Arkansas Lands Three-Star DL James Stewart

Author: The Daily News Now! June 8, 2026 Duration: 1:23

Arkansas just snagged a big one: three-star defensive lineman James Stewart, a 6’1”, 285-pound junior from Tennessee, officially committed Monday after a standout visit to Fayetteville. With 68 tackles, 13 for loss, two sacks, and two forced fumbles as a junior — plus Region 3-6A Defensive Lineman of the Year honors — Stewart brings elite talent and a solid academic profile. He had offers from Illinois, Tulane, Memphis, Maryland, Boston College, and Colorado, but the Razorbacks’ campus vibe and player culture sealed the deal. This latest addition bolsters Arkansas’ defensive line and shows how much impact a campus visit can have on a recruit’s decision.
