2026 Recruiting



I'm shocked you can have a player who has not committed be on the floor. Doesn't that seem like some type of violation? lol
 





No, they often go on the floor during official visits.
Was this her official visit or just attending game? Don’t they just get one official visit for university? I could be wrong. Either way it don’t matter and it’s a cool thing, just never heard of it before a game like that lol
Hopefully it’s Tori!
 






Yay! I got really nervous when I saw she was announcing at 7. The same time the Gopher game started. She was wearing a “Minnesota” t shirt a couple summers ago at a breakdown tournament. I always thought that was a good sign. I’m honestly thankful the other recruit left Minnesota out of her top 6. I think that helped this get done!
 

That’s awesome! What a great get for the Gophers! Too bad she isn’t available tonight;)
 







For those in the metro area, you can watch Crosby-Ironton play in the Breakdown Tip Off at Hopkins on November 23 at 10:30 am. They are playing Jordan.
There are lots of other good teams playing throughout the day.

Okay, we are going to address this. Her name is Maddyn Greenway. This crap of "the other one" grow up. She isn't Voldemort in Harry Potter where you can't say her name.

Tori and Maddyn had their own recruiting journey and have a lot of respect for each other as competitors. I think we should follow suit showing respect for both of them.


Now to the commit. A huge local get and a player who will slide in perfectly as Mara and Amaya graduate. The staff really did put in the work for this one and it paid off big time!

Very excited about the addition of Tori to the team! I have always liked her as a player.

Perfect address it. I have zero problem with Greenway. I didn’t say “the other one” I said the other recruit. I was simply trying to make it about Tori! It was her announcement! I genuinely hope Maddyn has a great experience and picks a school that fits her. However if you think her publicity getting shoved down the junior classes throat doesn’t bother the athletes you’re wrong. Tori is just as good as Maddyn and has scored actually more than her. Is ranked right around her nationally despite not playing on a NT team where all the posts are about Maddyn. Tori gets way less attention than she does. I would have loved for Maddyn to be a Gopher but I never felt that was a possibility. I actually was trying to give her a lot of respect for not dragging the coaches along.
 

Re the speculation that Oehrlein might be reclassifying, a la Borowitz: I assume that might have been announced when she announced her choice, so it's likely moot, but also it doesn't seem to make much sense for her, does it? Competition is good, obviously, but the Gophers seem pretty set for lanky guards for this and next season (and, unlike Borowitz, COVID years are not a factor).
 

I would like to see Jahnke or Murray added to this class as that tall lanky guard. I don’t know if the Gophers have any interest in Murray.

Then obviously a big post.
 

Gophers are talking/having an interest in both Cail Jahnke and Vienna Murray however unclear if they have finally offered either of them yet or if it is still interest only.

Personally, if I had to pick one for the Gophers, it would be Cail.
 

Here is my dream recruiting class that no one asked for…

Jayla Williams to replace Battle
Oehrlein to replace Braun
Jahnke to replace Heyer
A big to replace Hart. There is a couple in this class. I am interested in Bell from Minot. The good ND girls seem to go Nebraska. I would love to steal one.
 

Ashlyn Koupal who coach P offered in February would be a great addition! She has a lot of offers though.
