per Megan:
Most of the Gophers’ introduction to the hit musical “Hamilton” came early on in P.J. Fleck’s tenure as coach, when he themed a week after his favorite Broadway show.
The retitled “HOWmilton” taught the players how to not throw away their shots and what their legacies could be. And Wednesday night was a good reminder of that for defensive lineman Carter Coughlin, receiver Tyler Johnson, running back Mohamed Ibrahim and holder Casey O’Brien, when Fleck took them to the show in Chicago ahead of Big Ten Media Days.
“What are we going to do with our shot? You’re not going to throw away your shot. What are you going to do with your legacy? Who’s going to tell your story when you’re gone?” Fleck said of the musical’s messages. “… You can come from nothing and be something and somebody. And you’re not perfect. You’re never going to be perfect. You’re going to make mistakes, but it’s how you overcome all that.”
