Are you thinking of gnus-auto-select-subject?

  Documentation:
  *Says what subject to place under point when entering a group.
  
  This variable can either be the symbols `first' (place point on the
  first subject), `unread' (place point on the subject line of the first
  unread article), `best' (place point on the subject line of the
  higest-scored article), `unseen' (place point on the subject line of
  the first unseen article), 'unseen-or-unread' (place point on the subject
  line of the first unseen article or, if all article have been seen, on the
  subject line of the first unread article), or a function to be called to
  place point on some subject line.
