Longtime Georgia Tech commit
Jahmyr Gibbs was one of the hottest prospects of the fall, garnering offers and becoming a prime target of programs like Ohio State, Alabama and others. Because he’s a late-comer to the national scene, not many of the other prospects have had a chance to see Gibbs in action. That’s why when Gibbs was blowing by opposing linebackers in receiving 1-on-1s other players could be heard fawning over his speed. Even going against the top linebackers in the country, Gibbs was basically uncoverable, adding another dimension to his impressive game. He’s the lowest-ranked running back on the East roster, but that might not be the case if things continue trending the way they are this week.

His highlights make it seem like he paid each of his opponents to not tackle him. I can't tell if his opponents just aren't that good or if he's making all those plays. If nothing else, his vision is very very good. He's really good at taking advantage of defender's footwork and body positioning.

Don't want him to go elsewhere, but I'm thrilled to be going head-to-head with Bama and OSU for an elite recruit where [presumably] Tech is the leader.

From Banner Society:


At running back, one name stood out: Jahmyr Gibbs. The Georgia product has a compact build and is lightning quick. He is “committed to,” but not signed with, Georgia Tech, and other players at the All-American Bowl certainly didn’t think he’ll be a Yellow Jacket. His burst reminds me a bit of Dalvin Cook’s. Ohio State, Florida, and LSU are in the mix, to name a few.

Yeah - I know today they release the Top 100 and other rankings throughout the week so I wonder if the 'rating' is accurate. I'm sure it is.
Probably so because the guy above him is a 6.0 and the guy below him is a 5.9. So he's the highest rated 5.9.

If butthurt options were still a thing on this board, I’d be loading up right now. BUY EVERY LAST ONE. No matter the price.

The meltdown when this kid goes elsewhere is gonna be epic.

His Jan 31 visit will seal it. Honestly, it's probably already sealed.
