Gibson announces his top three coming off a late July visit to Georgia.
The Trussville, Alabama native ranks as a high three-star and the No. 494 player in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings. Gibson ranks as the 48th best corner in the 2023 recruiting cycle and the 24th best player in Alabama — a state loaded with talent in the 2023 cycle.
Gibson has been a frequent visitor to Knoxville over the least few months, taking a pair of spring unofficial visits and a June official visit to Tennessee.
The 6-foot, 171 pound corner took a pair of unofficial visits to Georgia in June on top of his visit last week.
