Gophers lBs at a glance
• The Gophers use a three-linebacker scheme and senior Aaron Hill is the lone returning starter. He'll hold down one outside spot.
• The battle at middle linebacker is between junior college transfer Damien Wilson and redshirt freshman Jack Lynn.
• Senior James Manuel could hold down one outside spot, but junior college transfer De'Vondre Campbell is one to watch at 6-5, 225 pounds.
