The Razorbacks are building on their successful portal weekend with a commitment from Charlotte wide receiver O'Mega Blake.

Blake is the first WR over six feet tall to sign with the Hogs at 6-foot-2-inches and 180 pounds, adding size to Arkansas's depleted room. He's a former SEC receiver, spending three seasons at South Carolina and recording 251 yards and two touchdowns with the Gamecocks before transferring to Charlotte for the 2024-25 season.

While with the 49ers, Blake had a breakout season. He made 32 receptions for 795 yards and nine touchdowns. At 24.8 yards a reception — the most by any WR with over 30 receptions — he'll be a deep-threat option for Arkansas.

247Sports ranks him the No. 111 player overall in the portal and the No. 27 WR. He's a borderline composite four-star with On3 and 247 giving him a three-star, 89 rating, and Rivals rating him a 5.8 four-star transfer.
