3-Star 2025 Defensive Lineman Dior Garner (6’4″/285) has locked in an Official Visit to NC State on June 21-23.
Garner also has Official Visits scheduled with Central Michigan (June 15-17), Eastern Michigan (June 9-11) and Bowling Green (June 7-9).
Currently, he is planning on making his college decision on July 1st.
NC State Defensive Lineman Coach Wiles was in to see Garner last week.
Garner plays for McKinley in Canton, Ohio. He holds offers from Michigan, West Virginia, Kentucky, Eastern Michigan, Central Michigan, Bowling Green and others.
That ranking is going to rise a little more tomorrow when the flip that is coming is announced. It’s going to be a good day tomorrow Pack fans!
It will be curious to see if State and other P5 schools will settle on a ratio of traditional recruits versus transfers. As of today, it’s nearly a 3:1 ratio of traditionals to transfers. My guess is that you’d want that ratio to be lower, like 2.5 or even 2.0
While you’ll likely get the traditional guys for longer periods of time, you get more certainty with the transfers. Porter Rooks was a 4-star recruit but there hasn’t been that type of production on the field from him. Grimes will likely be a big upgrade.
