It was about this time during NF Rs So year that he started showing glimpses. Gabe is the same number of years removed from high school and he is beginning to show those same flashes of dominance. Not saying he is going to reach the same level of dominance as Nick but he is becoming a force in the middle of our defense and deserves some attention being thrown his way for dominating the interior of the Aggies OL.

He is becoming a very good asset in the middle. Players like Gabe coming into college, don't realize just how different the competition is and had some growing up to do. Good to see him bringing it.

He's bringing it. The most impressive thing I've seen on the DL though is Monty Adams drawing double teams as a true freshman. He was doubled the majority of the time he saw the field yesterday.
Gabe has made a massive improvement though

Truth. It says volumes about his ability.

Gabe has been very strong this year. Its nice to see him get better. Makes me wonder what Garner would have done with Whit..

Remember when UGa fans were excited to see him leave? They claimed he had lost it and he was the one holding their defense back.

Gabe's not terribly athletic, but he's learned how to use his hands very well, and he's smart.

He looked pretty darn quick on that spin move and he can create some push so I don't know how true this is.
Just looks like he doesn't understand how to control his body yet since he has never moved like this before this year

Its not just Gabe either. The entire DL is improved across the board. I'm not sure we have a guy that hasn't made big strides at the DT or DE.

He's just not. He's got a short neck and doesn't bend well. Like I said, he's got other plus tools that allow him to be successful.
You want to see athletic? Watch Elijah Daniel when he's in there next to Gabe.

Yeah, the whole DL has made gigantic strides, it's been very impressive. The move of Eguae inside to DL has also been a very nice move, he's played very well there.

I'm not sure what that even means

When his draft evaluations start coming out.
Look, I love Gabe and what he has become this year. But he is not going to out-athlete many guys.

Might be mistaken but I think Gabe leads the team in tackles for a loss. The freshmen DL are gonna be fun over the next few years but Gabe is bringing IT.
