Yeah, if you look at Rivals say over the last 10 years our 5* gets/production has been ugly. Jesse Mahelona would be the only 1 I would add to Berry where it worked out well for UT.

Brown, Donald, Vinson, Morely, Toeina, Fisher, Da'Rick, Jackson, maybe a couple others.

Brown was alright as a TFR, just his family got in the way.

Da'Rick and Jackson were alright if they could have kept from lighting up.

Morley had a lot of talent, but don't recall what sent him packing.

What could have been with James Banks. Reminds me a lot of TG except TG appears to have his head screwed on right.

I followed that quote, and I didnt see anybody blasting you. I saw 1 poster that said UCF and USF were "no chance". I wouldnt call that getting blasted. Hes not even considering USF though.

The quote posted by engineerVol said he was considering UCF? Didn't TG announce on twitter that he wasn't playing college ball in Florida? Wasn't that one of his "shock the world" announcements?

There was some kind of % attached to it saying there is "this much % chance I will be leaving FL to play college ball". Looks like that % has taken a big swing the other direction.

It does look like he will be playing WR at the Opening during the 7 on 7 and not QB. They are allowing him to compete at QB in the elite 11 drills because he is there, but because he did not qualify through the events leading up to the finals he can't place in the final rankings.

“We were just catching up,” Gibson told 247Sports.com Saturday morning. “There were rumors going around that they had stopped recruiting me. He said he’s not where those things got out and I didn’t either. He said they are still recruiting me as a quarterback and they still want me to come.”
The Plantation (FL) American Heritage standout visited Tennessee and Auburn in June. Where to next?

“I might go to one or two places in July after The Opening,” Gibson said. “Maybe to Ohio State or Central Florida.”

The Buckeyes remain in contact.
“I haven’t talked to Urban Meyer or (offensive coordinator) Tom Herman in a while, but I still talk with (Director of Player Personnel Mark) Pantoni. He wants me to visit," Gibson said.
Miami is also keeping the lines of communication open.

“They are coming at me hard,” Gibson said. “I hear from Al Golden, (running backs) coach Hurlie Brown and (quarterbacks) coach (James) Coley. They are sending me pictures and videos. I think they might get (my teammate 2016 wide receiver Brandon) Snelson soon but I’m not 100-percent sure.”
The nation’s No. 1 dual-threat QB is also starting to hear from Arizona.

“They are coming into the recruiting process,” Gibson said. “They’ve been in contact and like my film. Hopefully they offer soon.”
The nation’s No. 16 prospect had hoped to make his college choice this winter.
“I’ll probably do it sooner now,” Gibson said. “Probably sometime in the middle of my season after a few official visits.”

The No. 6 overall prospect in the state of Florida told 247Sports.com that Tennessee led Auburn and LSU in order on June 12 following a five-day visit to Knoxville.

He’s since backed off having any leaders.
“I’m not sure right now,” Gibson said. “I need some time. I haven’t talked to all of the coaches I want to. I’m still considering Tennessee, Ohio State, Auburn, UCF, LSU, Arizona, Oklahoma and Miami.”

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.

So TG said a couple HRS ago that he did not have a leader. Now UT is the leader again. Oh yeah, I am buying this. Sounds like Chuma Edoga all over. Canes IF they will take him. Bartow may be telling TG how to handle things now. IMO it's damage control city. :)

As someone else pointed out, UCF could very well end up a player here.

Here are some Auburn recruiting nuggets to chew on this afternoon …

In a 247Sports Saturday update on 5-star athlete*Torrance Gibson, once a top Auburn quarterback target, Gibson barely mentioned the Tigers. Not that long ago, Auburn led and Tennessee was next. Then, the Vols moved in front.

Now, Gibson is claiming to have no leaders.

This falls in line with what we’ve been hearing in recent weeks, and that is that Auburn is going all out after 4-star quarterback Deondre Francois of IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla.

A source told us Saturday morning, Auburn was not pursuing Gibson “heavily at all” at the moment. That’s another indicator that Francois has become a major focus of the staff, and that is where the energy will be spent.

Saturday morning, he has no leaders. Saturday afternoon UT is back as the leader. Saturday night, no leaders.

Sounds about right for ole TG. :zeitung_lesen:

I wish this guy would pick a damn college already and stop playing games. What's the point of dragging things out? Most schools will already have their quarterbacks by then before he even announces where he's going. In my opinion, he needs to stop fooling around and stop changing leaders every single day of the week. It's just making him look like an idiot and I don't see how anyone could take him seriously.

You have to get kicked off another team before being the QB at AU, it's one of the traits they look for when recruiting. On their checklist for 'intangibles'.

RT @LukeStampini: Torrance Gibson mentions a possible UCF visit. Wouldn't shock me to see him eventually fall there.

Thought this was interesting tho, I could see this if Tn and others pass on him playing QB and he doesn't want to play WR.
