Quote from PJ in today's Sid column caught my eye.
“What we haven’t done for 51 years, that has to stop affecting our future,” Fleck said. “Just because it is our past doesn’t mean it has to be our future.”
I happen to agree with it. That attitude showed early when PJ stepped right up and started recruiting players we formerly did not even attempt to realistically sign. The attitude PJ brought was "why not?" Now, that level of player has become the new normal and expectations are that success will breed even more success. Going into this year, I am excited to see the future of Gopher football being formed. No rose colored glasses, as we are sure to take some lumps, but I am going to enjoy looking forward.
