Top Nation's Receiver Joins North Crowley, Sparking a Surge in Recruiting Interest

-

One of North Crowley’s major hurdles heading into the 2025 football season would be finding replacements. All-American wide receiver Quentin Gibson, who is associated with Under Armour, , the MaxPreps National Player of the Year.

But after securing the title for Class 6A Division I state championships In North Crowley, they've brought aboard an exceptional wide receiver from the top tier of the Class of 2028. This addition is causing his stock to rise sharply among college recruiters.

After Damarion Mays caught 68 passes for 1,640 yards and scored 14 touchdowns during his freshmen year, earning him recognition, he transferred from Life Oak Cliff to North Crowley. MaxPreps Freshman All-America Second Team Mays (6-3, 184) has received over two dozen collegiate offers so far, which include institutions such as Georgia, Arizona State, Miami, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Ole Miss, SMU, TCU, Tennessee, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech.

Almost all of Mays' proposals have been received since early January. According to his latest posts on X (previously known as Twitter), the newest offers came from Tennessee, Oklahoma State, and OU.

Gibson, a Colorado signee, experienced one of the most remarkable seasons in state history Last year, as he led North Crowley to a perfect 16-0 record and their first state championship since 2003, he achieved an impressive feat with 93 receptions totaling 2,009 yards and scoring 36 touchdowns. This performance allowed him to break the Dallas-area record for touchdown catches in one season, placing his total at fourth highest statewide historically.

Gibson surpassed star NFL wide receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba, CeeDee Lamb, Marvin Mims and Garrett Wilson on the single-season state touchdown list. Gibson also had the 10th-most receiving yards in a season in state history, according to the website Texas High School Football History.

Despite finishing third in the MaxPreps national rankings, North Crowley must now rebuild after losing some crucial members of their high-scoring team. The squad managed to rack up 864 points over the course of the season—the highest point total ever recorded for a single year within the Dallas area and among the top scores statewide at number sixteen. Departing stars include All-American QB Chris Jimerson Jr., O-line standout Henry Fenuku, and dynamic RB Cornelius Warren III; however, North Crowley still has hopes riding on returning players. five-star attacking lineman John Turntine III , ranked as the third-most promising recruit in Texas for the Class of 2026.

Didn't you catch wind of it? For only $105,000, you can purchase citizenship to a tropical island paradise these days. The island country of Nauru located in the Pacific is offering passports to foreign nationals for $105,000 (£81,000) as part of an effort to generate funding for its climate emergency reserve. Soaring sea levels are swiftly eroding Nauru’s coastlines. In reaction, the nation’s leadership is considering a large-scale move inland; however, they are facing difficulties in securing funding for this initiative. Approximately ninety percent of the island's inhabitants will likely have to relocate to elevated areas due to sea levels surrounding Nauru increasing at a rate one point five times quicker than the worldwide average. Many nations provide citizenship in return for significant financial investments or property purchases. However, certain options may stand out specifically to wealthy Britons looking for opportunities. In fact, several stunning t...

Australian Grand Prix Fences Go Black for Clever Reason

The 2025 Australian Grand Prix introduces several modifications to the circuit, primarily focusing on Turn 6 where Mercedes' George Russell had a crash in the previous year. However, the track authorities have implemented an additional alteration. The fencing along the Melbourne street race course has been painted black, particularly in the region of the starting grid. This minor alteration significantly enhances visibility for both spectators with tickets and photographers, despite its subtle nature. The cause stems from how light reflects off the metal. Black paint helps with this by absorbing the light, thus making it simpler to maintain visibility. Formula One tracks have consistently needed to address the visibility and safety of spectators holding tickets. Essential safety features include barrier walls and catch fencing, which protect not only the audience but also racers themselves. Take, for instance, Zhou Guanyu’s accident at Silverstone in 2023; without the p...
