per Marcus:

P.J. Fleck isn't shy about playing true freshmen, even if it's just to give them a taste of college football before redshirting.

Some of them, though, are ready to help the Gophers football team win sooner than others.

Running back Mar'Keise "Bucky" Irving and cornerback Justin Walley are the latest true freshmen making an impact for the Gophers (2-1), who host Bowling Green on Saturday at Huntington Bank Stadium.

"Playing as a true freshman is very difficult," Fleck said. "We're playing some youthful players who are very talented. They're just scratching the surface of what they're going to be."


Go Gophers!!
