Ware County Tackling Machine Turned HBCU Safety Standout
DeMarco Gibson, a 6'0", 200-lb safety from Ware County High (GA), dominated HS ball with 42 total tackles, 30 solo, 2 INTs, and 6 PDs in 2018-19 (3.5 tackles/game, above nat'l avg), exploding to 70 tackles and 4 INTs as a senior before joining Alabama A&M in 2021. His ball-hawking instincts and physicality in the secondary make him a reliable coverage defender with turnover upside—perfect fit for teams needing gritty, high-motor safeties who elevate back-seven intensity without injury red flags.
