All Things Class of 2026 Gophers Football Recruiting Thread (Offers, Videos, Tweets, Rankings and More)



We’re taking two QB’s and Pioneer press has a story about it behind their paywall.
 


15 days to signing day and holding at 30 commits at this point.

Five composite 4 starts on 247.
25th rated composite class
6th in the B1G
15th in average grade in B1G

How much will this change in 15 days?
15th in average grade isn’t great.
 


15th in average grade isn’t great.
Of the worthless team metrics the average per recruit one is probably the most worthless. There are 4 classes in the Big Ten where the average recruit ranking is 90 or better (USC, Oregon, Ohio State, Michigan).

We are in the 87.xx range with 5 other teams, there are 4 in the 88.xx range, and 2 each in the 89.xx and 86.xx range. In other words we are recruiting players that on paper are very comparable to the players being brought in by 13 of the other 17 teams in the conference.
 


247 jumped Howie Johnson 4 points to a 94. He's now our highest rated 26 recruit on their rating system.
Rico Blassingame and Aiden Aytch now both 90 4-stars and are our # 3 and 4 rated recruits.
Cold Spring tackle Andrew Trout drops to 3 star, 89.

A jump of 4 points is pretty rare, and pretty cool.
 

We should see if we can get Howie Johnson Forest Lake teamate to walk on as a kicker. Kids got a cannon of a leg and new to football. I mean would be a sure thing on kick offs as far as high and deep kicks. Seems like the diamond in the backyard type kicker. We do have the Alexandria kid from 2025 though.
