Another note on Queen, he is playing in the Cam Newton 7-on-7 Tourney on Saturday afternoon/evening and Sunday.

So he won't be in AU for very long. Still glad that he can make it to recruit for a few hours anyway.

Most of BCW is done by mid afternoon anyway

Gibson named Auburn as a co-leader with Tennessee, whatever that means.

AU & UT Co-lead for Gibson Free read

Some snipits

1. Tennessee - “I talk to coach Butch Jones a lot. I talk to the wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni a lot. I’d like to talk to the quarterbacks coach Mike Bajaklan more so I know his plan. I do enjoy talking to coach Zach. They have a great school and campus. They play in a great conference that I like.”

1. Auburn - “I spend a lot of time talking to (quarterbacks) coach Rhett Lashlee and have gotten a feel for him. I’m comfortable with him. His offense does work. They made a beast out of Cam Newton. They have a great class coming in this year. They made it to the BCS title game last year. They have a plan and its working.”

5. Ohio State - “It’s just the staff and (Buckeyes head coach) Urban Meyer is a great coach. They have a great offensive coordinator (Tom Herman). Braxton Miller is leaving after this year and they are looking for someone to fill his spot. Even though they took a four-star quarterback (Joe Burrow) that doesn’t change my opinion of them. The Buckeyes are still a great program. I’ll visit them for the first time in the fall for an official visit. I talk to (Director of Player Personnel) Mark Pantoni and Urban on Twitter. I haven’t talked to coach Herman in a while. That’s probably why they are No. 5 for me.”

The nation’s No. 14 overall prospect regardless of position will visit Auburn this for ‘Big Cat’ weekend, starting Friday.

“I’m going with my teammates Tarvarus McFadden and Dredrick Snelson,” Gibson said. “I’m looking forward to talking to the coaches again and getting a feel again for the campus and having fun.”

In June, Gibsonn will head to Tennessee for its quarterback camp, which will feature Jon Gruden. He’ll also be at The Opening in Beaverton, Ore., in July.

Gibson’s plan remains to take all of his official visits in the fall before making his decision.

“I’ll probably make my commit a week or two after my season is done,” Gibson said.

Which offensive schemes among his finalists does he feel best fit his skill set?

“Tennessee, Ohio State and Auburn,” he said.

FWIW KK made a great point yesterday I think it was, that if TG waits that long he will probably end up at UT because AU likely will not have a spot for him at QB. Deondre Francios and Kai are very much in play for AU and both plan to commit by July. Kai has AU and FSU in his top 2. Of DF's top 6 he is not an option anymore for tOSU and Oregon. Florida is pushing for Cali QB Sheriron Jones. That would leave AU, FSU, and UT. I expect whoever commits first to pick FSU and AU can easily get the other. FWIW I like Kai and Deondre both better as QB prospects than TG.

JW is likely not a real option.

I'm definitely cool with that.

Markell Boston, Tre Williams, Racean Thomas, Kamryn Pettway and Stephen Roberts.

Why not?

Pettway going to make a nice Hback
