Arkansas class gets big with 2 signing day commitments

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas football fans were a little worried about the lack of defensive linemen in the 2021 signing class, but Razorbacks coach Sam Pittman had a couple of aces up his sleeve.

Atlanta Tri-Cities star Cameron Ball (6-5, 300 pounds) and Jones (Miss) College standout Jalen Williams (6-3, 310) both went public with their commitments to Arkansas on Wednesday. They joined Vian, Okla., defensive tackle Solomon Wright (6-1, 280) in the class.

The additions of Ball and Williams are not likely to be the last along the defensive line.

“Now we still have some scholarships available and I think we still need at least one more D-lineman, preferably maybe a pass-rushing defensive end," Pittman said.
