2027 QB Furian Inferrera has Flipped his Commitment from Boston College to Minnesota!

[Just Gopher It!!]

Is this good for a young QB's development?

He's at an elite program with high school elite resources and other elite players around him but QB on easy mode with his guys winning all their individual matchups ends the day he walks in the door for his first Gophers practice.

Their three Heisman trophy QBs, was a record, until Furio makes it 4.

I’d rest easy if I was you -
