Braelen Oliver, a 6-1, 218-pounder from Douglas County High School in Douglasville, Ga., announced via Twitter that he has committed to Minnesota. He has a three-star rating from 247Sports and had offers from Indiana, Iowa State, North Carolina State and West Virginia, among others.
The commitment is the 23rd for the Gophers' class of 2018.
