2015 4* ATH Torrance Gibson (Ohio State signee)

[JFDTiger80 790]

Looking more likely Gibson is LSU bound.

We're going to hate playing this guy for 3-4 years as he will likely start from Day 1.

He will be a disaster as a true freshman. SEC defenses will hurt him until he learns the playbook and can throw the ball accurately. LSU looks like they are closing strong if they pick him up.

Agreed. True Freshman QBs never fare well in the SEC.

But 3-year Juniors and 4-year Seniors as starters are awfully tough to deal with.

If we play against him, better get him the first time around.......which just happens to be in Death Valley.

Haven't smoked cigars there since last Century,

Hoke just CB'd him to Auburn.

Hoke just CB'd him to Auburn.

Wow. I hope it's more than just speculation.

Hoke just CB'd him to Auburn.

Wow. I hope it's more than just speculation.

From what I know and have heard about Hoke, he has a very high percentage rate of success with his CB predictions and usually bases the predictions off of real information.

Word. He's probably got the highest ceiling of anyone we're after who isn't royalty in some distant land. Would do cartwheels if we land him.

[VipersStrike1 230]

Hoke just CB'd him to Auburn.

Wow. Interesting. IIRC, he and Jay Tate are the only two to CB him to AU thus far.

Well some true freshman QB's have proven to do well, it is rare though. Johnny Football, Aaron Murray, and Matt Stafford to name a few. The 2 UGA QB were terrific passers, and J Football never learned the playbook he was just a freak with the ball. LSA had a good True freshman last year in Harris, but he did not know the playbook.

Manziel was a redshirt freshman.

JF and Murray were Redshirt Freshmen.

Stafford's True Freshman season was very erratic. Did not start to impress until the AU game.

Wasn't the kid from A&M a freshman that ate us up?

In his first start, yes.

From the South Carolina game on, who didn't eat us up?

Yes, true, but I think he went on to have a great season as a freshman for A&M.

Played well in 3 of 5 starts. Threw an INT in all of them. Should have thrown a pick six to Jonathan Jones.

So where did all this optimism about Gibson come from?

You are right. So not as good as I thought.

[JFDTiger80 790]

Deondre Francis tweeted this afternoon he was decommitt my from FSU. Is he a secret visitor. There are rumors of him going to FL. He is outstanding.
