Minnesota Football: The Monday Perspective is controversial

Related Topics: Tanner Morgan, Mohamed Ibrahim

Well, the Gopher football program may have a small problem. We very well may be smack dab in the middle of a quarterback controversy. Tanner Morgan is in his 5th year as the starting quarterback for the Gophers. He has 33 career wins while starting and holds multiple Gopher passing records. One could argue that he is the best Gopher quarterback we have seen in decades.

On the other hand, he has struggled at times this season, including the first half of the Nebraska game on Saturday. Redshirt freshman, Athan Kaliakmanis entered at halftime to spark the offense and lead the Gophers to a comeback win over the Cornhuskers.
