FAYETTEVILLE — In the midst of a busy sports weekend in Fayetteville, something big happened Sunday that kind of flew under the radar.
For all the great recruiting work done by Arkansas football coach Chad Morris and his staff since they’ve arrived, they somewhat quietly added their highest-ranked player to this point after his official visit.
Carthage, Texas, offensive lineman Ty’Kieast Crawford (6-5, 320 pounds) is regarded as the 71st-best player nationally overall and the 10th-best offensive line prospect, according to 247 Sports.
Crawford is a tackle prospect with a great motor that projects to potentially being a three-year player in college before jumping to the NFL.
