“It was amazing,” Wallace said. “This is my first time being in Arkansas and it was everything I expected, It was beautiful. The campus was good, the coaches was good. Everybody was good.”

Travis Williams, who will be his position’s coach at Arkansas, was also his lead recruiter.

“That’s my dawg,” Wallace said. “On and off the field, he’s the same. When my brother committed to him three of four years ago, he’s the same. He hasn’t changed. He’s still that guy.”

In 2023, Wallace had 58 tackles, four for loss, 10 quarterback hurries, three pass breakups and 1.5 sacks.

He’s rated the nation’s No. 3 linebacker by On3 and 247Sports while ESPN has him No. 4. ESPN has him the nation’s No. 36 player regardless of position, 247Sports puts him at 37 and On3 has him No. 44.
