Inside Gideon Gash’s recruitment: Brother factor, visits planned, timeframe for a decision

Yahoo Sports

Detroit Catholic Central (Mich. ) athlete Gideon Gash was the headliner at last weekend’s Adidas Polynesian Bowl Combine and he exceeded expectations. Gash is a great looking prospect and is rated the No.

97 player i n the Rivals Industry Ranking, an equally weighted average that utilizes all three major recruiting services and the No. 3 athlete in the county. He’s even higher in the Rivals 300 and checks in as the No.

64 prospect nationally and after what we saw last weekend, he should continue to trend up. Gash has rare athletic traits in terms of size and speed. He measured in at 6-4, 206 pounds, broke the Poly combine record with a 4.

35 time in the 40, had a camp best 120” broad jump plus a solid 4. 47 shuttle. He earned a well deserved invite to the ’27 Polynesian Bowl following the camp.

Gash worked out at corner both days and shows the ability to play four or even five positions in college. He’s good enough to play receiver or even grow in to a tight end on offense and can play corner, safety or grow in to an off-ball linebacker on defense. A lot will depend on how much weight he naturally puts on as he physically matures.
