Ryan Burns cryptically tweeted a gif of Will Smith looking shocked with no other explanation, then deleted it. Probably related to crystal ball for Dickerson

Coney Durr and Steven Ortiz also tweeting about it. I think it’s gonna happen

If we can snag this guy out of Nebraska's backyard and with all the other helmet school interest he is getting it would be an amazing get and would skyrocket the profile of the 2021 class. Even if we don't get him it is awesome that we are in the running for guys of this caliber, not something that can be taken for granted.

I'm way too invested now after that major national recruiting guy gave us the crystal ball for him. I'm all in and would be big time bummed.
 










Holy crap. I don't let myself get too wrapped up in recruits....but holy crap. Everyone in the country wants this kid.
 


I don't want to sound greedy all of a sudden....but....come on Riley!!! your next!!
 


Good grief! I go outside for a couple of hours, come back inside and see all of these new recruits! What a great day! Might not be over, too!

Great job killing it on the recruiting trail, Gophers staff!!
 

4 star prospects that haven't committed:

https://247sports.com/player/philip-riley-46050613/
https://247sports.com/player/junior-alexander-46048637/

Junior Alexander is currently predicted to go to Washington with 2 crystal balls, but still is "warm" to us. Sam Jackson has 1 crystal ball prediction of Notre Dame and is "cool" to us.

Everyone else has no Crystal balls and is "warm" to us. I have a feeling this class could get VERY exciting.
 

Correction: Mar'Keise Irving has a crystal ball prediction, but its an "Undecided" prediction so I don't really view it as counting.

FWIW, they update those lists based on who is a realistic prospect. E.g. the Green twins have been consistently moving down over the past few months.

I think it might just be a list of who has been offered.

By Minnesota's historic standards this class already qualifies as very exciting. If some of these other dominos fall our way though.....damn.....that would amazing.

Ortiz seems to have been the big chip, once he jumped in the boat others have been following suit. Long way to go until December but if this class holds together and adds some of these other high rated guys it has a chance to be a game changer of a recruiting class for the U of M and one that could help vault the program to a true contender if the players live up to their hype.
 

I would take our recruiting class over WI and IA any day of the week. Top 3 recruits are CB and QB vs. OL positions and athletes. I love that we are getting nationally recognized recruits at quality positions.
