Hogs' DT pledge from Oklahoma to open season in Northwest Arkansas

FAYETTEVILLE — An interested observer recently described Arkansas defense tackle pledge Solomon Wright of Vian, Okla., as someone who is “low to the ground and always ready to get down.”

That seems to be an accurate assessment of Wright (6-0, 270 pounds), the son of former Oklahoma State star and NFL linebacker Kenyatta Wright and one of the Sooner State's top 2021 prospects.

Solomon Wright is coming off a junior season in which he had 124 tackles, 14 sacks and 51 stops for lost yardage for head coach Gary Willis.

“Genetics are a wonderful thing,” Willis said.
