It’s tough to make it as an SEC wide receiver when you’re just 5-9. Arkansas’ Karch Gardiner showed that when the opportunity presents itself, he can make up for his height with his hops.
Gardiner earned “Top 10” play recognition on ESPN for an impressive one-handed catch he made in Razorbacks practice:

Gardiner redshirted in 2019, appearing in one game (San Jose State) and will be a redshirt freshman this fall. Out of Del Valle High School in El Paso, Texas, Gardiner joined Arkansas in 2019 as a walk-on. A 2-star recruit on the 247Sports Composite, Gardiner had scholarship offers from Incarnate Word and Morehead State.
