Per SI:
Gophers redshirt-senior defensive lineman Jah Joyner vowed to do something that hasn't been done in 16 years by a Minnesota football player: reach double-digit sacks.
"That is my goal to be a double-digit sack guy," said Joyner at Thursday's Gophers media day.
Joyner came up 2.5 sacks short of accomplishing that goal last season. The last time the Gophers had a player record double-digit sacks was Willie Vandesteeg in 2008. Since then, Carter Coughlin was the closest during his 9.5-sack 2018 season.
