steady, durable VMI guard with a veteran’s edge
Garrett Gilkeson has long been valued at VMI for toughness, leadership, and reliability; the program has described him as “extremely durable” and noted that he started 94-plus games over his final three seasons while ranking among the team’s statistical leaders. In the 2020 season, he was a real shot-maker from deep and at the line, and his game profile points to a guard who competes hard, helps organize the offense, and brings veteran steadiness rather than flashy volume. If you want a dependable, competitive backcourt piece, he’s the kind that coaches tend to trust.
