Promising new recruit

Dwayne Mitchell, a 6'2", 215lb linebacker from Louisiana, has made an oral commitment (giggity) to become a Golden Gopher next fall.

From neworleans.com:

"Dwayne is very explosive player, very hard working. He loves the game. Minnesota is getting a great football player and a great young man. He is academically qualified and will be a great contributor on and off the field at Minnesota. He was All-State, All-Metro and the district MVP. He squats 405 pounds, benches 315 pounds. He went to Minnesota this summer and he liked it. " - Edna Karr head coach Jabbar Juluke
