Future Gopher Cole Kramer: "It has always been a dream of mine to play for the Gophers."

Cole Kramer, a 6-foot-1, 175-pound junior quarterback from Eden Prairie (MN) High, helped lead the Eagles to a 13-0 record this past season, winning the Class AAAAAA tournament over Minnetonka 38-17.

Kramer was the first player from the Class of 2019 to commit to Minnesota.

Kramer completed 72 of 101 passes for 1191 yards and 18 touchdowns this year.

Kramer comes from an athletic family. His uncle, Mike, was a backup quarterback for Rickey Foggie in 1984-85 after starting his career at North Dakota. His uncle, Bob Coughlin, was a two-year letterman for the Gophers as a defensive tackle in 1989-90 and married Jenny Moe, who was named to the All-Big Ten team four times for the Gophers in tennis.
