The Gophers return to spring practice tomorrow for their first workout in full pads. I’ll check in afterward with an update.

I had a chance to sit down and talk with junior college transfer David Pittman for the first time and I came away impressed. He seemed like a bright guy who is confident but not cocky.

I asked Pittman about playing different positions and he said he loves the challenge. He said the Gophers spread offense is similar to the one he ran at Pasadena City College so the only real adjustment is learning new terminology.

It will be interesting to see how Tim Brewster and OC Mike Dunbar incorporate Pittman into this offense.

I’ll have a profile of Pittman in Tuesday’s paper.
