I’m excited to tell everyone I will be playing my final year and earning my masters degree at THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA!

In my 5 years of CFB I have never played for or against a coach & staff that care more about their players than
@Coach_Fleck
. Row The Boat Culture made me a better man and is something I will value the rest of my life. The accusations “reported” on by
@WCCO
are absolutely false.

FAKE NEWS ‼️
If these claims are all true why are these “former players” not sharing their name??
The article fails to also mention Coyle (AD) and U President Gable were in the facilities 24/7. Acting like they wouldn’t have known?!
This is a gossip piece trying to mimic NW
EXCLUSIVE: Former University of Minnesota football players describe a toxic culture under head coach P.J. Fleck in interviews with
@FOS
— including allegations of strenuous workouts were used as punishments in violation of NCAA guidelines.

Minnesota football couldn’t have won 9 games in the last 3 seasons without Tanner Morgan.
Coach Fleck couldn’t have built the culture at Minnesota as quickly as he did without Tanner Morgan.
Mo wouldn’t be the all time rushing leader in Minnesota history without Tanner Morgan.

No burner here your a clown 🤡
Guys who have bad experiences playing at Minnesota are in large just bad guys. Bad grades, bad attitudes, bad at following rules, or bad teammates.
Show me 1 person speaking out and I’ll tell you which “bad” category they fit in.

Val, tread carefully brother. I don’t want to bury you on Twitter in-front of all your boys. I came from a D1 school. Food and gear is free everywhere. While we are discussing players sucking why did you only have 4 more tackles than me?

@Iam_VMLV
Val, I wasn’t drafted for many reasons.. mainly bc I wasn’t good.
You can tell me I’m not good at football but you can’t tell me I didn’t try to be a good teammate. You on the other didn’t get drafted and appear to be a dog shit teammate.

Get me and

We barely played, lost the Wisconsin game ourselves, and we’re bottom of depth chart.
But we can speak to the impact Coach Fleck had on us and how he treated those around us.
After seeing this tweet from former Gopher Val Martin and reading this thread ( ) I invited him to come on the
@gopherhole
podcast, and he agreed to be on at 3pm.
As a person who likes to get the full story before forming an opinion, I wanted to hear (1/2)

He is quite literally the All-Time winningest QB in Minnesota History. Like he’s won more games than any Quarterback that has ever worn the Block M.

I’ll be honest I gotta agree here.
The rest of the B1G West is playing power houses like GA Southern, Wyoming, South Dakota, SIU, Indiana State, and Illinois State.
Ur a clown Sam 🤡
There’s exactly one Big Ten West team still undefeated. Minnesota. Which wisely plays multiple joke schools to start its non-conference season.

P.J. Fleck has has led

football to one of its best 5-year stretches in program history.
But he has now shown that he could be out-coached by ANYONE on any given day.
Very interesting position for Mark Coyle and the UMN athletic department to be in.

Absolutely heart broken that I won’t be playing against Wisconsin in Camp Randall today. This game meant a lot to my dad and I. However, no game is worth anyone’s health and the B1G made the necessary decision. I’ll visit the Axe in Minnesota soon tho 😉

If there is a better man or teammate out there I want to meet them.
Tanner makes football feel second to helping others.
No one dedicates themselves to serving and giving like Tanner Morgan.
That's why he's been named a finalist for the Wuerffel Trophy.

No real need for Benjamin St-Juste to wrap his arm around Adams here, I'm guessing he hadn't fully located the ball, but if he had, he'd have seen he had a clear path to it.
