It is. He's definitely a lot smaller than the other guys. 5'11" is about right.
Here is another shot of him from the same day.

I think Gilmore is going to be a great addition to the program. Think he'll be a really good DT and a "good clubhouse guy" too. Seems like he'd be a fun guy to play with but he also seems like the kind of guy that would keep teammates accountable. He does a little talking. You can't keep doing that without eventually having to back it up. If he's backing his talking up, he'll expect others to do the same.

Looks like a fullback all the way to me. And he should be a great one with his agility and size. Nice replacement for JC when he leaves.

Gilmore a fullback?? Dude has talent and a great mindset. He is gonna be a beast and go around the same spot or higher than Brockers in the NFL draft a few years down the line

We did not recruit Neal to play FB that is ridiculous. Neal may not be 6'2" but damn people put so much emphasis on height and weight and miss what they do on the field. Drew Brees, Russell Wilson, Lamar Woodley and another guy that slips my mind all are undersized for their positions and look how they turned out.

I believe GG will see playing time next season as a true Frosh, and that he'll be starting by the time he is a Soph. He is a real talent. Neal is a DE all the way, imo.

I agree Shea, 5'11" def looks closer to it rather than 6'1" as all of his bios have stated

I hope you are right, can't wait to see him in the AA bowl, will know more then. Tough to tell in the Shrine bowl, as was doubled most of the time, and really didn't do much.

Much closer to 5-11 than 6-1. I have him at a shade under 6-0 after this past week.
