Arkansas’ running back problem has an obvious transfer portal solution

Related Topics: Arkansas

Liberty sophomore running back Evan Dickens is officially entering the NCAA transfer portal, his agency confirmed. One of the most productive runners in the country this season, Dickens immediately becomes one of the top available backs in the 2026 cycle and a player Arkansas should aggressively pursue.

The former Georgia Tech transfer exploded in 2025, finishing 5th nationally in rushing yards (1,339) and scoring 16 touchdowns on 5.8 yards per carry across just 11 games. His blend of burst, vision, and consistency turned Liberty’s offense into a weekly headache for opponents, and his statistical résumé stacks up against nearly any running back in the nation.
