More on the other 2018 offersOturu, who is averaging 18 points, 17 rebounds and seven blocks this season, picked the Gophers after also receiving scholarship offers from schools such as Kansas, Texas, Nebraska, Georgia Tech and Memphis. Baylor was runner-up.
The Gophers also offered Apple Valley’s Tre Jones, Armstrong’s Race Thompson and DeLaSalle’s Gabe Kalscheur. Jones, Thompson and Oturu are the top three players in the state’s junior class.
Tre Jones - younger brother to Timberwolves' Tyus Jones
(another future Dukie???)
Race Thompson - son of former Gopher RB Darrel Thompson
Gabe Kalscheur - led DeLasalle to title last spring, beating Fergus Falls

Challenging times for Tim Miles at Nebraska, losing a 4th player to transfer this spring, 2 of whom were front-line regulars.
http://journalstar.com/sports/husker...b9afbfb1a.htmlThe Nebraska men's basketball team made it official early Monday evening, announcing that sophomore Michael Jacobson will transfer at the end of the spring semester.
The 6-foot-9 forward from Waukee, Iowa, is the second Husker regular to ask for his release in the last 12 days, joining Ed Morrow. That makes half of Nebraska’s "core" group — the four players who joined the program as freshmen two seasons after NU’s NCAA Tournament run — to leave the program this spring......
......Nebraska finished 16-18 in Jacobson's freshman season with six freshmen and sophomores on the roster and went 12-19 this year with seven freshmen and sophomores.
Michael Jacobson is a brother of NDSU women's player Reilly Jacobson.
The article mentions he is looking at Iowa State.
Saul Phillips loses a grad transfer to Michigan
http://www.freep.com/story/sports/co...fer/100873696/“Jaaron informed me today of his intention to transfer to Michigan," Ohio coach Saul Phillips told the paper in a statement. "We are disappointed in his decision, but wish him luck."
Simmons would be instantly eligible as a grad transfer. He was a first-team All-Mid-American Conference player, averaging 15.9 points and 6.5 assists per game.
Mr Augustana happy (I assume) as 6' 7" Adam Dykman is transferring to Augustana and Coach Billiter from SDSU
