Fall 2021: An injury cut Gilmore's season short as he played in the first three games of the campaign, recording 12 total tackles -- including a season-high six against Furman ... also returned five kicks for 86 yards and two punts for 19 yards.

Starting in all seven games for Tech in the spring campaign, he finished sixth on the team in total tackles with 29 -- 14 solo and 15 assisted -- while also collecting a tackle-for-loss, an interception and four pass breakups. He also showed some moves on the return game, taking a punt back 39 yards for a touchdown against Murray State (3/14/21) ... recorded a career-high seven tackles twice in the Murray State game and at Southeast Missouri (3/28/21) ... earned a spot on the OVC All-Newcomer team.

HIGH SCHOOL: A versatile athlete who played multiple roles, Gilmore joins the Golden Eagles after a season with 43 total tackles, three interceptions – including one for a touchdown, while also rushing for 610 yards and 13 scores and catching 18 passes for 340 yards and four more TDs. He ended his prep career with 31 total touchdowns and a school-record 21 interceptions. Gilmore was named second-team all-state for Class 5A, while also garnering first-team all-district, all-region and all-Marion County honors. He also recently won Florida's Scot Brantley Award.

Golden Eagles top Texas A&M-Commerce in last-second rally

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – It was a wild finish at Tucker Stadium on Saturday night as the Tennessee Tech football team scored 20 points in the fourth quarter and overcame a 19-6 deficit to take a 26-25 victory over Texas A&M-Commerce. Turnovers stalled the Golden Eagle offense in the first half as Tech saw passes picked off in two of its first three drives, then two lost fumbles deep in the Golden Eagles’ territory led to quick, short-field scores as Eric Rodriguez threw two touchdown passes, completing a 37-yard strike to Andrew Armstrong and a 20-yard scoring pass to B.J. Busbee. After missing the first PAT, Emmanuel Adagbon hit the second to put the Lions up 13-0  with 13:18 remaining in the first half.
