Minnesota football has added another commitment to its 2027 recruiting class, securing a pledge from running back Greg Hargrow out of Rosa Fort High School in Tunica, Mississippi. Hargrow, who rushed for nearly 1,300 yards and 22 touchdowns last season, is known for his 4.4 speed and will join quarterback Furian Inferrera and defensive lineman Eli Diane as the third commit in the Gophers' 2027 class.

Why it matters

The addition of Hargrow provides Minnesota with a talented running back prospect with elite speed, helping to bolster the Gophers' future offensive backfield. Hargrow chose the Gophers over offers from several other programs, showcasing the program's ability to recruit top talent from outside the state.

The details

Hargrow, a 5-foot-10, 175-pound running back, had offers from Arkansas State, Liberty, New Mexico State, Mississippi Valley State, and Kent State before ultimately choosing Minnesota. He developed a relationship with Gophers' running backs coach Mo Ibrahim, who previously coached at Kent State. In his junior season, Hargrow rushed for nearly 1,300 yards on 149 carries, scoring 22 touchdowns. He also added 8 receptions for 117 yards and a touchdown, demonstrating his ability as a dual-threat back.

  • Hargrow committed to Minnesota on February 19, 2026.
