Why are people saying he is a dual threat QB? It says he is a pro-style.

He was ranked as the No. 32 pro-style quarterback in the country by 247Sports, but his running ability blossomed into more of a weapon, changing his evaluation from pro to dual threat at the quarterback position once he entered the transfer portal just one week ago.

I think we unfortunately know the answer to that...

If he keeps progressing, he is special,” former Kentucky defensive back Van Hiles told Vaught’s Views in Kentucky. “He is left-handed and has a great arm. He is Terry Wilson almost. He has great straight line speed. He played in a spread offense on a really good team in high school that won the state championship his senior year.”

He also had multiple 50+ yard TD runs in his highlights. In the state championship game his senior year he ran the ball 23 times against 17 pass attempts. Also, Rivals classified him as a dual threat.

Gilmore preserved his redshirt after appearing in only one game for the Wildcats last season. It was Gilmore who handed the ball to running back Tyler Markray for a 45-yard touchdown that broke UK’s single-game rushing record in its 50-7 win over Tennessee Martin.

Tommy Mainord, UK’s wide receivers coach during Mark Stoops’ first three years in charge, is the associate head coach and co-offensive coordinator at North Texas. Alexandria native Luke Walerius, a former graduate and recruiting assistant under Stoops in 2016 and 2017, is chief of staff for the Mean Green.  Former Frederick Douglass High School star Dayton LeBlanc is a sophomore defensive lineman at North Texas.
