(*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.)
Over the weekend the Gophers received a verbal from the great state of Georgia where they have had quite a bit of recruiting success over the last few years. Junior Uzebu is teammates with running back commit Nolan Edwards and will continue their collegiate careers together up North.
Uzebu fills a position at offensive tackle and is one of the highest rated OL recruits that the Gophers have secured in recent years.
