per ESPN:
Minnesota: With the departure of longtime starter Mitch Leidner, the Gophers' starting quarterback competition should be wide open under first-year coach P.J. Fleck. At the very least, Minnesota will have some experience in the quarterback room because Fleck convinced backup Conor Rhoda not to transfer. Rhoda, a fifth-year senior, played in three games last season and made his first career start in place of an injured Leidner against Maryland. He completed 7 of 15 passes for 82 yards with one touchdown. But there are a host of other quarterbacks vying for time. Demry Croft is the only other player with FBS game experience at Minnesota. Croft appeared in three games last season and completed 7 of 17 passes. Junior college transfer Neil McLaurin is on campus for spring practices. Seth Green and Mark Williams each redshirted last season, while Rey Estes and Tanner Morgan will be true freshmen.
