Hogs land talented offensive lineman Hugh Smith

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas has reached into a familiar place in Texas to land Class of 2026 offensive lineman Hugh Smith.

Smith, 6-5, 300, is from the same high school that saw wide receiver Robert Haynes IV commit to the Hogs recently, Smith made his announcement on X Tuesday morning.

Smith chose the Hogs over offers from 15 other schools. He’s the second offensive lineman to commit to Arkansas for the Class of 2026. He joins Lakeside’s Tucker Young, 6-4, 300.
