With Arkansas football already touting 27 commitments on board in the Class of 2026, most of the eyes on the Natural State’s recruiting trail will shift ahead to the 2027 class.
The state’s elite rising juniors enter the season with a chance to burst on the scene and really make a name for themselves. Fayetteville High quarterback Hank Hendrix, a recent transplant from Boerne, Texas, is already a top-100 prospect in the country, according to On3/Rivals. Sheridan High offensive lineman Bradley Sturdivant, a three-star prospect, was the Razorbacks’ first commitment in the 2027 class.
This season, the 6-foot-3, 300-pounder will be paving the way for one of the state’s most promising running back prospects in Isaiah Stephens.
