Paris (Tenn.) Henry County offensive lineman Luke Brown has committed to Arkansas, he announced Tuesday on social media.

Brown is the No. 293 overall prospect in the 2023 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 17 interior offensive lineman and the No. 6 junior in the state of Tennessee.

He named a list of eight programs as his top schools in February, but it didn’t include Arkansas. Among the contenders were Auburn, Florida State, Kentucky, Memphis, Michigan State, Missouri, Vanderbilt and Virginia.

Another notable program missing was in-state Tennessee, which offered Brown but hasn’t recruited him as hard as the other programs.

“These eight have been on me the most and the systems most of these schools play in, I feel like that where I fit in best,” Brown told the Tennessean

After visiting Arkansas in early March, Luke Brown visited again this past weekend, where the Razorbacks impressed him enough to get him onboard this early.

He is Arkansas’ fifth four-star commit in the 2023 cycle thus far, joining four-star tight ends Luke Hasz, Shamar Easter and Jaden Hamm, as well as cornerback Dallas Young and EDGE Quincy Rhodes Jr.

The Razorbacks hold the No. 9 class nationally, according to the On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings.
