Over the weekend, the Gophers made big news (the one and only pun in this post) by announcing commitments from a pair of offensive linemen who have been attending school and honing their skills at the IMG Academy, a sports training and boarding school in Bradenton, Fla.
What do 768 pounds of recruited Gophers linemen look like?
Star Tribune college football writer Randy Johnson will have more on these youngsters soon. For now, we thought you'd like to see their workout videos.
Offensive tackle Daniel Faalele is 6-foot-9 and weighs 400 pounds and Curtis Dunlap is a 6-4, 368 pound guard.
Star Tribune college football writer Randy Johnson will be writing more about the teenagers in the future. In the meantime, though, we figured you'd want to spend a few minutes watching their workout and highlight videos.
So here they are. It's a good five-minute break in your day. (We especially like Faalele showing off his dunking skills on the basketball court.)
The videos are from the website Under the Radar Sports Media.
