Sorry I'm late in bringing this to the board guys. Dealing with a sick child (fine now) this morning and realized I forgot to get this up.
Arkansas has already garnered two commitments from the class of 2024 in June from the coaching staff’s efforts in official visits.
This weekend is another action-packed one, as the Arkansas campus is set to host at least five on official visits this weekend. That number was six, but four-star wide receiver Mekhai White canceled his visit and told HawgBeat it would not be rescheduled.
New visitors could likely pop up as the weekend goes on, so stay tuned to HawgBeat for the latest on who Arkansas has on campus.
Here's what to know about the visitors confirmed to be on campus this weekend.
Allen committed to Arkansas back in April, and is on hand this weekend for his official visit. This weekend's visit will be his third time on campus, as he took two unofficial visits on March 4 and April 15.
The 6-foot, 170-pound athlete had previously been committed to Texas, where his brother is going into his second season.
For Aledo last season, Allen racked up 48 total tackles and three interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown. He helped lead Aledo to a Texas state championship with a 52-14 win over College Station.
Allen is ranked the No. 237 player in the country according to Rivals.
A teammate of the aforementioned Allen, Johnson will also be on campus for an official visit this weekend. He's already seen Arizona State and Oregon, and has taken a few unofficial visits to Fayetteville already.
The newly-rated three-star released a Top 6 on May 20 of Arkansas, Arizona State, Oregon, Louisville and SMU.
Johnson is the son of former NFL defensive back Chris Johnson, who played at Louisville before being drafted by the Packers in 2003. He played in the NFL for nine seasons, appearing with the Packers, Raiders, Rams and Chiefs before finishing his career with the Ravens.
The state of Kentucky has been a lightly-recruited territory for the Hogs in recent years, but the Hogs dipped into Lexington in pursuit of Zuri Madison.
A three-star offensive lineman, Madison reported the offer from Arkansas on May 17. He's already taken an official visit to West Virginia and will be heading to Miami to look at the Hurricanes program next weekend.
Madison plays right tackle for Frederick Douglass High School, but at his size he could also play guard at the next level.
Defensive back has been a focal point in the 2024 cycle, and for good reason. Last year, Arkansas posted the worst pass defense in the FBS, and new co-defensive coordinator Marcus Woodson is working to make sure that doesn't happen again.
Bridges' Top 9, which was released on May 11, included some of the biggest brands in college football. In addition to Arkansas, Bridges is considering LSU, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Texas A&M, USC, Texas Tech and TCU.
A Temple, Texas, native, Bridges is ranked the No. 12 cornerback, No. 19 player in the state of Texas and No. 128 player in the nation according to Rivals.
A later addition to the official visitor list, Echoles is one of the more under-the-radar prospects on this weekend's list.
Echoles reported an offer from Arkansas on June 1, and included the Hogs in his Top 6 four days later on June 5. It included Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi State, Tulane, Auburn and Ole Miss.
Rivals has Echoles tabbed as an offensive lineman, but Arkansas is targeting him to play on the interior defensive line.
Echoles is one of four recruits from the state of Mississippi and one of three defensive lineman set up for official visits to Arkansas this month.
