Minnesota Football 2023 Preview: Upgrade or Downgrade for Gophers Offensive Line

The Gophers have had an offensive lineman drafted in back-to-back NFL Drafts, so there has been some talent running through the program in recent years. With 3 graduates with a number of starts under their belt, there will be some changes along the line this year. Will the program be able to sustain it’s success with this unit?

2022

Starter: Aireontae Ersery, Alex Ruschmeyer, John Michael Schmitz, Chuck Fliaga, Quinn Carroll
Depth: Martes Lewis, Nathan Boe, Karter Shaw, JJ Guedet

The Gopher offensive line was really quite good last year. Just ask Mohamed Ibrahim.
