Well the latest on the 5* QB out of South Florida; 3 nights ago he talked with Butch Jones, the head coach at Tennessee. Butch reconfirmed with Torrance that he's the top guy on their board, still recruiting him as a QB, and the Vols are on top for his services.
last week on bucknuts.com i had an item in my daily buzz that 5-star quarterback/athlete torrance gibson has been talking to ohio state director of player personnel mark pantoni and gibson is working on getting up to ohio state for a visit before the end of the summer. Some had written off gibson when in regards to the buckeyes, but when it comes to urban meyer and his staff, they rarely give up on a great talent. And there is absolutely no question gibson is a great talent.
So i checked in with a source familiar with gibson and his recruitment and got this report.
i can see ohio state and auburn involved all the way, the source said. gibson has freakish speed. All three schools that had been really involved, ohio state, auburn and tennessee, had to go get another quarterback to cover their bases. but im not convinced tennessee is going to stay in this. at the end i could see ohio state and auburn still there. Theres going to be other schools too like miami, central florida and some others. But i can see ohio state staying involved.
Trust has been the recurring buzz word with this staff when concerning the QB position. It's the reason Ferguson found himself down the depth chart despite his ability at the position. I see no way they could bring Gibson in as a QB if those rumors of maturity issues are true.
Well the coaches know what they are doing. We need talent like Gibson on the team. Simple maturity issues can be fixed. Also a lot of these so called issues, have been just rumors and are just conjecture. If CBJ wants him then so should the rest of us.
I'd still like to land TG, but I'm comfortable with where we are at having the two guys we have already.. I like that we have a similar type qb in JJ and another guy that could really blow up this year..Makes this TG stuff a lot less stressful.
