Arkansas has offered Ashdown receiver/tight end Shamar Easter, the first in-state class of 2023 recruit to receive an offer from the Razorbacks.
Easter said his family was happy about the offer.
"The family really wants me to go there because they don't want me to be too far," he said.
Easter, 6-5, 205 pounds, was recently named a top 10 prospect in the nation for his class. He has yet to play varsity football for the Panthers, but Ashdown Coach Matt Richardson has seen enough of him on the junior-high level to know he’s special.
“Big, long, athletic, as a football player he’s still raw,” Richardson said.
