Fleming Island (Fla.) Bolles defensive lineman Garrison Butler already has plenty of options as nearly 20 programs have extended offers so far.
However, Minnesota is one of the programs that is sticking out the most. So much so, that the 6-foot-2, 270-pound talent already has an official visit locked in with the Gophers this summer.
"An official visit, June 16th-18th," Butler said of when he'll visit the Twin Cities.
Since picking up his offer from the Gophers back on February 26th, Butler has been in frequent talks with with head coach P.J. Fleck and defensive line coach Winston DeLattiboudere III.
"Both great guys. I love the fact they text me everyday and call me every other day. Their football knowledge is top notch."
As Minnesota continues to build a physical front line, both Fleck and DeLattiboudere feel Butler has the tools to become an impact player in the Big Ten.
"(They like) my power and violent hands on the line."
Butler has also taken a virtual tour of the campus and facilities with the coaching staff in preparation for his summer official.
"Very impressed with everything. It looks amazing," Butler said of his virtual tour.
He noted that he's looking forward to seeing how Minnesota runs their program and getting a chance to see the campus and facilities in-person during his summer official.
Butler is coming off a recent two-day visit with Iowa State. He'll be at Cincinnati this upcoming weekend and he also has a summer official planned with Oregon State as well.
