per Gonzalez:
Jackson Erdmann, the former Rosemount star quarterback and walk-on at Penn State last fall, quietly enrolled at St. John’s this month. He changed his Twitter bio to read “SJU Football #Johnnies,” but otherwise kept his transfer from the Big Ten to the MIAC under the radar.
His move to Collegeville, however, could make a big splash in the longstanding Johnnies-Tommies rivalry.
Jacques Perra, the former Roseville star quarterback and Gophers third-string quarterback last season, on Tuesday announced that he would transfer to St. Thomas.
Their arrival could propel the 115-year-old rivalry to new heights over the next three years.
“It will definitely make it more interesting, especially with our game in high school in the [2013] state semifinals my senior year, how close and good of the game that was,” Perra said. “And then we both ended up at Big Ten schools and then coming back to smaller D-III schools in the MIAC. Especially, with how big the Tommie-Johnnie rivalry already is … it won’t make it more interesting, but it could add more effect from me and him playing on those teams.”
