Mike Rallis, the highly touted linebacker from Edina, is among a group of walk-ons who have committed to Minnesota. Six offensive linemen will walk on at Minnesota this fall -- Curtis James of Edina, Andrew Kersten of Minneapolis Washburn, Mike Harbin of Greenway of Coleraine, Alex Luhring of Metamora Township (Ill.), Connor Lee of Trabuco Hills, Calif., and Austin Hahn of Hartford, Wis. Other walk-ons include Jake Ferris, a running back from Arrowhead High in Hartland (Wis.), kicker David Schwerman from Kettle Moraine (Wis.) and linebacker Jarid Jackson from Champlin Park.
This sounds all fine and dandy, except that reports started surfacing on internet recruiting sites that at least three of these players have not committed to the Gophers.
According to GopherIllustrated.com, Minnesota's Rivals.com channel, Mike Rallis has yet to make his decision and is taking some more campus visits first.
On another message board at GopherHole.com, one poster claimed that Jarid Jackson has signed on to play at Concordia in St. Paul. Another poster shares a link saying that Connor Lee has signed scholarship papers to play at MSU-Mankato.
Wow. This is what makes his column fun.
