• Chanhassen's Frank Ragnow, a four-star offensive lineman, has made official visits to Arkansas, Minnesota and Florida State. He recently tweeted that he no longer will talk with reporters until he makes his decision.
• DeLaSalle junior offensive lineman Drayton Carlberg recently received an offer from Minnesota. Carlberg, 6-5 and 280 pounds, already has offers from Rutgers and Pitt.
• Senior receiver Adam Hoffman, who led Holy Angels to the Class 4A championship games (which the Stars lost to Hutchinson), has been invited to play at Princeton. Ivy League teams do not offer athletic scholarships.
