Battle of two up and coming coaches.

Fleck's offense looks pretty similar to what ISU tries to run, only with a better pass attack.
I'm just not overly impressed by Toledo

I didn't want Toledo coach after our game, nothing has changed my mind on him during this game. Didn't really know a lot about Fleck but like him after watching this. Basically said at halftime, "we know why they are getting those yards, that's what making adjustments at halftime is for." Well, that's refreshing.

Also saw a stat that he's 12-3 leading at halftime. Another refreshing stat.

He seems to have the respect of his players too.

I could get behind this hire.

Should Fleck end up in Ames, let's hope the unis are better than what WMU is wearing today. Hideous. Of course, they do have the disadvantage of brown.

Fleck and the way he mimics Jim Tressel. LOL. Just missing the sweater vest!

Are you allowed to do that?

I read somewhere that W. Michigan has "Row the Boat" copyrighted, so he will have to come up with a new slogan if he leaves.

I'm all aboard the Fleck hire. Can you really do anything with brown and yellow? Even WMu has alternates. Also looked very balanced offensively and shows no fear on going for 2 on first drive

On the biggest stage in school history, the stadium shook with an energy befitting a transformative moment. Chants of "Row! The! Boat!" echoed through the venue, a nod to Fleck's favorite phrase. (He and the school have "Row The Boat" copyrighted.)
