It wouldn’t be Texas high school football if there wasn’t a bit of preseason controversy brewing.
↵Southlake Carroll, considered by most to be one of the top high school football programs in the country, is coming under fire after WFAA, ABC’s Dallas/Fort Worth affiliate, broke a story questioning the eligibility of quarterback Daxx Garman.
↵While the Oklahoma high school transfer, and University of Arizona commit, currently resides in Southlake, he still has a connection to a home in Oklahoma.
↵Given the UIL’s strict residency requirements, there’s a chance Garman could be ruled ineligible for the first game of the season.
↵A district executive committee will make a ruling on Garman’s eligibility on Friday morning, just hours before Carroll is set to face Copperas Cove.
↵This isn’t the first time Garman has been questioned about his residency.
↵His high school in Oklahoma had to forfeit games last year after he was ruled ineligible for transferring without a hardship waiver.
