FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas has landed its first wide receiver in the Class of 2021 with the addition of DeSoto (Texas) three-star Jaedon Wilson.
Wilson, 6-3, 175, announced his decision Tuesday on Twitter.
On May 10, Wilson narrowed his decision to 10 schools. Those were Arkansas, UCLA, Illinois, Utah, Missouri, Louisville, Kansas, Oregon State, California and Nebraska.
He visited Arkansas for a Junior Day on Feb. 1. He was recruited by Justin Stepp obviously with the old staff as well thus allowing Arkansas some continuity with Wilson’s recruiting. Kendal Briles, Arkansas’ new offensive coordinator, is also involved in his recruiting.
As a junior, Wilson caught 28 passes for 520 yards and six touchdowns. He is the eighth commitment in the class for Sam Pittman.
