Texas A&M TE Fernando Garza enters NCAA transfer portal
Texas A&M tight end Fernando Garza has entered the NCAA transfer portal.
Garza played high school football at Katy (TX) High School, where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 681 overall recruit in the 2021 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a proprietary algorithm that compiles ratings and rankings from all four primary recruiting media services.
He spent two seasons in College Station under former head coach Jimbo Fisher before entering his name into the transfer portal. Garza did not record a catch during the first two years of his collegiate career.
Fisher has since been let go as headman and replaced with former defensive coordinator Mike Elko. He comes to Texas A&M after spending just under two seasons at Duke. Before that (2018-2021), Elko’s stint as the Aggies’ DC included two eight-win seasons, and two nine-win seasons including one year that saw Texas A&M finish No. 5 in the final College Football Playoff rankings. He looks to replicate that success as the Aggies’ boss, though Garza will not be there for the rebuild.
