Signing Floyd a Tough Task for Gophers

Where will Michael Floyd go to college? To those asking, you might not get an answer for some time. The Cretin Derham-Hall wide receiver, a potential All-American, likely will have the highest profile of any player in the state during the season. Floyd is ranked No. 52 among the nation's top 100 senior prospects by Rivals.com. Floyd recently narrowed down his possible choices to 7 schools. The 7 include Minnesota, Florida, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Iowa and Wisconsin. The six other big name programs face new coach Tim Brewster with an uphill battle to sign the in-state recruit. Signing Floyd would be enormous for Brewster and the entire program because it would prove that he can attract nationally ranked and good local talent. Floyd is expected to choose his desired school during the middle of the high school football season.
