Breaking: Another Elite Mega-Star Commit To Razorbacks…..

Jacksonville State transfer linebacker Larry Worth details his stay with Travis Williams and the Razorbacks.

Arkansas hosted two transfer linebackers in the first four days of the 15-day transfer window, including Jacksonville State transfer Larry Worth, who commmitted to the Razorbacks at 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Worth said the Hogs’ opportunity for early playing time led him to choose Sam Pittman’s program.

“Just fits me schematically,” he said. “I can make a lot of plays. I can make an immediate impact.”

Worth, a 2022 graduate of Jacksonville (Fla.) Baldwin, has two years of eligibility remaining and wanted a closer look at the Hogs’ need for more experience and depth at defensive coordinator Travis Williams’ linebacker position.

“Just to see where I fit in the scheme,” Worth said. “Just see where I can have a big role and make an impact. Coach T-Will just felt like family. It seemed like a great opportunity.”

This past season, the 6-4, 220-pound junior finished with 63 tackles, 6 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, 3 quarterback hurries, 2 pass break-ups, an interception, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery over the span of 13 games.

“I bring a lot of versatility,” he said. “You can throw me in where ever you need a play made on defense. I promise you are going to have a play made.

Arkansas offensive lineman Paris Patterson to transfer

Arkansas football will lose a fifth player to the spring transfer portal window…

Arkansas second-year offensive lineman Paris Patterson is set to enter the transfer portal, according to 247Sports national analyst Matt Zenitz. Patterson is the fifth Razorback player to announce intentions to enter the portal during the spring transfer window.

Patterson committed to the Razorbacks in the 2023 recruiting cycle as a three-star prospect and No. 40 interior offensive lineman in the country. He was rated as the No. 8 overall player in the state of Illinois for the 2023 class. He chose Arkansas over a scholarship offer list including Tennessee, LSU, Iowa State, Nebraska and Kansas among others.

Last season, Patterson saw very limited action with the Razorbacks and ultimately redshirted. The 6-6, 352-pound redshirt freshman spent the majority of Arkansas football’s 2024 spring practice as the third-team guard.
