The Gophers have received a commitment from Illinois tight end Jameson Geers. He chose Minnesota over offers from Iowa, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Illinois, Louisville, Purdue and others. The 6-foot-5, 223-pound tight end ranks No. 19 nationally among tight ends in the 2021 class, according to 24/7 Sports Rankings.
At the Opening Regional, Geers posted a 4.98 40-yard dash, 4.53-second shuttle and 30.6-inch vertical jump. Geers played both tight end and defensive end on the gridiron. He also participated in basketball and track and field (100-meter, shot put, discus and triple jump).
