Sping Game Report: Booker T. Washington VS. Monsignor Pace

May 22, 2009

Jabari Gorman (pictured) 2011 S 5′10″ 170 Monsignor Pace:
Gorman flat out makes plays all over the field. He put his stamp on the game early coming away with an interception the first play of the game. It didn?t end there delivering a pair of big time hits on receivers coming over the middle. Gorman also made a few plays on offense as a receiver on screens. Look for Gorman to get his fair share of offers next season.

Jabari Gorman (Pace, Fla.) also impressed in coverage. The 5-foot-9 ?, 164-pound Gorman posted a 4.44 pro agility shuttle and the quickness and change of direction carried over to one-on-one drills.

Audio Interview from Combine

Seems very interested in Miami-Florida. The interviewer partly led him down the path, but he spoke on UM for a good 4 minutes.

Scout $ - Gorman Adds Buckeyes To Impressive List

Florida & FSU are supposed to be offering soon too... Gorman is aware of the Buckeye DB tradition & the ex-players that have made it to the league... He's hoping to make it up for a visit by the end of summer, depending on finances... He's torn over the role distance from home will play in his decision... No leader, no time table...

Gorman is encouraged by the OSU offer & is happy that another door has opened... The OSU coaches have been talking to him & feel he could contribute early to the program... The history OSU has with sending DBs to the NFL is what catches his attention the most... Miami has offered as well & that means a lot to Canes fans like himself... No leader, no time table...

...
Jabari Gorman (Miami/Monsignor Pace): Gorman is quickly becoming of the most heavily recruited prospects in South Florida, with offers from Ole Miss, Tennessee, Miami, Wake Forest and LSU along with interest from Alabama. The 5-9, 164-pound Gorman showed his quickness and ability to change direction at a recent Under Armour combine with times of 4.44 in the pro agility shuttle and 7.28 in the L-cone. He also posted a 32?-inch vertical, which translated into good coverage at a Feb. 20 7-on-7 workout at Flamingo Park.

Scout $ - 2011 Prospect: Monsignor Pace DB
Mike Bakas of SuperPrep.com, Mar 7, 2010

Gorman doesn't list a top 5 & his childhood favorite was Miami-FL... A good relationship with the coaching staff & feeling comfortable will be his top factors... Has excelled on both sides of the ball as well as at safety & CB...

Neal McCready of RebelSports.net, March 9, 2010

The gravity of making the right choice is starting to weigh on Gorman a bit... Ole Miss is ratcheting up their efforts & telling him he could see time on both sides of the ball... He's an excellent student with a 3.7 GPA & has no problem moving out of state to get the right fit... Plans camp stops at 'Bama, OSU, & Miami with some other possibles like Ole Miss...

Yancy Porter of SuperPrep.com, Mar 10, 2010

Is the most comfortable at FS (where he's played the most)... Says he's talking to most schools via email accept for OSU, 'Bama, Miami, Oklahoma, & Ole Miss... He's staying in regular phone contact with those 5... Has a good relationship started with Coach Haynes & likes OSU's history of DBs going to the NFL... Lists some things he likes about each school... No leader, no time table...
