per Greder:

Some of Minnesota’s football players got a crash course in cabin life this summer, courtesy of junior center Matt Leidner, who invited the offensive line and backfield for a weekend at his family’s cabin in northern Minnesota.

At times it was pretty funny, such as the time the running backs nearly capsized a pontoon boat when they all crowded to the front to see a fish in the water.

“The back of the pontoon is in the air, and I was like, ‘Oh, get back! Get back!’ “ Leidner recalled Tuesday.

Then there was the time some of the running backs wore two life jackets — one the traditional way, the other upside down like a diaper — because they can’t swim.

“But they were jumping in the lake, which is pretty cool because they couldn’t see the bottom, and they were a little scared,” Matt said. “They went for it. The O-line was just sitting in the water. It was really nice.”

Go Gophers!!
 

That is pretty damn funny. Would have loved to see that.
 

The number of people who don't know how to swim is always amazing to me
