Didn't he go to Eden Prairie HS?

Accounted for Helms, TE, from Oklahoma.

Instantly becomes most experienced TE on roster … but I still want Dehnicke, too!

IMHO, we still really need an experienced TE from the portal. Of the 7 current TEs expected to be on the 2026 roster (3 are incoming FR), there are a total of 3 catches for 22 yards in 2025. Pierce Walsh has 2 for 17 and Julian Johnson has 1 for 5. That's it. That's not enough for a season in...

Because of the large HS class (31 signees) plus a transfer class up to 12 members, the Gophers are now very near a full roster of 105. We still need an experienced TE and another experienced DT. I suspect that, before the portal closes on Jan. 20th, we might see a few more rostered players hit...

Added Robbins, P, from Utah State and Bush, Edge, from Cal.

Still need an experienced TE.

Added K Beckham Sunderland from the Wolverines. K/O specialist?

I am very hopeful about Thompson’s commitment. He has excellent height, but he also is about 210-15 lbs. Differs from Malachi in that he’s built up more. Might actually be able to use his height and strength to give Drake the green light to throw down field, one-in-one balls that could end up...

Yup. That’s why I wish Kollock had stayed and developed in our system.

Looks as though the Gophs have signed two brothers from Michigan State, both DBs, one of whom we needed. Could be a starting CB opposite Nestor. Troubled by the radio silence on UMD TE Luke Dehnicke. He's got a lot of good offers ... but in a rational world he should a Gopher!

Our current roster for 2026 has 21 DL listed (counting Mo Omonode): 15 carryovers from 2025, one transfer and five incoming FR. That's a huge number of guys to carry for 4 spots on defense, especially when the DEs are already known. This "excess" will limit the numbers we can take in the portal...

Adding Elisha West and Ayden West, both CBs, from Michigan State. As with HS recruiting, PJ gets early commitments (low-hanging fruit?). Doesn't get left holding the bag if the top-end guys toy are chasing leave you in the dust. But might miss on some top-end talent by pulling the trigger on...

Given how the portal is working, at Penn State is going to look like at Iowa State last year, except with twice the number of people in the stands ... the offense is going to be more wide open, I suspect.

Notre Dame QB Kenny Minchey committed to Nebraska a few days ago. A got "get" for the Huskers. But before anything became official, Kentucky must have upped its bid, because Minchey flipped to them. IMHO, one of the best things that a team in Minnesota's position can do is have its its QB...

Good pun ...

Only designated kicker on the roster now is RS FR Jackson. RS FR Ryerse is also on the roster as a P, but I think he is a very capable K, too. Hard to believe PJ would roll with only Ks as two RS FR who have never executed a college-level FG ... but both have unusually high athletic ability for...

Added S Knutson from SMSU (Minnesota), Div II.

Added WR Thompson from Auburn.

Added DT Crowder from Marshall. I like the name Crowder for a DT …
