Dang confetti in this room. I didn’t know any of this. Really excited for him and thankful men like Dabo exist to offer guidance and leadership to him during his college career.
Go Tigers!

What a great story. Great to see that it’s not about the NIL money. It’s about God plan for making him the best man that he can be on and off the field. I love the fact that Dabo runs his football program like this. Cannot wait to see him in a Tiger uniform.

Gideon literally means "one who cuts down” . . . Biblically, it means “Great Warrior” . . . Leading the few he had (300) into a huge Victory though greatly outnumbered.
I am more than excited to see this young Tiger Play and Live His Life!!!
Welcome to you and your family Gideon!!!

Me too.
Thoughtful and articulate.
Gracious and humble.
This is the kind of guy that you’d want your daughter to date and for your son to have as a friend.
Wow!

That is a wonderful story regardless of whether he ever scores a single touchdown for us and once again shows everyone that college athletics is not about NIL and football is alive and well.

Great news, glad it became clear that Clemson was the ONE. Cool, that he committed on the spot with his parents in the room.

continue in any of the traditions….fashion, shape or form as we have come to love it……it will take young men like Master Gideon to continue to follow their beliefs….their hearts ….their convictions. Regardless of where the easy and big dollar signs $$$ are steering them. This young man clearly understands what “All In” and “Paw Journey” are all about. He is surely blessed with a loving family and a mentoring structure in place that will always have his best interest at heart and will continue to praise God and to him give all the glory. Welcome to Tiger Town Master Gideon. Go Tigers!!!🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

Lots of credit to his parents as well.
It just shows what can develop from a strong family raising their kids with love and care.
I can hardly wait to see this young man playing for Clemson.
NIL not a factor??? AMAZING!! This guy is a RARE FIND, and he is playing for Clemson.
Maybe, just maybe, there is still a sliver of honor and integrity left in the college game after all.
