Illinois four-star DE Jason Bargy commits to the Gophers


STrib: P.J. Fleck snags four-star Gophers football prospect Jason Bargy, evens spring recruiting score with Notre Dame

Gophers football coach P.J. Fleck lost a recent recruiting battle with Notre Dame, but he responded by beating the Fighting Irish and other top schools for four-star Illinois junior defensive end Jason Bargy.

Bargy announced his commitment Wednesday night to play for Minnesota over programs such as Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Iowa and Michigan State. The 6-4, 255-pound Momence High School standout is the No. 2 ranked junior in Illinois and No. 99 in the Class of 2019 by 247Sports.com.

Fleck wasn’t able to land Edina four-star junior offensive tackle Quinn Carroll, who picked Notre Dame last week. But the Gophers responded with Bargy, the highest rated recruit to commit to the U since Eden Prairie’s Carter Coughlin in 2015.

Go Gophers!!
 

I don't pay for rivals any more, but there is a nice long thread on him committing here on the Illinois site. I'm curious to know how worried they are with Fleck raiding their state.
 


247 has him at 255. Wonder if it's just a typo from Greder. From the videos I've checked out he looks very explosive off the line and has a serious motor.

I don't know if you accidentally checked a different player, or maybe they have just updated their rankings, but he's ranked #190 in the 247 composite rankings. 247 actually has him ranked #99 in their own rankings.

Dude is wicked fast for how big he is! Can't wait to see him chasing down QBs in maroon and gold!
 














He rushed for over 1,200 yards as a sophomore while still being a full time defensive starter....
 

Why would he be chasing down quarterbacks wearing maroon and gold? I'd prefer he chase down QBs in red and white...

Sucks he couldn't qualify. Hopefully he gets in somewhere and gets an education
 




Not academics. From what I have read he has been charged with domestic battery/bodily injury and is in the slammer.
 





Does not fit the culture.

Best wishes to him and hope things get better for him.
