STILLWATER – Oklahoma State is looking to add another offensive lineman to the 2026 class, and it appears the Pokes are one step closer. On Friday evening, four-star tackle, Evan Goodwin, released his final four schools, of which the Pokes are one.

Goodwin checks in at 6-7, 320 pounds, and is out of Bauxite (AR) HS, previously the Pulaski Academy in Little Rock, AR. 

Goodwin has been to Stillwater several times over the past two years, including camps, unofficial visits and when the Pokes beat Arkansas in double-overtime last season, with the Cowboy recruiting staff making their way over to Little Rock. 

According to ESPN, Goodwin is a top 300 prospect, checking in at No. 201. He’s a consensus four-star in the class at No. 266, the No. 22 offensive tackle and the No. 2 prospect out of Arkansas. 

On the field, Goodwin is a powerful run blocker and is exceptional with his mobility and blocking on the run. He is so athletic he can pull onside or off and can cover every concept from screens to dart. He is almost perfect in pass protection. It takes an exceptional edge rusher to even have a chance to get around Goodwin

Pokes Report has spoken with Goodwin several times and he has a strong interest in mechanical engineering, which Oklahoma State has a strong program just south of the Boone Pickens Stadium.

Wonder why there is no Arkansas offer? Any insight on that Robert? He may have expressed he's leaving the state but if he's really good you would think the locals would offer at least.

Probably due to the turmoil there.... but I'm just guessing.... have they even named a new HC?


Breaking News: Sam Pittman head coach of Razorback Nation just signed his resignation paper due to…..

2025-02-05

In a shocking turn of events, Sam Pittman, the head coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks, has officially resigned, citing internal team conflicts and external pressures as the primary reasons behind his decision. The announcement came today, leaving the university and fans alike stunned by the unexpected move.

Pittman, who took over as head coach in 2020, helped guide the Razorbacks through a challenging period, restoring the team's competitive edge. Under his leadership, the Razorbacks experienced notable improvements, including an exciting bowl game appearance and a renewed sense of pride in their football program. However, recent struggles on the field, including a series of disappointing losses, seem to have sparked tension within the coaching staff and among key players.

Sources close to the program have suggested that there were disagreements over team strategy and player development, which ultimately strained Pittman's relationship with certain members of the coaching staff. Additionally, mounting pressure from fans and the university administration to perform at a higher level in the competitive SEC conference contributed to the decision.
