Greetings Gopher commentariat. There are 45 more days until football. I played basketball yesterday in what felt like 107 degree heat, so fall cannot come soon enough for several reasons.
For the Gophers, Nick Hart wears 45. Hart is a redshirt sophomore from Prior Lake. He contributed on special teams last season, and played in 11 games. Hart is a Minnesota legacy as well. His father and mother both attended the U, playing football and swimming respectively.
Hart is on twitter at @nickhart81. He posts pictures of puppies like the one below occasionally, so that alone is reason enough for a follow.
