Arkansas earned a rather important pledge last weekend from 2023 defensive tackle commit Stephen Johnson as he announced he'd be enrolling early following his senior season.
"It was 110% a football decision because honestly, education is gonna come with the whole college thing, so you know we love - my mom was really the main one who was talking about it," Johnson said. "She wanted me to put in academics just so I can take summer classes just so I can keep my brain right."
Johnson, who committed to the Razorbacks back in June after his official visit, became the first of Sam Pittman's 12th-ranked '23 class to go public with his intentions to graduate early and begin his college career.
