Texas A&M honored Myles Garrett and Terry Price in its 2026 Hall class, pairing a record-setting pass rusher with a beloved Aggies mentor in one fitting tribute.
Texas A&M football got a powerful double dose of history Monday as Myles Garrett and Terry Price were named part of the Texas A&M Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2026 celebration.
Garrett, one of the most violent edge rushers college football has ever seen, is headed into the Hall of Fame.
Price, the late Aggies great known across the program simply as “TP,” will be honored in the Hall of Honor.
That’s a fitting pairing. One was the superstar everyone saw coming. The other helped build the kind of culture that makes stars want to come to Aggieland in the first place.
Garrett’s resume still looks ridiculous.
In three seasons at Texas A&M from 2014-16, he stacked up 145 tackles, 48.5 tackles for loss, 32.5 sacks, 30 quarterback pressures and seven forced fumbles.
He didn’t just arrive as a five-star freak and coast on talent. He wrecked game plans immediately, breaking the SEC freshman sack record with 11.5 sacks in 2014 and then somehow becoming even more dangerous.
By 2016, Garrett was a unanimous All-American and one of the sport’s most feared defenders.
The Cleveland Browns made him the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, making him the first Aggie ever selected first overall.
Since then, he’s turned his A&M promise into NFL dominance, piling up Pro Bowls, All-Pro honors and Defensive Player of the Year hardware.
But Price’s honor hits differently.
Terry Price wasn’t just part of Texas A&M football. He was Texas A&M football.
A four-year letterman from 1986-89, Price helped the Aggies win two conference championships, earned All-Southwest Conference recognition and later played in the NFL with the Chicago Bears and Miami Dolphins.
Then he came back and poured himself into the next generation.
As a defensive line coach and recruiter, Price became one of the most trusted voices in the building.
He helped develop future pros, including Garrett, while giving Texas A&M something harder to measure than sacks or recruiting rankings: connection.
Players didn’t just play for TP. They believed him. They trusted him. They knew he cared.
Price died on June 23, 2023, but his fingerprints remain all over the program.
Texas A&M will honor the 2026 class at the Burgess Banquet on Sept. 11, then recognize the group again during the Arizona State game on Sept. 12. Garrett’s induction celebrates greatness. Price’s honor celebrates legacy.
Together, they tell a story Aggies already know well: talent matters, but people last.
