Appears to be a fairly big recruiting weekend for the Gophers. Biggest names with offers that are uncommitted are Edina's Quinn Carroll and Lakeville North's Bryce Benhart. 2018 Commits attending are Benjamin Sapp, Brevyn Spann-Ford, Logan Richter, Nathan Boe and Josh Aune. Seniors invited...

Just saw a note that Alex Mayes was finished playing football due to injuries. Not sure if already reported or not, but with Bush, Campion, Bjorklund, Christensen, Bobek, Lauer, and Hayes hanging up their cleats, the OL for next season is definitely a concern! Pirsig and Moore will be...

With the Class of 2013 recruiting class in the record books and Class of 2014 off and running with junior days and spring practice events, I thought I would post a first look at the Class of 2015. There is definitely some BCS talent in the this group with CDH Jashon Cornell (6'4 225) leading...

With less than six weeks to NSD, I thought I would post an update on the status of the Class of 2013 and offers as of today. The class certainly isn't as good as Class of 2012 and down at this point regarding BCS offers. Including JUCOs, the class has 37 D1 offers at this point. BCS/FBS...

Similar to top offensive players, there are a number of solid juniors that are picking up D1 interest in the state. Will be updating class rosters with end of season stats and players receiving all-state, all-metro/city/area, and all-conference lists. Defensive Lineman Andrew Stelter, 6’4...

Thought I would do an update on the Class of 2014 before focusing on the Class of 2013 race to signing day. On that note DE/FB Birk Olson (6'3 235) from Monticello pickedup an offer from Air Force. For the Class of 2014, no new offers reported since Frank Ragnow (6'6 285) from Chanhassen...

The following is a mid-season review of top senior offensive players from a recruiting aspect. As evidence by lack of Minnesota offers, it is a down year for the state of Minnesota. It is probably safe to say that most of the players identified are preferred walk-on candidates. I am a Osseo...

With the Gopher Junior Elite Camp scheduled for Sunday the 22nd, I thought I would share an update on top rising juniors. Many of which are going to be attending the camp, which will allow the coaching staff a first hand look at the players for the Class of 2014. There are definitely some solid...

With the recent offer to Rochester JM OL Jackson Wilson (6'3 275), I thought I post on the latest offers for the Class of 2013. The Class is certainly down from last year's class, but probably not far off from an average Minnesota class at this point. I know Gophers have interest in a number of...

Eden Prairie LB Jack Cottrell picked up an offer from Boston College. Malik Rucker picked up another FBS offer from Wyoming.

Below is the list of juniors with invites to Minnesota junior day next weekend. Nice set of running backs and linebackers. Little down in a few other positions. If I am missing any, please feel free to send me a note at [email protected] Below are the Minnesota junior day invites...

Posted an article on MinnesotaPreps.com yesterday with an update on the Class of 2012 from Minnesota. Thought I would share the updates on the board: As of today there are a handful of players with Division 1 offers that are still uncommitted. The two biggest names are Eden Prairie LB Drake...

Posted this earlier on GI. Was working on the Class of 2013 top player lists and just saw a post that sophomore running back Jeff Jones from Washburn picked an offer from Minnesota. Needless to say....caught me by surprise.

Per request, I am still pulling together information, stats, and videos, but here is a first look at top players that have D1 potential from Class of 2013. Some nice running backs and offensive lineman...no surprise there. Feel free to send me updates at [email protected], if you know...

Will be an interesting two months for Minnesota seniors as the recruiting cycle moves into full swing. Will be interesting if the Gophers can pick anyone up as a preferred walk-on. Not many scholarship slots left to fill for this year's class. Below is link to the article. Below is the summary...
