Two-time NCAA champion and Big Ten Medal of Honor recipient Gable Steveson has one season of collegiate eligibility remaining.


University of Minnesota Director of Athletics Mark Coyle has released the below statement about the possibility of Steveson returning to Minnesota for his final year of eligibility.


“Gable is a generational talent and one of the most accomplished athletes – regardless of sport – in school and state history. He is an Olympic gold medalist, a two-time NCAA champion, a three-time Big Ten champion, and we are excited about the opportunity of him returning to Minnesota for one final season. The two-time Hodge Trophy winner and Big Ten Medal of Honor recipient is the most entertaining athlete in collegiate sports, and we are thrilled about the possibility of being able to watch him compete once again as a Gopher.”
