The Class of 2021 prospect, listed as 6-foot-7, 296 pounds, attends Gadsden City High School and has an 88 rating (high 3-star) from the 247 Sports Composite List. They consider him the 377th best player in America (28th best offensive tackle and 13th best player in Alabama).
Orr switched over to offensive tackle from defensive line last season, making an instant impact that threw him on the recruiting radar.
“At first, I wasn’t too happy about it,” Orr told AL.com. “My dad and I talked about it. I asked him what he thought about the change as soon as I got home that day. My dad told me he thought it would be great. I started playing offense from there.”
He’s a dual-sport athlete, as well:
