Hastings star running back flips his commitment from South Dakota State to @GopherFootball.
After much thought, prayer, and conversations with my family, I’ve decided to decommit from South Dakota State University. I’m grateful to the SDSU coaching staff for always believing in me.
Thank you to my family, coaches, teammates, trainers, and everyone who has supported me throughout this journey.
I’m blessed and excited to stay close to home, compete in the Big Ten!
I’m 100% committed to the University of Minnesota! 🏈
