FAYETTEVILLE — DeWitt 2022 tight end Dax Courtney had a wealth of college options and plenty of time to make a decision, but he is already certain what he wants his future to look like.
Courtney (6-6, 212) committed to Arkansas on Friday, joining Greenland defensive end JJ Hollingsworth (6-4, 250) as in-state juniors pledged to the Razorbacks.
He chose Arkansas out of his 17 offers, which included Penn State, Michigan State, TCU, Purdue, Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Vanderbilt, Memphis and Arkansas State. Razorbacks head coach Sam Pittman and tight ends coach Jon Cooper were big factors.
