A tumultuous transfer portal period is over for former Western Michigan Bronco running back Sean Tyler, who announced his intent to join the Minnesota Golden Gophers via Twitter on Friday afternoon.
Tyler had previously committed to the Oklahoma State Cowboys back in December, shortly after the conclusion of the WMU football season, but was flipped late by former WMU coaches PJ Fleck and Greg Harbaugh Jr.
Harbaugh, who was recently named Minnesota co-offensive coordinator, had previously been on the WMU staff in 2020 and 2021 as a wide receivers coach. Harbaugh also had a stint as an assistant with WMU under Fleck in 2015 and 2016.
