HOW GIBSON FITS IN WITH THE VOLS?

Gibson is a long and athletic cornerback who runs well with receivers. Whether it be in zone coverage or man, Tennessee’s new commit has no problem staying with the outside receiver and making a play on the ball. He’s physical at the point of attack and presses well when asked. He sets the edge well and comes down hill to help in the run.
At cornerback, Gibson is one of the more physical players on the field – never shying away from contact. He does a nice job of reading the quarterback’s eyes, but doesn’t get caught in the backfield as he makes habits in reacting to that of his receivers – usually ending up in pass deflections. Once the ball is in the air, he runs under it. Gibson high-points the football when it’s a true 50/50 ball and is athletic enough to come away with it. With his physical nature, he’ll fit in well at the SEC level.

So what does the write up look like for a four or five star?

Based on this assessment, this guy is the full package. Sounds a lot like the honey badger who was originally a 3-star player. It makes you wonder what he is missing to still only be a 3-star. Possibly elite speed but the other strengths minimize that. I'm seeing he is on the lighter side so maybe if he was 190lb then he would have that extra star.

I will have to look at his film.
