The Gophers have received a commitment from four-star Omaha, Nebraska cornerback Avante Dickerson. He held offers from Nebraska, Oregon, Georgia, Iowa, LSU, Ohio State, Texas and others.
Dickerson, a four-star prospect, is the top recruit in Nebraska, according to 24/7 Sports. He becomes the program’s second-highest rated commit (0.9609) of the internet era, per 24/7 Sports data. Dickerson is the No. 6 cornerback in the nation and joins four-star Arizona defensive back Steven Ortiz Jr. in the 2021 class. P.J. Fleck and his staff continue to raise the bar in recruiting. When everything is complete, the 2021 class is shaping up to be the best in school history.
