Minnesota is on quite the roll on the recruiting trail. The Gophers are also locking down the top in-state prospects under head coach P.J. Fleck.
On Tuesday, Minnesota landed a commitment from in-state ATH Garrison Monroe. The Gophers recently offered Monroe and he was quick to act.
“I want to thank coach Scott Tiedens for believing in me and pushing me to be a leader in life,” Monroe wrote via Twitter. “I want to thank Coach Collins, Coach Haynes, and Coach Fleck for giving me this opportunity.
“With that being said I’d like to announce my commitment to further my academic and athletic career at the University of Minnesota!”
