Minnesota Football Recruiting: Three-star defensive end M.J. Anderson commits to the Gophers

Missouri defensive end M.J. Anderson has claimed one of the last few oars for this recruiting class, verbally committing to play for head coach P.J. Fleck and the Minnesota Golden Gophers.

The Gophers first offered Anderson back in January, and there has been a steady stream of Power 5 scholarship since. He was on campus last weekend for the annual BBQ. Anderson is good friends with D’Vion Harris, another Missouri defensive lineman who committed in April.
