I was obviously wrong about Gibson Connelly Gibson Connelly 6'6" | 220 lbs | TE Grandville | 2025 State MI last offseason. I still don’t think he’s as good as the elite Michigan TE prospects, but his upside was the main aspect that I overlooked.

So far, Gibson has highlights from two games on his hudl. In a nutshell, he’s got a handful of great blocking highlights and a couple of receptions. Still, he looks very raw in the receiving game and the Wing-T offense doesn’t give him an opportunity to execute many types of blocks.

I still stand by my evaluation of Gibson being an incredibly raw prospect. However, if he can commit to development at Grand Valley State, his upside is hypothetically as high as any. For the reason of upside, Gibson gets a much higher ranking.

Another new name to the Tight End rankings is Gibson Connelly Gibson Connelly 6'6" | 220 lbs | TE Grandville | 2025 State MI out of Grandville. I had recently watched Gibson at the MHSAA Camp in Jenison, and he confirmed what I saw on tape. Generally, Gibson is a raw prospect who has all the tools needed to develop into a GLIAC prospect. He’s tall, long, talented, and overall has excellent upside. Though, at least in the passing game, he has a lot to work on. His routes aren’t where they need to be, and he dropped a few balls as well. That’s something he’ll need to work on. He actually got a good amount of receiving opportunity despite Grandville’s Wing-T offense, so I expect similar production this season. If Gibosn can continue blocking well while taking a major step up as a receiver, colleges will come calling.
