Duncan defensive tackle Gabe McGee has made a verbal commitment to Tulsa University.
McGee, a preseason All-State selection, spent a couple of weeks weighing the pros and cons of suiting up for the Golden Hurricane before accepting a scholarship offer via telephone.
McGee also considered Kansas State, Colorado State and Baylor before settling on Tulsa, an annual contender for the Conference USA championship.
The Golden Hurricane has strong ties to the Duncan area. Former Duncan quarterback Trent Wilkins and former Comanche offensive lineman Jody Whaley both suit up for Tulsa, and Marlow native Keith Patterson is the defensive coordinator for the team.
Duncan defensive line coach Tim Buben says that at 310 pounds, McGee is explosive off of the ball and an ultra-competitor.
