The hype is starting to build for Minnesota's star freshman.
When Koi Perich signed with Minnesota in December, he became the second-highest-ranked recruit in program history. He officially joined the team in June, and he is already turning heads.it's difficult for any true freshman to join a program in June and make a huge impact from Day 1, but they could see Perich "in the mix" at some point in 2024."He has the ability to be a playmaker, both on defense and special teams.
It seems as if his chances of contributing to Minnesota's secondary in Week 1 are a bit unrealistic, but he's been seen returning kicks this preseason, and him also helping out on special teams looks to be a much more likely scenario. Ultimately, Perich is one of the most talented players to put on a Gophers uniform in recent memory, so it might be tough to keep him off the field for too long.
