A former Ohio State commit, the blue-chipper had been committed to the Buckeyes since July 2022 before decommitting a year later.

Gilbert is the nation’s No. 104 overall prospect, No. 11 safety and No. 14 recruit from Georgia in the 2025 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Going forward, Gilbert has official visits set up to UCF (May 31), South Carolina (June 7) and USC (June 21).

The 6-foot-1, 180-pound Gilbert visited Auburn on Tuesday.

“It went great, one of the best visits I’ve been on so far,” Gilbert told Auburn Live. “It’s just different. I’ve visited Georgia, Alabama, all that stuff, but it’s just different at Auburn.”

He also praised Tigers safeties coach Charles Kelly.

“I like him,” Gilbert said. “He was the d-coordinator at Alabama for a few years and then d-coordinator at Colorado for Coach Prime as well, he has a great resume. He used to coach Jalen Ramsey, all the folks he put in the league. It’s good.”

Louisville Class Breakdown

Three prospects are currently committed to Louisville’s 2025 class. Oxford (Ala.) three-star quarterback Mason Mims headlines the class and committed on November 24. He’s joined by Goshen (Ky.) North Oldham three-star offensive tackle Gradey Anthony and Westerville (Ohio) North three-star interior offensive lineman Jake Cook.

“I have a lot of twitch, so I’m able to get after guys, pull, and get open in space,” Cook told KSR in January of his playing style. “Obviously, playing nasty. That’s the one thing the coaches love. Playing nasty, finishing guys, playing through the whistle, blocking guys 10 to 15 yards down the field.”

Moving forward, Cook is looking to improve his pass protection. “I can always get better at pass pro and run blocking,” he said.

Last season, Cook’s high school team ran the triple-option, which was different for him. At the college level, Cook said he’s ready for anything.

“I’m good with the triple-option, inside-zone, outside-zone,” he said. “I’m great with all of that and I’m open to any offense. I just want to play some football.”
