The female student trainer/manager?






(I'm referencing the ND scandal in case anyone doesn't know what I am talking about)

^ Duh. I'm sure the good Rev. John I. Jenkins will tell the student trainer to say 10 hail mary's and ask the other important position to throw a couple on Saturdays and that all will be forgiven.

From California to Minnesota

The Gophers are excited about the development of sophomore receiver Drew Wolitarsky, who caught 15 passes for 259 yards and one touchdown last year.

Wolitarsky, who graduated from Canyon County High School in Santa Clarita, Calif., talked about how he ended up at Minnesota.

“Long story: [Defensive backs coach Jay] Sawvel came out to recruit me when I was ending my junior year, he brought a pamphlet that said ‘Minnesota,’ ” Wolitarsky recalled. “I said, ‘I think these guys used to play USC right?’ I said that in my head, not to him, but I wasn’t really sure what program I expected, just corn, that is what it is here outside of the cities. But I came here on my visit, loved it, caught me off guard, and I decided to try it out and come here.”

Wolitarsky said he had offers from San Jose State and San Diego State, but no Pac-12 schools offered him scholarships, despite setting California records for career receptions and receiving yards in high school.

Wolitarsky said he expects nothing but improvements this season from the passing game.

“I truly believe it will [be better],” he said. “I think it already has [improved].”

One of the reasons Wolitarsky is so confident is the play of sophomore quarterback Mitch Leidner.

“I love him,” he said. “Love Mitch, a great guy, a great leader. I love when he throws to me. It’s always where I want it and I think it has definitely gotten better from last year.”

Guess Arizona wasn't part of the PAC-12 in 2013
Here is another source mentioning Arizona offer.
 


This news about Lauer is a little bit concerning. Make sure he's 100% before playing him, even if it means he misses the opener.

Does anyone know at what point they will be releasing a depth chart?

If I remember correctly from the past few years it's usually the night before the game, so Wednesday.

Did I miss something? Mortell isn't locked in at the starting punting job?!

I'm pretty sure he is. Kill mentioned Eldred has had a good camp so it's probably just the coaching staff acknowledging that.
