Gophers QB Tanner Morgan is watching Minnesota "row together" during the COVID-19 pandemic

When Gophers quarterback Tanner Morgan traveled home for spring break, he didn’t anticipate his plans would drastically change. A quick trip home turned into an indefinite stay at his family home in Kentucky. The COVID-19 pandemic indefinitely suspended spring football activities across the country.

Luckily, Morgan happened to pack additional clothes and checked a bag for his trip. This decision turned out to be key, even if he had to buy a new iPad.

“It was kind of a whirlwind because we just thought we were coming back on Saturday from Spring Break and that stay was obviously extended, so it was kind of wild how all of it went down,” Morgan said Tuesday.
