Football Recruiting ***NEW RB TARGET PLANNING SUMMER OFFICIAL***

Jaydon Wright is already in the fold, but the Gophers are looking to add a second dynamic running back to their 2024 recruiting class.

Recently, Leesburg (Ga.) Lee County talent Devin Collier caught the eye of Minnesota running backs coach Nic McKissic-Luke, who quickly extended an offer.

Consider the interest mutual for the three-star talent.

"Very interested," Collier said of Minnesota. "I have an official set up for June 16-18th."

Admittedly, there wasn't a lot of contact between Collier and Minnesota before the offer came down, but McKissic-Luke has made a strong impression on the 6-foot, 200-pound talent so far.

"He's an outgoing coach and he understands me. Keeps it 100 at all times."

Collier excels on both sides of the ball for his high school team, playing running back, safety, and returning kicks.

It's that kind of versatility and athleticism that has McKissic-Luke interested in adding him to the backfield.

"(He likes that I'm) very versatile good build and can move and fast."

For now, Collier also has an official visit scheduled with Duke for June 23rd. He also recently visited Memphis, where he also possesses an offer.

Johnson-Arigu has seen his recruiting process pick up quite a bit this spring, receiving recent offers from Stanford, George Mason, Drake, Richmond, Northwestern, and Colorado State the last few weeks.

Minnesota already has commitments from Isaac Asuma and Grayson Grove in the 2024 class and for now, there doesn't appear to be a strong push to add anyone else to the 2024 class, although Minnesota could add a versatile wing or a bonified center to the class.

They are showing some interest in Johnson-Arigu, who told me he's been communicating with Gophers assistant Dave Thorson so far.

"I really like his honesty," Johnson-Arigu said of Thorson. "He’s been very honest with my about the situation at the U and where they’re at with recruiting with me."

The Totino-Grace product said that Minnesota is still evaluating their options in the portal and depending how things go there, it could allow the Gophers the possibility to pursue him in the 2024 class.

Johnson-Arigu noted that Thorson said he likes his versatility and how hard he plays. He's coming off a big weekend at the the Battle at the Lakes event.
