Each week we will be taking a minute to talk with the Gophers about a topic going on in the world. This week we asked the guys what sport they would compete in at the Winter Olympics if they could.

Antoine Winfield Jr.: Snowboarding.

Jacob Huff: It would be ski jumping because I like the height, it's all how.

Thomas Barber: Easily I would do hockey. Hockey is my true love and always will be, but RTB.

Nate Umlor: Snowboarding because it goes fast and looks dangerous.

Casey O'Brien: Curling because my mom always makes me sweep the kitchen floor when I am home so I have practice.

Payton Jordahl: I would probably like to do curling. It seems pretty fun but very competitive as well.

Blake Cashman: I would do the biathlon because I like how it mixes cross country skiing with shooting.

Jerry Gibson: Halfpipe

Coney Durr: Bobsled.

Ko Kieft: I would definitely be in the halfpipe. If I kind of look like Shaun White, maybe I can snowboard like him. Let it be known that I'm an uglier version of Shaun so the snowboarding will also be subpar in comparison.
