Barkley picked Arkansas over offers from Illinois, UNLV and Texas State.
He talked to Otis Kirk of 247Sports about his decision to commit to Bret Bielema and the Razorbacks:
“I felt like I had a lot to bring to them and they had a lot to bring to me,” Barkley said. “I liked the offense last season. I thought it was explosive. I feel I can play there and like the chance to play immediately.”
