Both members of P.J. Fleck’s first recruiting class at Minnesota, Tanner Morgan and Chris Autman-Bell became fast friends when they got to the Twin Cities.
Now, they stay late after every practice and work on extra routes — including the fade routes that were so effective for the Golden Gophers in their 34-31 win over Purdue on Friday night at TCF Bank Stadium.
Autman-Bell models the concepts after teammate Rashod Bateman, who’s destined for the NFL, and last year’s top receiver Tyler Johnson, who’s already there.
“I hope I can just keep that train going,” Autman-Bell said. “But it’s something we work on all the time.”
