ESPNU and Big Ten Network plan to air a four-part series in August called "BEING P.J. Fleck," with a behind-the-scenes look at the new Gophers football coach.
Last year, ESPNU ran a four-part series called "BEING Bret Bielema," highlighting the Arkansas coach. The first Fleck episode runs Aug. 2 at 8 p.m. on ESPNU, and will be rebroadcast on Big Ten Network. ESPNU will air the next three episodes Aug. 9, Aug. 16 and Aug. 23.
In ESPN's press release on Fleck, the series' co-executive producer, Bo Mattingly, said, "To no surprise, P.J. is all heart, all the time … no matter what he is doing, no matter what time of day. Throughout the filming, which continues for a few more weeks, we capture his personality, passion and drive with his family, team and others he interacts with in various situations."
