The 6-foot-3, 230-pound Garner received the offer from Tulane on June 2.
Baylor’s Dennis “Meatball” Johnson, the former LSU assistant, did his very best to sway the outside linabacker/defensive end to the Bears. Tulane assistant J.J. McCleskey was responsible winning this commitment battle for the 2023 prospect.
Garner turns a 4.7 in the 40 and bends the edge with an outstanding first step. He squats 465 pounds, dead lifts 415 and bench presses 295. He also holds a 3.2 GPA in the classroom.
His work ethic and hot motor impress recruiters.
