Visited BU as well. It’s possible Minnesota hadn’t offered yet, given their current commits, but I’m not sure I believe all their fans who claim they weren’t interested at all

I'd believe it, Minnesota isn't a fan of playing much defense. He's not flashy enough to join the team 8 games below .500.

Now that you say his name I think I've asked that same question here before and got that answer then.  Crazy that this kid went from JV to Varsity to NTDP in roughly 16 months.

Bantam age kids play JV at HM…unless good enough for varsity. Many HM 8th graders play JV. Weird deal if you ask me.

They've been using that same tired old line for decades everytime they lose a prospect to another school. I don't even pay attention to that nonsense anymore.

Everything else aside, I am very glad to be getting a commitment from not only a USNTDP kid, but one from the Twin Cities. That's a player type that we have not had much success with in recent years, so I think it's big to tap back into both of those pipelines
