Green was highly recruited when he transferred from East Ridge High School to Allen, Texas, for his senior season. He gave an oral commitment to Oregon before switching to the Gophers.
At the U, he said he had reservations for a year after the head-coaching switch from Tracy Claeys to P.J. Fleck. He arrived in Dinkytown as a quarterback before moving to tight end during spring practice and eventually to receiver this fall.
The redshirt sophomore’s touchdown on Thursday, however, came in the Wildcat formation, where he and quarterback Zack Annexstad switched spots. Green took the snap, followed his blocks and zeroed in on the goal line, where he bowled over former Gophers cornerback Ray Buford to score.
Green backed it up with a 3-yard touchdown run later in the second quarter. His new role in the Minnesota offense will be something Fresno State (1-0) must prepare to see again from the Gophers (1-0) in their game at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at TCF Bank Stadium.
“Seeing all that hard work pay off was definitely joyful,” Green said Wednesday of his TDs. “It helped give me promise that if I keep working and keep on the grind, all that will come together for good, if you keep doing the right things.”..
