I can see him being a free agent practice squad.

Woods would still be a nonfactor and he might have opted out in the middle of the year if he stayed like Boyd did the year before. He simply didn't want to be here and would slack off on the field if the option of transferring wasn't a choice.

Why not try and bring him in too

ISAIAH SATEGNA, WR (Arkansas)
ISAIAH SATEGNA, WR (Arkansas)
quote:
Sategna on Thursday showed impressive spatial awareness during short-to-intermediate drills and routes on air, then found open space on those same levels in 7-on-7 competition. He provides an intriguing weapon for the East as a slot type who can find openings for quicker throws, but also run by defenders in the vertical game with decathlete-boosted speed and athleticism.

Arkansas signee Samuel Mbake is a route winner in the short and intermediate passing game. The 15 pounds of weight loss has made for a quicker player out of cuts. That, along with his strong hands and catch radius provides a consistent target in the intermediate game. He’s not going to race past coverage or win deep, so being a precision route runner will be key at the next level. – Gerry Hamilton

So we should expect Mbake to drop in the rankings now?

WR Samuel Mbake – Arkansas
Samuel Mbake‘s week is San Antonio was a continuation of what we saw on senior tape. The On3 Consensus 4-star has dropped weight and has a sleeker wide receiver body type. Senior video showed a player that was both strong and physical on contact with a stiff arm to maximize yards after the catch. The physicality was on full display in the All-American Bowl practice setting. We saw an improved route runner with a strength in the short and intermediate game. His quick feet, height and length allow for the Peach State product to win in traffic and in contested situations. We do not see Mbake as a consistent winner vertically, so he will have to continue to develop double moves to create downfield separation. – Gerry Hamilton

It would be nice if all these WR coming in could double Burks output by committee.
Maybe bump us up to a 50:50 offense.

If they do that, they will definitely double the output of what we had besides Burks. At least we won’t be predictable on offense.

Alabama linebacker/edge rusher Drew Sanders has committed to transfer to the Arkansas Razorbacks. Sanders went public with his decision on Sunday, choosing the Hogs over other finalists Texas and Oklahoma. He made visits at all three schools last week.
Sanders was recruited to Fayetteville by second-year linebackers coach Michael Scherer, who hosted the coveted transfer for a one-day visit on Wednesday. He will be listed as a junior in 2022 but technically has three years remaining due to the COVID 2020 season.
Sanders, who was listed as the nation's No. 22 overall recruit as a 2020 graduate of Denton (Texas) Ryan, appeared in 24 games during his two years with the Crimson Tide. As a sophomore in 2021, he made 24 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, a sack, 4 quarterback hurries and 2 pass break-ups in 12 games. Sanders had 9 tackles and a quarterback hurry in 12 games as a true freshman in 2020.
As a recruit, Sanders was a five-star prospect out of Denton (Texas) Ryan in the Class of 2020. The 247Sports Composite rankings had him as the No. 22 overall prospect in the nation, No. 1 among all ‘athletes’ and No. 3 overall in the state of Texas. 247Sports listed Sanders even higher, at No. 13 overall in the nation, the No. 1 athlete in the country, and the No. 1 player in the Lone Star State.
National scout Gabe Brooks gave Sanders a glowing evaluation as a prospect in 2020:
“Big-framed jumbo athlete who could play high-major football on either side of the line of scrimmage in multiple spots,” Brooks wrote. “Owns outstanding height and frame length with a ton of space to add bulk. Physical profile fits edge defender and tight end. Playing experience at QB, tight end, receiver, and multiple spots on defense. Possesses size and athleticism to play traditional in-line tight end or a predominantly flex role. Shows good body control as a receiver. Adjusts well to the ball when needed. Encouraging consistency as a hands catcher. Owns a large catch radius. Motor runs high and physical style suggests high ceiling as a blocker. Will face adjustment to playing one position full-time after multiple roles in high school. Honing route-running precision and overall technique as a receiver will be keys in college. Great frame but must fill it out with proper bulk and strength. Can improve pad level and leverage consistency. Should become an impact Power 5 starter with the potential to reach an early-round NFL Draft projection.”

Former LSU cornerback Dwight McGlothern has committed to transfer to the Arkansas Razorbacks. McGlothern, 6-2, 190, went public with his decision during an official visit on Sunday, becoming the Hogs’ fourth incoming transfer for the current offseason.
McGlothern was a four-star prospect out of Spring (Texas) Klein Oak in the Class of 2020. He chose the Tigers over offers from Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Penn State, Texas, Texas A&M, USC and many others. As a transfer, he was recruited to Fayetteville by third-year cornerbacks coach Sam Carter.
McGlothern played in six games as a true freshman in the shortened 2020 season, recording 9 tackles and 2 pass break-ups. He appeared in 10 games in 2021, posting 32 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 5 pass break-ups, an interception for a touchdown, a forced fumble and a quarterback hurry. The Texas native had 3 tackles and a PBU in Arkansas’ 16-13 overtime win over the Tigers in Baton Rouge on November 13.
As a recruit, the 247Sports Composite rankings tabbed McGlothern as the No. 278 overall prospect in the nation, No. 20 among all cornerbacks, and No. 41 in the state of Texas for the Class of 2020. 247Sports listed him as the No. 47 cornerback in the land and the No. 73 player in the Lone Star State.
National analyst Gabe Brooks gave the All-American Bowl selection a detailed evaluation as a prospect:
“Tall and long cornerback prospect with very high frame potential relative to the position,” Brooks wrote. “Great height and length that manifest in breakups on the field. Experience on both sides of the ball with ball skills that aid in the secondary. Size and length suggest plenty of potential as a press corner. Should be reliable in red-zone situations. Has shown good awareness in off-man and zone coverage with encouraging anticipatory skills. Natural high-pointer who can turn into the receiver in 50-50 scenarios. Often plays too upright. Can improve lateral mobility and overall fluidity in coverage. Shows adequate top-end speed thanks to speed-building long gait, but can improve initial quick-twitch explosion. Again, owns a ton of frame space, but is narrow and will need to add some strength transitioning to college. Tall DB with potential position versatility, ball skills, and awareness who could become quality Power 5 starter.”

Just read through some of it. They lose him and then say he was academically ineligible and was kicked off the team.

The amount of butthurt that most LSU fans have shown after McGlothern transferred tells me he is probably a good player and they are jelly.

Arkansas has top transfer portal class
Arkansas has top transfer portal class
quote:
You can make a strong argument nobody has recruited the transfer portal better this offseason than Arkansas’ Sam Pittman.
The Razorbacks join only Oklahoma as the two programs in the country with at least three committed transfers who ranked as four-star or higher recruits coming out of high school.
In fact, Jadon Haselwood, who ironically transferred from Oklahoma, was a five-star prospect in high school. Alabama linebacker transfer Drew Sanders was also a five-star recruit.
Sanders joins two impact four-star transfers from LSU in EDGE Landon Jackson and cornerback Dwight McGlothern. All three will add immediate talent and compete for starting roles on the Razorbacks’ defense.
Haselwood should also be an immediate impact player for Arkansas’ offense. He registered at least one catch every game for Oklahoma in the 2021 season, finishing with 39 receptions for 399 yards and six touchdowns. Haselwood also averaged 10.2 yards per reception.

High 4* 2023 QB Jackson Arnold fonged to OU.
Many believed Arkansas had a real.... Real shot at landing him. As in we were probably a favorite just a couple weeks ago.
Luke Hasz is supposedly still a very very heavy Arkansas lean and is likely committing soon, but he wants to make sure all of his ducks are in a row before he commits and likely shuts down all recruiting after that.

Former Georgia safety Latavious Brini has committed to the Arkansas Razorbacks. Brini, who entered the portal on January 13, took an official visit in Fayetteville last week.
Brini chose the Hogs over Texas, Missouri, Mississippi State and others.
The fifth-year senior will have one year of eligibility remaining at his next stop as the COVID season of 2020 did not count against his NCAA clock. Brini started in 11 of the national champion Bulldogs' 15 games this past season, recording 38 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss and 8 pass break-ups on the year.
For his career, the 6-2, 210-pound safety has posted 50 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 1 interception and 9 pass break-ups. Brini had a season-high 5 tackles in three separate games against Auburn, Florida, and Tennessee. He recorded one tackle and a pass break-up in Georgia's 37-0 win over Arkansas on October 2.
With the Razorbacks, Brini could be asked to fill the positions left by Joe Foucha (safety) or Greg Brooks Jr. (nickel), both of whom transferred to LSU earlier this month.
Georgia signed Brini out of Hialeah (Fla.) Mater Academy in the Class of 2017. Brini was a 247Sports Composite three-star prospect ranked as the No. 50 cornerback in the nation and the No. 66 overall prospect in the state of Florida. 247Sports had him rated higher, as the No. 41 cornerback in the country and the No. 52 player in his home state.
Brini is Arkansas' sixth incoming transfer of the offseason, joining wide receiver Jadon Haselwood (Oklahoma), defensive lineman Landon Jackson (LSU), linebacker Drew Sanders (Alabama), cornerback Dwight McGlothern (LSU), and walk-on quarterback Cade Fortin (South Florida).
The Razorbacks are still on the market for more transfers. Defensive line, linebacker and defensive backs are thought to be Arkansas' top priorities.
