Minnesota Football Recruiting: Boye Mafe commits to Gophers!

(*Editor's note...What the heck does "Commitment to Eight" mean? It is our new recurring title for recruit commitments referencing a commitment to work towards the Gopher's Eighth National Championship.)

P.J. Fleck has shown a theme of getting commitments from athletic defensive ends and that theme continues tonight as Boye Mafe of Hopkins has giving his verbal to the Gophers.

The state’s #3 player, a 3-star recruit and quite possibly the last commitment to the class of 2017 giving us a total of 28 commits.

Long, lean defender.
