Any information on how he liked UNT?

Also, from his stats on 24/7 he is a tackling machine

Great video. Hope we offered as S/DB and he understands his chances at playing early.

Yeah, those numbers will probably rise this year in the new scheme he's playing in. We offered as Safety.

Picked up an offer from Illinois tonite, with other offers from MidWest State

And ULM

THIS GUY is a prime example of a guy I'd love to have even though 24/7 lists him as a "2*".
...because several other FBS-level coaches have seen him and wanted him to play for them. Rating-be-damned, this guy is a baller. If UNT could only haul in a class full of "2*" guys, but they all had offers like Gibbs, we're going to be just fine.

@GMG24, keep up the good work with Mr. Gibbs.

lol I am working. I want him to go wherever he feels best but I have been putting UNT in his ear. He was on campus today for an unofficial. I haven't asked how it went because I am not sure when he will be done.

Love his comments about the campus and program. GMG24, if we don't lock him up then you are dead to me! :)

BTG_Fan1 · June 24, 2017

With him being a safety, just have him watch McClains highlight tape from the first Army Game and he will see what Reff can do with his safety's.

Doesn't hurt that McClain was 1st team D either.

Can I please ask you do one.

If he elects to go to UNT or some place else. Could he please say what were the good/bad things about the way he was recruited by UNT. If it's simple things from more edits to more interaction, or even more better access, whatever.

I have no idea how often/if at all the coaches get any type of input into why a recruit picks or passes over UNT. But Jaxson is a kid that will see a lot of different things out there and it could help UNT in the future. (Hopefully my late night rambling makes sense)

That's what I was fearing.

New Unis and IPF need to be announced ASAP

Ahhh thank you, hoping the pick UI commit may make us a bit more attractive

Need UNT twitter users to shower him with love. Illinois has been after him hard and heavy, obviously playing in the Big 10 is a big deal, and they have some crazy facilities to boot. We need to hit him hard about staying home, changing the culture, and being close enough to his family they could watch him play every Saturday. I am working hard, but I have to be unbiased and send my kid where he sees as the best opportunity for him. Believe me I am selling the good things about UNT, and he loved his visit to UNT and the vision for changing the culture that the staff talked to him about. Here is to hoping for the best!
