Garrett Smith brings veteran size and steady value to UT Martin’s front
Garrett Smith is a 6-foot-3, 305-pound graduate-student offensive lineman for UT Martin who gives the Skyhawks experienced, reliable depth up front in the 2026 season. The big selling points are his frame, maturity, and proven recruiting pedigree — he was a 5A all-state honoree and two-time all-region pick at Portland HS — which suggest a player built to handle physical football and stabilize a line room. He’s not a stat-sheet guy, but for an OL, that’s the point: keep the pocket clean, move people, and make the run game go thump in the night.
