Silverfield's staff lands former Hogs' high school recruit out of portal
He appeared in two games over the previous two seasons, recording just a pair of tackles against Oklahoma and Minnesota. The 6-foot-4, 300 pound transfer is a former 4-star recruit and No. 1 recruit out of Oklahoma in the 2024 class,Arkansas' defensive struggles were mostly due to a lack of depth and poor talent evaluation last season out of the transfer portal.
The Razorbacks recorded just 22 total sacks and only forced 65 tackles for loss on the season. First-year coach Ryan Silverfield has made an effort to transform the defensive line immediately as his staff brings in three more tackles in Hunter Osborne , Carlon Jones , and Antonio Sandel-Bascomb to lineup alongside Sims. Arkansas' transfer class currently ranks No. 25 nationally with a total of 36 additions out of the portal. The Razorbacks are also expected to host more defensive linemen this weekend with twin transfer tackles Armon and Jayvon Parker out of Washington.
