Default Vibration in 5th

I am getting this weird vibration/rubbing in 5th right around 55 or so. when i hold the shifter i dont feel any physical rubbing or hitting on the shifter. When i press the clutch it does go away.

Could be bad bearings, but I'd think you'd hear the whining if that were the case.
