So just what should be the expectations for the Gibbens transfer? He definitely comes at a seeming position of need, or at least need for experience. Obviously the previous level of competition has to be considered but I'm reasonably hopeful, for a handful of reasons;
He'll be an older and experienced player in that position group
He's play a whole lot of football, 4-yr starter
His academic standing sure leads you to believe that he's got the head to play the position and pick up a new system.
It sounds like he'll be here for spring ball, and hopefully they HAVE a somewhat typical spring ball, so that will make a big difference in how easily he picks things up as well.
I'm keeping expectations tempered but I think he'll be a really solid player; at the very least he's going to add some depth to the position and depth with a ton of experience.
