Minnesota Career

Well, we are now profiling a true Gopher legend who surpassed Darrell Thompson to be the program’s all-time leading rusher and sits atop the leaderboard for touchdowns.

In the 2018 season both Shannon Brooks and Rodney Smith went down with injuries and Ibrahim ended up starting 9 games. He rushed for 1,160 yards in that freshman season with 9 touchdowns. During the elite 2019 season, Ibrahim took a backseat to Smith for most of the season, rushing for just 604 yards.
