Welcome aboard Zack Gilbert!

[UPitt '89]

Great pick up. A 4-star DE is just what the doctor ordered.

.....now lets get Hudson and Hamlin in the defensive backfield.


H2P!

 

[Pittnerski]

Is this the mystery recruit from earlier this week?

 

[pittpitt]

Build the lines and add explosive athletes behind both!

 

[VAPITTALUM]

Great news! Speed and massive power off the edge.

Yes, a good 3 star pickup. Only 6' tall, but should be good for leverage

 

[Piranha]

Welcome!

Probably doesnt mean much but Hudson was on the field during pregame talking and slapping hands with coaches including Conklin. I realize this is somewhat customary on a recruiting visit but he was the only recruit ON the field. The others were on the sideline. There was evena female manager or trainer who came over to him and gave him a hug. It was my sense that these were congratulatory in nature and that he was the mystery recruit but that appears to be Gilbert. In any event, Hudson did seem to have a good rapport with everybody.

I also walked right past Lamont Wade. He honestly looks like he's 28. Physically mature.

Here's Gilbert's offer list:

Boston College
Cal
Duke
Florida
Kansas State
North Carolina
Tennessee
Vanderbilt
Virginia Tech
Wake Forest
West Virginia

6 ACC teams, 1 Pac-12 team, 3 SEC teams, and 2 Big 12 teams.

The only P5 conference he DIDN'T have an offer from is the B1G.

This is a BIG-TIME player.... explosive DE that is going to be a beast for us. If Rivals wants to call him a 3-star, they're making a mistake.

That's fine, but you just can't call a kid a 4 star because that's what you feel like. He might turn out to be a 5 star, but as of now, he is listed as a 3 star.

Why not? That's how these recruiting service rank players. It's the opinion of some recruitnik, whose credentials are no better than yours or mine.

The offer from Florida shows me some hope. The other schools are meh.
