Gilyard is a 5-foot-11, 218-pound four-star prospect from a part of Florida the Cats have recruited frequently under Mark Stoops, though not with as much success as they have found in Central Florida and, more recently, South Florida.

In no particular order Gilyard's six favorites are Kentucky, Maryland, NC State, Michigan, UCF and Virginia Tech.

Michigan has been a mainstay in Gilyard's recruitment for the better part of the last year.
