FAYETTEVILLE — Boerne (Texas) Class of 2025 fullback Hutson Hendrix committed to Arkansas earlier this week.

Hendrix, 5-10, 215, committed to the Razorbacks this week following being in attendance for Arkansas’ 19-14 win over Tennessee Saturday night. He will be a preferred walk-on at Arkansas. Hendrix posted his commitment on X.

“Excited to announce my commitment to the University of Arkansas! Extremely grateful for all the Arkansas coaches for believing in me and giving me a chance to play!”

Hendrix went into more detail on his decision with Hogville.net on Thursday. For him the chance to play at Arkansas wasn’t a difficult one.

“I grew up going to Arkansas games with my family and always loved the atmosphere and people there,” Hendrix said. “Whenever I received the opportunity to play there it was a no brainer for me.”

Hendrix was at the game with his brother Class of 2027 quarterback Hank Hendrix. In five games, Hendrix has caught seven passes for 41 yards and three touchdowns. At linebacker, Hendrix has 58 tackles, four tackles for loss, a quarterback hurry, one interception and a pass breakup.

Sam Pittman, Kolby Smith and Bobby Petrino also made a good impression on him.

“I also love the coaching staff and I’m extremely grateful they gave me the chance to play football there,” Hendrix said.

As far as the game the Hogs found a way to defeat the No. 4 team in the nation.

“The game was electric,” Hendrix said. “The crowd was in the game the whole time and storming the field was something I will never forget.”

The Razorbacks are among the several schools that have offered Hank Hendrix a scholarship for Class of 2027.
