The unofficial online home for fans of the Western Michigan University Broncos. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

Quote:Fleck and Beauregard admit there were schools inquiring about his availability last year, but Fleck decided to quickly brush them away.

“We have not done what we were truly going to do here,” Fleck said. “People who have an understanding of my personal life understand why I really, really love it here. The university has made a commitment to football and I’ve always dreamed of having a place I can truly build something and build it the right way, not a quick fix.”

Beauregard maintains Western Michigan will do everything it can to keep Fleck.

“It’s not going to be easy for him because we’re going to make it harder and harder for him to leave,” she said. “(But) ultimately all of that attention is tremendous and great, but it’s important he keeps his focus on where we are and every game with those student-athletes.”
