Austin Booker is an underrated (IMHO) DE out of Indiana, a recruit I've been particularly high on for awhile. He's got the kind of frame and baseline athleticism with which Doyle could do wonders. I could see him eventually becoming an All-B1G performer. Big loss for us. We've been recruiting him for quite awhile. He's been on campus at least twice.

I'm afraid PT Barham can actually get it done in the great white north. He's built the program the right way and he's competing for the top talent. Now...I still don't believe Minnesota is his final destination...but I'm sure he's had opportunities to leave. I would think he ends up at a blue blood program eventually. From what I understand, Minnesota winters are unpleasant. Opportunities in the West or South may be too much to pass up.

The Covid thing is really going to hurt the Gophers in teh next few years due to their budget shortfall. They have already given PJ and many of the other team coaches pay cuts due to the loss in revenue. IF the gophers are successful I don't see PJ sticking around for small potatoes.
Plus with his personality I would think a bigger market where he is the sole major program would suit him more so he could use his Dbag personality for endorsement deals. In town here he will always be second fiddle t the vikings unless he wins a NC which isn't goign to happen
