“My daily messages from at least three schools clearly demonstrate my value,” disclosed an eager 4-star running back to Rivals. His offer list now stands at 48 schools demonstrating fierce competition for his commitment. Kell High School (Georgia) running back for class of 2027 at Kell has caught Michigan’s eye as top programs try and secure his signature; such widespread attention attests to both talent and potential of this runner.
Quinterrius “Moonie” Gipson stands 5’8″, weighs 205 pounds, and offers both size and speed to programs like Arkansas, Oklahoma, Clemson and Michigan – among many others. Due to this sudden surge of interest from programs across the board he changed phones multiple times before changing back his original number after Auburn made their initial offer back in November 2023 – since which three programs have emerged as front runners within his estimation as potential college choices for his recruitment process.
“There are three schools that stand out due to their persistent communication and recruitment efforts. I have a strong liking for these institutions,” Gipson mentioned to Chad Simmons. These schools include Michigan, Alabama, and Tennessee, with Michigan facing stiff competition but still firmly in the race thanks to an intensified recruitment strategy from its coaching staff.
Alabama, where Gipson grew up cheering for, alongside Tennessee with its nurturing relationship, and Michigan’s focus on development and family atmosphere under Coach Tony Alford, have all made significant impressions on him. Gipson seeks a program that can offer a familial environment, cultural fit, and personal development both on and off the field—an attribute each of these schools provides in unique ways.
The Battle for Quinterrius Gipson’s Commitment Heats Up
Gipson is deliberate in his college selection process, emphasizing the importance of feeling at home, personal growth, and strong relationships. Michigan’s effort, spearheaded by Coach Alford, who has been particularly active in engaging Gipson, has placed the Wolverines on high alert with Alabama and others due to their comprehensive approach to recruitment.
Gipson highlighted Coach Alford’s genuine care and emphasis on development during interactions, reflecting his aspirations of finding an enriching college environment. Michigan demonstrated their dedication not just in developing athletes, but in nurturing individuals – which aligned closely with Gipson’s personal aspirations of becoming successful individuals in college sports.
Gipson remains undeterred by official visits scheduled to notable games like Clemson vs LSU and Georgia vs Tennessee; instead taking his time and selecting programs which fit him perfectly over simply selecting names with prestige. His focus remains firmly placed on finding his ideal fit rather than selecting just any program out of fear of missing out.
