per ESPN:
Since the Vikings are waiting for a new downtown stadium to be built, Sunday's game will take place at the same TCF Bank Stadium where Hageman played his college home games. It opened in 2009, which was Hageman's first year at Minnesota. The Golden Gophers were 17-18 at the venue with Hageman on the team, including his redshirt season.
"It's just a regular stadium, man," Hageman said. "There's no magic about it. I actually was there when it first got built. We played Air Force the first game. It's a great environment; great facility. And, just look forward to going to Minnesota and playing against [the Vikings]."
Eric Hageman is eager for his son's return.
"We're all really excited to have Ra'Shede come home to Minnesota and play in the stadium where we've watched him play so many times over the past four years," the father said.
"My two personal favorite memories were watching Ra'Shede play his best college game as the Gophers beat Nebraska last year for their fourth straight Big Ten win. And, of course, Senior Day, which was made even sweeter because Ra'Shede had just finished his final class and was actually graduating from college, which, to us, was a more significant accomplishment than anything he ever did on the field."
