Yes, that headline is correct: PrepHoops.com’s Ryan James has reported the Hilltoppers have offered four different prospects from the state of Minnesota in the 2020, 2021 and 2022 classes.
Now, I will concede that these offers might not have come on the same day, but they certainly were reported all at once.
Anyway, lets dive in!
Jalen Suggs, 6'5", 185 Guard c/o 2020
Suggs is a five-star prospect and is considered to be the number one player from the state of Minnesota by 247Sports, who also says he’s the 12th-best player in the class.
247 lists 17 additional offers, including UCLA, Pitt, Creighton, Baylor and Kansas. The services’ crystal ball projections have him going to Ohio State.

Dain Dainja, 6'8", 240 Center c/o 2020
Dainja is a big boy, coming in at 6'8" and 240 pounds as a high schooler. Goodness.
247Sports calls him a four-star player, ranking him the third best player in the state. He holds offers from Marquette, Baylor, Clemson, Georgetown and Indiana among his 16 other offers.
Chet Holmgren, 6'11" 190 Center c/o 2021
With still a good amount of time left to make a decision, the Tops are getting in on essentially the ground floor with Holmgren, who holds offers from Minnesota, Purdue and Texas A&M.
Prince Aligbe, 6'5" 185 Forward c/o 2022
What a name. I want him on the Hill for the name alone.
Anyway, Future150.com ranks Aligbe #30 in the class and #8 at the position.
Among his strengths listed by F150 are his agility, athleticism, rebounding on the defensive glass and defense while saying he needs to improve on…well, offense. But, there’s still some time.
