I ain't gonna lie and say I'm not wondering if this isn't the case, too, given what we've heard reported. But, I'm taking the optimistic approach, and hoping he's a better kid than it looks on the surface.
The media and fans always judge things too quickly and harshly, with very little info to base it on. What if CBJ simply wants him to commit on ESPN during one of these high profile camps...to give the program more media exposure? Didn't Bates do something like this last summer?
If that is the case, here we are fussing at him for not committing sooner. If he does commit, I think the whole Ferguson departure is a sobering object lesson for him. You had best come in here with your head screwed on straight and willing to work your arse off to be the best QB you can be.
-Ryan Bartow, National Recruiting Insider, 247SportsAuburn and Tennessee are tied right now with each other at one, Gibson said. They are both recruiting me the hardest.
The U.S. Army All-American broke down what he likes about his finalists.
1. Tennessee - I talk to coach Butch Jones a lot. I talk to the wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni a lot. Id like to talk to the quarterbacks coach Mike Bajakian more so I know his plan. I do enjoy talking to coach Zach. They have a great school and campus. They play in a great conference that I like.
The nations No. 14 overall prospect regardless of position will visit Auburn this for Big Cat weekend, starting Friday.
Im going with my teammates Tarvarus McFadden and Dredrick Snelson, Gibson said. Im looking forward to talking to the coaches again and getting a feel again for the campus and having fun.
In June, Gibsonn will head to Tennessee for its quarterback camp, which will feature Jon Gruden. Hell also be at The Opening in Beaverton, Ore., in July.
Gibsons plan remains to take all of his official visits in the fall before making his decision.
Ill probably make my commit a week or two after my season is done, Gibson said.
Which offensive schemes among his finalists does he feel best fit his skill set?
Tennessee, Ohio State and Auburn, he said.
As a junior, Gibson threw for 1,864 yards and 19 touchdowns while rushing for 1,032 yards and 10 touchdowns leading his team to a state championship.
Calm down. UT is still #1 for a 5* QB. Torrance is visiting during the big "Jon Gruden" recruiting weekend & BigBallsButch is still UT's HC. Ain't Worried Bout' Nothin'.

Lol how many top recruits are we in on every year? I think we are seriously used for many reasons. Really getting tired of not finishing up and being played
If Locksley does pick AU over Maryland, I could see it playing out where Gibson ends up in Orange. Just comes down to if CBJ is willing to wait or follows the others and takes a QB ready to commit a lot sooner.
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if TG commits to Tennessee before the end of summer. Butch is gonna turn up the heat big time at the QB camp imo.
CBJ could be in a position to just about force a commitment out of him. If OSU and AU have taken other QBs as they did not want to wait, CBJ could just about tell Gibson it's now or never.
Yep. Francois and Locksley are both planning to commit in July. Auburn is hard after both but I expect Locksley to commit to AU. At that point, Butch can really turn up the heat on TG and I'll bet he gets a commitment out of him. Jmo
Still appears Gibson is number 1 on our board according to our insiders. That's why he's coming to Big Cat. I think we will wait, especially since we have Queen already on board. Gibson is pure icing on the cake, and darn good icing at that.Yep. Francois and Locksley are both planning to commit in July. Auburn is hard after both but I expect Locksley to commit to AU.
