Expert Analysis
Michael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Arrington doesn’t have the gaudy tackle numbers of some high-level defensive prospects, but he has 5.5 sacks and 15 hurries.
He is a physical player for his size and gets in the backfield regularly.

Read EvaluationJordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Arrington’s recruiting is exploding and quickly becoming a national recruit with five new P5 offers coming in the last two weeks from programs like Utah, Penn State, and Tennessee. Picked up a handful offers in the spring to kick off his recruitment but was still flying under the radar given his ability and skillset. At 6’3” 215 lbs. he’s an attacking defender that is violent finisher with great instincts and range to play sideline to sideline. He plays fast while flying around in pursuit and exploding at the contact point to finish opponents to the ground. A really good athlete with the short area quickness and burst to redirect and close space. Like his ability to anticipate where the ball’s going to trigger quickly and take a good angle to the ball carrier. Does a good job taking on and defeating blockers with his hands, gets good extension to not allow blockers to get into his body and then disengage. Watch him stack up more offers and climb up national rankings/recruiting boards.
14 Offers: Arizona, Arizona State, Boston College, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon State, Penn State, Tennessee, Utah, San Diego State, UCLA, Washington, UNLV, Oregon
