Early National Signing Day 2023: Complete list of Arkansas high school football D-I signees
The Early Signing Period began Wednesday, but things got started a day sooner in The Natural State as Pine Bluff's Austyn Dendy inked his NLI (that was officially filed on Wednesday) on Tuesday morning. While that came as no shock, Dendy's teammate Courtney Crutchfield, a previous Arkansas commit, announced he was going to join Dendy, along Alma native Eli Drinkwitz and Drinkwitz's Tigers in Columbia. Which, honestly, was not a massive shocker, either.
Many more followed Wednesday – including five Razorbacks – and that will continue through the rest of the week.
If you know of any additions or corrections that need to be made to the list, please email nate@scorebooklive.com. We will continue to update this post as we learn of more signings.
