Garror is currently ranked the 13th best EDGE in his class by 247Sports. They also rank the Vigor High star as the second-best player in Alabama and the 96th-best in the nation. The high praise is not a surprise, given the numbers he has put up starting in the 2024 campaign.
During his breakout season, Garror recorded 104 tackles, including 56 for loss. He also added 37 quarterback hits and 21.5 sacks to his resume. With the Longhorns recruiting frustrated offensive coordinators on a nightly basis, Vigor went 12-2 and reached the 5A semifinals.Advertisement
As Garror has become a prominent human character, he has garnered interest from shows across the country. During the recruiting process, he received offers from Auburn, Texas A&M and Florida State. He has visits scheduled to Texas A&M and Auburn over the next few months, according to 247Sports.
If the Longhorns are able to trade Garror, they would add a player with starting potential. Over the last two years, he has recorded 210 tackles and 42.5 sacks. The Alabama native also forced five fumbles and thrived regardless of the opponent. That’s part of the reason it has caught the attention of Steve Sarkisian and his staff.
Although there are still a few teams in the mix, it’s a good sign for Texas that Garror is willing to travel to Austin. That will give Sarkisian the opportunity to make the EDGE elite an offer they can’t refuse.
