Two Razorback commits make cut for initial Rivals300
The initial version of the 2026 Rivals300 rankings were released on Monday and two future Arkansas Razorbacks made the cut alongside some of the nation’s best on the gridiron.
Prosper (Texas) consensus 4-star offensive lineman Bryce Gilmore claimed the highest ranking at 173rd overall. The “one of a kind” 6-foot-4, 270-pound Gilmore was the 16th commitment for Arkansas’ 2026 class and has a lengthy list of offers that also includes Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Miami, Missouri, Oregon and Washington, among others.
Four-star linebacker JJ Bush, one of Arkansas’ most recent pledges to its 2026 class, was one of 30 additions to the Rivals 300 as the Theodore (Ala.) product checked in at No. 238.
The Hogs beat out SEC foes LSU and Missouri for the coveted 6-foot-3, 205 pound Bush, who also reported offers from Cincinnati, Florida, Miami and Ole Miss, among others.
Another name listed that Arkansas fans should keep an eye on is Bryant four-star running back TJ Hodges, who is ranked 252nd overall and appears to have narrowed his decision to the Razorbacks and Missouri.
Hodges has not set a commitment date, but his announcement is “gonna be really soon.”
