The Gophers football program gained a commitment Friday from Michael “MJ” Graham, a sophomore safety from Hutchinson Community College. He is the fifth pledge to Minnesota’s 2026 class over the previous week.
The 5-foot-11, 190-pound safety, with a three-star rating from 247Sports, had offers from Michigan State, Kansas State, West Virginia, Costal Carolina and Central Florida and others.
He and two other Hutchinson teammates visited the Gophers during their bye this week. Defensive lineman KJ Henson and receiver Derrick Salley were also on the trip, according to 247Sports.
Graham has 28 total tackles and six interceptions so far this season. He had 16 tackles and two picks as a freshman.
The Oklahoma City, Okla., native played quarterback as well as basketball at Westmoore High School. He was committed to play football at Houston before going to a JUCO.
