The Arkansas Razorbacks suffered a major blow when they lost star running back Rawleigh Williams III to early retirement due to injury. That doesn’t necessarily mean that the Williams family is done contributing to the Arkansas football program, however.
Early on Sunday, Rawleigh’s little brother, Brian, posted a picture on Twitter of what seems like his top 6 college choices at the moment.
His list is full of elite college football powers as you’d expect with any 5-star prospect.

So, as it sits right now, Arkansas looks to be the only SEC team that has made the 5-star safety’s list. Williams is currently listed as the No. 7 overall player in the country according to 247Sports.
While the Texas Longhorns are currently considered the favorites to land the 6-0, 185-pound Dallas, Tex., native, it’s encouraging to see that the Razorbacks aren’t out of it.
There’s no doubt that a player of Williams caliber could help an Arkansas defense that currently has the 43rd ranked defense in the country and just gave up 50 points to Texas A&M on Saturday.
