Carter Coughlin, a 6-foot-4, 212-pound four-star senior linebacker from Eden Prairie, is considered the top in-state product from the Class of 2016. Coughlin helped lead the number one ranked Eagles to a fourth straight state title last season. Coughlin was a big time commitment for the Gophers this summer and has been showing his natural leadership skills in bringing the 2016 recruiting class together throughout the summer.
Gopher Hole caught up with Coughlin after a 28-20 win over Maple Grove Friday night to learn the latest on his senior year.
