The Hogs' might have a rising star emerge in backfield in 2024
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Coach Sam Pittman is believed to have an instant impact true freshmen in his tailback room this fall. Braylen Russell doesn't happen to be the highest rated prospect to sign with the Razorbacks for 2024. That honor goes to Charlie Collins from Little Rock Mills, the No. 65 prospect overall in the country, according to 247sports. That doesn’t change the fact of the Benton product being a difference maker for Arkansas this season.
Once senior Dominique Johnson and sophomore Isaiah Augustave weren't fixtures in the starting rotation at the completion of spring ball, Russell was presumedly bumped to third string with plenty of snaps up for grabs. That gave. He comes in at No. 90, the only freshman from Arkansas included in Hummer’s list.
Russell is the biggest running back on the team with a great combination of size, speed and shiftiness to make a difference as a freshman. He finished his prep career at Benton with 4,005 yards rushing and 66 touchdowns. His ability to catch out of the backfield is a plus and proved that throughout high school with 957 yards and 10 touchdowns receiving.
