Coaches Comments: “I am sure that Gaige will continue to do what he has done. Some of these guys have been so good, but you just hope they can find a way to even elevate their game to a higher level. As a four-year starter he has been outstanding. All the recruiters that ask about him, I make sure to illustrate to the them that he has been the guy that has made the play when we needed it during the second half of games over the past few years. These guys don’t play many games into the second half, but he has proven to be relentless and has that can’t-lose attitude and determination.”
