is another running back who impressed as a freshman, leading his team in rushing with 126 carries for 869 yards and nine touchdowns in 11 games. Gibson is a very shifty ball carrier who has shown the ability to use quick jump cuts in the open field to make defenders miss with ease. He has also shown the burst of speed to break away on long runs once he hits the second level. Kaiden also caught eight passes for 92 yards and a freshman, and made an impact on defense, finishing the year with 46 tackles and one tackle for loss. Gibson doesn’t currently hold any offers but he should be a player to continue to keep an eye on over the next few years.

, a running back at Perry County Central Middle School. Gibson makes a difference due to his electric speed off the snap as well as his efficiency in the pocket. I also like how Gibson can use his footwork to maneuver the pocket and breach into enemy territory from along the edge. Gibson also proved his ability to break tackles on his way to the house.

took home the honor in Region 4. At this point, he’s not going to win any contests for size but his ability speaks for itself on film. An Honorable Mention Regional Player Of The Year nod a year ago as a seventh-grader, he tore up the turf in every game during this eighth-grade season. Running behind a solid offensive line, Gibson used his speed and darting running style to get beyond the line of scrimmage before the time the defense even reacted to the snap. Also a point guard on the hardwood, you can see the same quickness and explosion on the football field. Again, not the biggest kid in the world, but he’s also significantly tougher than one would think by simply just looking at his stature. Gibson is not afraid to throw a stiff-arm into the grill of a would-be tackler. He’ll be one to watch develop as the size comes on.
