In a since deleted post on his Instagram 2013 3 star QB commit Cade Cannon accused the Minnesota coaching staff of changing the rules, being deceptive and hinted that he may be regretting his commitment to the Gophers.
The tirade was the result of the coaching staff asking him to forego his senior season of high school basketball, a sport he has been playing since he was five.
Jerry Kill, Matt Limegrover and Jim Zabrowski reportedly asked Cannon to get in the weight room this winter as opposed to playing basketball, possibly thinning out and risking injury.
Cannon planned to enroll early and already gave up his senior season of baseball in order to do so.
Efforts to contact Cannon and any of the Minnesota coaches have not yet been successful
We will monitor the situation and update when we can.
