Gibbs had been a pillar of the North Jersey football coaching community with a reputation and résumé that is hard to match. He had been the Green Raiders coach since 2001 and led them to seven sectional titles. He had connections nationwide, and among his alumni are former NFL star wide receiver Chris Hogan.
The Green Raiders, currently 10-1, are slated to play Northern Highlands in the North 1, Group 4 final Friday night. The status of that game is in limbo.
