"Gamer" is a word that came up when discussing DJ Lagway, a stoutly built emerging quarterback prospect from Willis (Texas) High School. Already in the 6-foot-2, 215-pound range, Lagway has three-sport experience (baseball, basketball) and averaged 4.9 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks on varsity as a freshman in the 2020-21 hoops campaign. As a sophomore this past fall, Lagway led Willis to a Class 6A Division II second-round playoff appearance as he threw for 1,579 yards, 17 touchdowns, and two interceptions on a 55.5 completion rate, in addition to 715 rushing yards and six scores on 5.6 yards per carry.

Lagway's size and athleticism result in serious velocity and vertical arm strength, plus big-play ability as a runner. Lagway, another Top247 candidate in the 2024 cycle, flashes off-platform, improvisational ability that serves him well. The son of a former Baylor running back, Lagway has already garnered a lengthy list of offers.

Arkansas Targets in Top247 for 2024

quote:
247Sports has released its initial Top247 rankings for the Class of 2024, and the list includes several prospects who are already closely linked to the Arkansas Razorbacks. Here's a closer look at the names to know, including instate targets, players who have already visited the Hogs, and the Razorbacks' only verbal pledge for the 2024 cycle

quote:
12 - KingJoseph Edwards | DL | Buford (Ga.) - Made a trip to Fayetteville last fall and said earlier this week that he'll be back on the Hill in June.

19 - Ryan Wingo | WR | St. Louis (Mo.) University - Younger brother of former Razorback Ronnie Wingo Jr. has visited Arkansas multiple times and will be expected to make more trips to Fayetteville throughout the rest of his recruitment. The Hogs are considered a strong contender early on.

35 - Tylen Singleton | S | Many (La.) - Singleton was blown away by his first trip to Arkansas last month and said he will definitely be back for a second look. He is teammates with 2023 four-star linebacker and major Arkansas target Tackett Curtis.

46 - DJ Lagway | QB | Willis (Texas) - It's still very early and Lagway will visit a ton of schools, but the Razorbacks are already seen as a major player in his recruitment following his second trip to Fayetteville.

52 - Colin Simmons | DE | Duncanville (Texas) - Simmons was one of several big-time 2024 targets who made their way to the UA for a prospect day visit in March, and he has plans of returning later in the year.

59 - Xadavien Sims | DL | Sherman (Texas) - Sims was on Arkansas' campus for a camp visit last June, but it seems things have gone quiet between the two parties lately.

60 - Maurice Williams | S | Pearland (Texas) Shadow Creek - Williams also visited the Hogs last summer and had multiple reschedules this offseason, but says he still plans to be back for another visit soon.

161 - Walker White | QB | Little Rock (Ark.) Christian - White is an in-state target and younger brother of former Razorback wide receiver John David White. He has yet to be offered by the Hogs but is being closely monitored by the staff. Walker has made multiple trips to the Hill.

169 - Payton Pierce | LB | Lucas (Texas) Lovejoy - There's plenty of competition, but Arkansas has to love its position thus far with Pierce. He plans to be back on campus on April 23 for another visit with Sam Pittman's staff. Pierce works out with former Razorback running back Jonathan Williams.

223 - Kavion Henderson | DL | Leeds (Ala.) - Arkansas has already received a Crystal Ball prediction for Henderson, who is coming off his second trip to Fayetteville last month and will be back for a third visit soon. Henderson is close friends with 2023 Razorback pledge Dallas Young.

245 - Ka'Davion Dotson | CB | Duncanville (Texas) - Dotson has already received a Crystal Ball pick to the Hogs after making two trips to Arkansas on back-to-back weekends in March.

246 - Melvin Laster | LB | Liberty (Mo.) North - Laster has already made multiple trips to the UA and said recently that he's working to get back to Fayetteville again soon.

247 - Braylen Russell | RB | Hot Springs (Ark.) Lakeside - Russell is Arkansas' lone commitment to start the 2024 class. He's also one of the most notable running back prospects to come out of the Natural State in several years.
