Will start at wide receiver again in 2015 after playing in all 12 games in 2014 with nine starts. Has the ability to be one of the most dynamic, big-play wide receivers in the Southland Conference as a senior. He’s already earned pre-season all-America accolades from USA College Football and is a first team pre-season all-Southland Conference selection.

2014 (Junior): One of the top playmakers in the Southland Conference, he finished second in the league (and 20th in the country at the FCS level) in yards per catch (17.6 ypc). Gilbert finished the season with 38 catches for 667 yards and seven touchdowns. The seven touchdowns ended up tied for third-most in the league as Gilbert earned second team all-Southland Conference honors. Gilbert did not post a 100-yard receiving game during the season, but he did have two games with at least 90 receiving yards and two others with at least 70 yards. He caught touchdown passes against Georgia State (60 yards), Northern Arizona (39 yards), Troy (63 yards), Incarnate Word (70 yards) and Lamar (38 yards), and two against Houston Baptist.

2013 (Junior): Spent the 2013 season as a redshirt and will have two seasons to play for ACU. Passed on offers from Louisiana Tech, Louisiana-Lafayette and North Texas to sign with ACU.

2011-12 (Cisco Junior College): As a freshman in 2011 at Cisco, Gilbert caught 36 passes for 658 yards and six touchdowns.  He had his biggest game of his freshman season against eventual conference champion Navarro College when he caught 12 passes for 228 yards and three touchdowns.  As a soph in 2012, he caught 27 passes for 278 yards and two touchdowns in only eight games.

High school: Aside from being a top football recruit out of Lancaster High School, Gilbert was also part of Lancaster’s dominating Class 4A track and field teams.  As a senior in 2011, he ran on the Tigers’ state championship teams in both the 4x100 and 4x400 relays, and as a junior anchored the 4x400 relay team to the state title.
