Having signed with the Seminoles as part of the 2018 signing class, Gainer redshirted that season, earning his first start against NC State in 2019. He’s seen two different coaching staffs, three different defenses and despite that, he’s been a player who has flashed consistently while not truly finding his spot on the field — the fact that he led the team in tackles in 2020 and still has room to grow is a testament to the potential he possesses.
