The Latest in Gavin Wimsatt’s Recruitment

The recruiting process is heating up for the most sought after quarterbacks from the state of Kentucky in decades.

Owensboro quarterback Gavin Wimsatt concluded his junior season in December with a 17-7 loss to Bowling Green at Kroger Field in the 5A State Championship Game. The Purples’ defense kept Wimsatt contained, accounting for only 279 yards passing and a score.

Now entering his final season of high school football, it’s time for the nation’s No. 2 dual-threat quarterback to begin to narrow his choices. Relatively quiet about his recruitment, Wimsatt has risen through the ranks without attending various camps across the country.
