The Gophers added twin brothers to their 2015 recruiting class Thursday, when Jacob and Julian Huff, of Bolingbrook, Ill., gave verbal commitments.
The 5-10, 205-pound Jacob Huff is a consensus three-star safety, and the 5-11, 220-pound Julian Huff is listed as a two-star inside linebacker in the 247Sports Composite.
Their mother, Dee Huff, posted news of their commitments on Facebook: "YES, THE TWINS VERBALLY COMMITTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MN TODAY!!!! … So proud of you both!!!"
Ryan Burns, of GopherIllustrated.com, posted a picture of both players from their recruiting visit.
With those two on board, the Gophers now have three commitments for 2015, including Chaska offensive tackle Bronson Dovich.
