Big Ten basketball offers, including Gophers, come in bunches for Cretin-Derham Hall sophomore Ty Schlagel​

Cretin-Derham Hall’s Ty Schlagel had one of the best summers out of any basketball prospect in Minnesota, which solidified his status as the state’s No. 1 player in the Class of 2027 entering this school year.

That didn’t necessarily mean Division I scholarship offers would come flying in this fall, especially since he’s only a sophomore. Last week, however, the 6-7, 190-pound Schlagel received his first three D-I offers. Not surprising, considering his talent.

The surprising part? The Gophers, Iowa and Wisconsin all offered in the span of a few days after scouts watched him during his school’s open gym last week. Schlagel also recently took unofficial visits to the Gophers and Badgers.

“It was really special to get that first offer,” Schlagel told the Star Tribune. “I’ve been working so hard over my life for basketball.”

Iowa, Iowa State, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Colorado State, St. Thomas, South Dakota State and Minnesota were among the programs represented at the team workout. The D-I men’s basketball recruiting calendar allows coaching staffs to make in-person contact and evaluate prospects off campus from Sept. 4 through April.

Gophers coach Ben Johnson and assistant Dave Thorson watched Schlagel work out last week before making him the program’s first offered 2027 prospect.

“Ben Johnson really liked my game and how I play,” Schlagel said. “Getting that offer is really special because I’ve watched Minnesota growing up. So, it was really cool to get an offer at that level.”
