This isn't new and has probably been covered on this board already. I didn't think it could get any worse than Beckman's "OSKEE" acronym, but here we are with Fleck's "HYPRR". The "H" should stand for hallucination. This guy is insane.
started watching...couldn't make it through the hole thing

something tells me Fleck will go down in some scandal involving girls and/or money. The guy is just too weird.

Minnesota goes from Jerry Kill, who you had to respect , basically straight to PJ Fleck - talk about polar opposites. Geez.

Alex Halsted (Iowa St guy) just changed his cloudy CB over to UI for Massey.

I believe he’s committing to either us or Miznoz tomorrow right?

Yes, I am not a big crystal ball follower, but it is interesting that there are no CBs for Miznoz and the only pick for Iowa State is from December of 2017. All of the other CBs, including many from this past week, appear to be for us. :noidea:

Here is Massey’s letter from Miznoz, it says the same thing in the last paragraph. (Subject to position availability)

Minnesota's coaching hires have been suspect for some time. Bill Musselman and his thugs Taylor and Behagen. Jim Dutcher and the alleged rapes by his players. Clem Haskins and the academic fraud scandal. J Robinson and drug dealing wrestlers. Tracy Claeys and sexual assault vs. football players.

Every time I hear football coaches use acronyms now, I have flashbacks to Beckman fumbling over OSKEE or WIN(t).

It's too bad, because Minnesota is a fine university.

I believe this is the reason that Illinois has hired coaches like Tepper, Turner, Lovie, Kruger, and Bruce Weber over the years.

We also hired Beckman, Self and Mike White (plus Lou Henson and Brad Underwood if I feel like starting an argument ;))

And Glen Mason, Jerry Kill and Tubby Smith are some of the most well-respected upstanding people in the profession.

It's all shades of gray everywhere.

This is cringeworthy to the nth degree - "The "H" is for "How, which is People" Why not just make the first letter "P" then? "Y is Your Vision" ok, then shouldn't the second letter really be "V" for Vision? First off its all crap, second, its lazy in that he's immediately translating the acronym to different words right at the start. How, How, I ask you - do recruits and their parents buy this load of crap? Beckman's OSKEE was bad, but this is so much worse.

Beckman was a goofball, inarticulate idiot. Fleck is a greasy, car salesman idiot. It's all about how the crap is wrapped up--at the end of the day its the same expletive.

It's like a parody of a football coach, played by Rod Coddry.
