The Gophers were determined to add defensive linemen to this year's recruiting class, and they got one Tuesday from the same high school that produced Gophers receiver KJ Maye and defensive tackle Gary Moore.
Mose Hall, a defensive tackle from Mobile (Ala.) Murphy High School, gave the Gophers a verbal commitment. Rivals.com rates Hall as a three-star recruit who also had offers from Maryland, Illinois and Wake Forest. He is the Gophers' 22nd commitment for the 2015 class. He announced his decision on Twitter:
I am proud to say that I am committed to the University Of Minnesota!! #GoGophers #SkiUMah #BrickByBrick pic.twitter.com/j55q8rCKpP
