4-star linebacker opts for Arkansas

The University of Arkansas football program beat out Georgia, Florida, Florida State and numerous other programs for the commitment of consensus 4-star linebacker Tavion Wallace on Tuesday.

Wallace announced his commitment to the Razorbacks on social media.

Wallace, 6-1 and 218 pounds, of Jesup (Ga.) Wayne County, made an official visit to Fayetteville on May 31-June 2 and said he received a "home" feeling during the visit.

"This was my first time, and me, my mom and brother loved it," Wallace said after his Arkansas trip. "It felt like home."

Wallace narrowed his list of schools to Arkansas, Georgia, Florida and Florida State on June 3. He made official visits to the four finalists.

He is rated as the No. 3 linebacker and No. 44 overall recruit, according to On3.com.
