Shelton Gibson (Declaring for 2017 NFL Draft)

[stowfan]

Not sure about the level of competition, but he's special with the ball in his hands.

Same league as Shaker Heights, decent comp, but not the best in NE Ohio.
Oddly, he didn't even make all state special mention.

Rivals100 WR Shelton Gibson tells me he will make his #OhioState official visit the weekend of Jan. 11th, story coming.... #buckeyes

Interesting....I know Wade said that it doesn't apply to all recruits, but Gibson can't be a "plan B" type of player or maybe he just can't make it on the 7th?

Might be so they have a better idea of his grades...I have always got the impression that if the grades are in order he is a Buckeye. If you think about it, we are by far on top and yet he hasn't committed and is basically only visiting OSU...there is a holdup somewhere and talent isn't it.

Rivals$--Visits on deck for Gibson

Shelton is heading to WVU this weekend and will likely visit NCSU and Louisville before his official to tOSU in January.

He might be the exception. If he gets it done in the classroom, I don't see him signing anywhere other than OSU.

Rivals - Gibson Knows Army Bowl a Showcase

11/29

Excited about showing off his skills at the event. Looks at it as a business trip. Also addresses becoming a man, becoming more loyal over the past two years.

Anyone with premium care to summarize for us? Interested in whether or not the word "shuffles" means what it sounds like...thanks.

Kind of a misleading title. Ohio State still leads, but after a great trip to West Virginia and a constructive in-home visit by that school, West Virginia is now firmly in front of Louisville, NC State, and Oregon.

Shaker Heights is not in the Lake Erie League anymore. The LEL is comprised of C. Heights, Warren G. Harding, Bedford, Lorain, Euclid, Maple Heights, and Warrensville Heights. No, not the best in NE Ohio, but pretty solid.

That said, Gibson is legit. Nice size, fast as lightning, & very dangerous with the ball in his hand. He'd be a nice asset as a Buckeye.

Scout$--Four-Star Loves WVU Visit

From The Bank...Shelton loved WVU and plans to also visit NCSU, tOSU, and possibly Oregon before announcing on NLOID.

I think we will know when the academic issues are resolved when the thread title changes.
