Theret key for Gophers

Give Kyle Theret some credit. When the 5-foot-9, 185-pound Minnesota safety goes looking for a fight on the football field, he’s not just picking on guys his own size. In his first season on campus last year, Theret got into it with 6-foot-3, 300-pound Gophers center Tony Brinkhaus in fall practice after a particularly hard hit on starting running back Amir Pinnix.
