During Saturday's inter-squad scrimmage, Gash showcased his versatility. He added kick and punt return duties, expanding his usual roles as wide receiver and cornerback. His older brother, Samson, now playing for Michigan State, previously handled those special teams duties last season. This new workload only seems to fuel Gash, who reportedly relishes the "target on his back" that comes with being a high-profile recruit.
For local fans eagerly tracking future Red Raiders, Gash's public stance introduces a layer of suspense, signaling the coaching staff still needs to work to solidify his commitment.
