Gophers Land Top Tight End Commit

Big news from Minneapolis: Gophers secure top tight end commit Drake Mikkelsen for the 2027 class. The four-star stud from Lennox, South Dakota, had a standout junior year and chose Minnesota over heavy hitters like Wisconsin and Michigan State. Mikkelsen is the second-highest rated commit in the class, ranking as the seventeenth-best tight end nationally and the top recruit from South Dakota. The Gophers have a strong history of turning tight ends into NFL talent, and Mikkelsens commitment boosts the 2027 class to seven commits, including four-star defensive lineman Eli Diane and a trio from Moorhead. Minnesota is off to a hot start in the recruiting cycle. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
