per ESPN:
Calhoun earned praise from several media outlets after the game -- like this, and this -- but the Georgia native didn't just wait until the scrimmage to break out. He started making an impact weeks before that; offensive line coach Bart Miller complimented him back in March.
"Vince has had a great spring," Miller told a group of reporters. "He's shown he is a very tough competitor and, as he continues to grow and get more developed and understand the offense, I think you're starting to see him really mature."
Because the Gophers lack some depth here, Calhoun has quickly become a valuable part to this offense. Claeys said right tackle Jonah Pirsig was may be the spring's offensive MVP -- he's a two-year starter with 32 games of experience -- so it's clear the right side of this line should cause a lot more problems for opposing defenses in 2016. Calhoun will only get better.
