He is excellent inside the pocket, the way he delivers the football. He also does a nice job when the play breaks down, and he scrambles around to make plays with his feet.  I have been surprised that he has not been getting much buzz on the recruiting circuit, but he finally received an offer from Kent State. This is well deserved, and I expect his recruitment should pick up soon.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AGTG?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#AGTG</a> Blessed to receive an offer from Kent State <a href="https://twitter.com/coachmacarney?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coachmacarney</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/GoFlashes?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#GoFlashes</a>⚡️<a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_LeDonne?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_LeDonne</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/csiegle?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@csiegle</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_Bez?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_Bez</a> <a href="https://t.co/2OiTHNtro6">pic.twitter.com/2OiTHNtro6</a></p>&mdash; Aaron &quot;oobi&quot; Strader Jr (@KingOobi) <a href="https://twitter.com/KingOobi/status/1928873592873255353?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 31, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["952749"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-683c5078d65aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gio Guerriere is a good running back and athlete who has excellent film.
