Local OL Kaden Carr Signs With Texas Tech Red Raiders
There is arguably not a more underappreciated position group in football than the offensive line. After all, you mostly only hear their names called for a penalty or when the quarterback takes a beating.
For the Texas Tech Red Raiders, who are looking to get even better on offense in 2023, putting together an offensive line that can give the quarterback a clean pocket to pass from as well as open running lanes for their running backs is of utmost importance.
As such, their loaded 2023 recruiting class includes multiple offensive lineman that will look to make an impact from day one. Among those is Kaden Carr, a 6-5, 320-pound offensive tackle from local Lubbock-Cooper High School in Lubbock, TX.
Keeping Carr in town was a big win for Joey McGuire and his staff, as he held offers from several schools including Arizona State, Houston, Louisville, Oregon, SMU, TCU and UCF.
Carr might not see the field immediately as a freshman in 2023, but his addition shows that the Red Raiders understand the importance of having a solid offensive line.
When he does see the field, though, he has shown the ability in high school to be a potential anchor at the tackle spot for what could become one of college football's best offensive lines.
