The Butcher’s Word: Minnesota Gophers

It’s pig week and the Hawkeyes are poised to travel north looking to bring home the bacon, which left with PJ Fleck and the Minnesota Golden Gophers a season ago. This year’s version of the Gophs looks a bit different as Fleck and company saw 18 players transfer out of the program following last season, only to be replaced by 13 transfers in from all over.

With Iowa and Minnesota set to face off for the 118th time in program history, it’s time to get to know more about the 2024 Minnesota Golden Gophers.

In the words of the wise and sage-like Big Tom Callahan, you can get a good look at a t-bone by sticking your head up a bull’s rear end, but wouldn’t you rather take the butcher’s word for it?
