As most college football teams prepare to kick off their 2023 season this weekend, the recruiting game has slowed to a grind this week. There are still some prizes being found, though. Alabama got themselves a local three-star tight end a couple of days ago, and Arkansas just added some depth to their offensive line.
Here’s how Marvin Ridge (NC) three-star offensive tackle Kai Greer announced his commitment to the Razorbacks on Wednesday night after previously having been committed to Stanford.
I am excited to announce that I am committing to the University of Arkansas! I’d like to thank my family, @CoachLeggett78, and Coach Carter for believing in me and helping me reach my goals.@CoachSamPittman @CoachCKennedy @RivalsFriedman @RazorbackFB @BrianDohn247 pic.twitter.com/uIlAiU215Z

Greer (6-foot-6, 285 pounds) had offers from 25 other schools, including Boston College, Campbell, Duke and Penn State. He ranks as high as No. 7 in the state and No. 27 at his position, both at Rivals.
It’s not a huge blow, but it doesn’t help Stanford – currently slotted at No. 22 in the nation in the 2024 recruiting rankings. Arkansas jumped one spot, leap-frogging Ole Miss into being ranked No. 20 in the country.
