Arkansas has landed one of its most significant early recruiting victories of the early Ryan Silverfield era. Four-star running back TJ Hodges, a 6’1”, 185-pound standout from Bryant (AR), has officially flipped his commitment from Missouri to the Razorbacks. Hodges had been pledged to the Tigers since October, but Arkansas’ new head coach wasted no time making him a top priority.
The flip marks another rapid recruiting win for Silverfield, who has been aggressively active in the early days of his tenure. And for a program in rebuild mode, securing elite in-state talent is exactly the kind of momentum Arkansas needed.
