P.J. Fleck is leaving the cupboard bare at Western Michigan.

The new Minnesota head coach flipped three more commitments Sunday from the Broncos to the Gophers, according to Joe Christensen of the Star Tribune. Fleck had already secured six original Western Michigan commits after he left.

Pass rusher Nate Umlor, offensive tackle Kyle Sassack, and defensive tackle Tyrone Chambers have all now made the jump with Fleck to Minnesota.

Umlor and Chambers are three-star recruits, while Sassack is a two-star, based on ESPN's grading system.

While the three may not be top-level prospects, it's at least comforting for Fleck to be bringing several familiar players to a new head coaching gig.
