Garrett Gilbert is More Than Ready to Take Over.


During last season's National Title Game, you could probably hear fans moaning and crying when their Heisman Trophy Candidate quarterback Colt McCoy, but what they didn't know was that Garrett Gilbert was more than ready to handle the situation and they also got a glimpse at the future. He threw two touchdowns and four interceptions, but many analysts said that he played much better than his stats indicate. Gilbert was groomed for this moment. He sparked a comeback for the Longhorns as he led them on a scoring drive to bring the score to 21-24, but Alabama went on to win the game. He was the 2008 Gatorade Player of the Year and is regarded as the most talented quarterback of his class. He's the son of former NFL quarterback Gale Gilbert. Former college head coach Jackie Sherill said that Gilbert is the best high school quarterback prospect since Dan Marino. Don't worry Longhorn fans. Just the hand the keys over to Gilbert because he'll take you places.
