A star high school athlete in Minnesota committing to play college sports for the Wisconsin Badgers is all too common, but a Wisconsin native going west to play for the Gophers doesn’t seem nearly as common. But the Gophers struck gold with four-star offensive lineman Nathan Roy committing on Saturday.
