5-Star Tight End Oscar Delp Shocks the SEC — Flips Commitment to Arkansas Razorbacks
Fayetteville, AR — June 2, 2025
In a stunning turn of events that has sent shockwaves through the SEC, 5-star tight end Oscar Delp (6’5″, 245 lbs) has officially decommitted from the Georgia Bulldogs and announced his commitment to the Arkansas Razorbacks, turning down powerhouse offers from Texas A&M, LSU, and Texas.
The announcement came via a video released on Delp’s social media Monday morning, where the highly touted prospect, considered one of the best tight ends in the 2025 class, revealed his decision while standing on the field at Razorback Stadium. Donning Arkansas red, he said simply:
> “I’m ready to call the Hogs. Arkansas feels like home.”
Georgia’s Loss, Arkansas’ Gain
Delp, who was previously considered a cornerstone of Georgia’s next-generation offense, has been a standout since his high school days — a rare combination of size, speed, and elite route-running. The Bulldogs had high hopes of making him the next great tight end in their storied program, but sources close to the situation say Delp’s desire for a more featured role in the offense influenced his decision.
“Georgia is a great program,” Delp said in an exclusive interview. “But I wanted to be somewhere where I can help build something special and be the guy. Coach Pittman and the Arkansas staff made it clear I’d be that centerpiece.”
Why Arkansas?
The Razorbacks, under head coach Sam Pittman, have made major waves in recruiting recently — and Delp is arguably their biggest coup yet. With the departure of senior TE Luke Hasz, Arkansas was in need of a dominant replacement to maintain momentum in their high-powered offensive scheme.
“Delp is a program-changer,” said ESPN recruiting analyst Tom Luginbill. “He’s the kind of player who elevates everyone around him. This is a massive win for Arkansas — and a huge statement to the rest of the SEC.”
Left Behind: Texas A&M, LSU, and Texas
Delp’s final four came down to Arkansas, Texas A&M, LSU, and Texas, each making a hard push for the elite prospect. All four schools had visits scheduled, and insiders believed LSU and Texas were strong contenders.
In the end, however, it was Arkansas’ vision for Delp as a focal point in their offensive system — and the tight bond he formed with the coaching staff — that sealed the deal.
Looking Ahead
Delp is expected to enroll early in January and participate in spring practices. He’ll likely compete for immediate playing time, and with Arkansas’ upward trajectory, some analysts believe he could be the missing piece in a team poised for an SEC breakout season.
As he closed out his commitment video, Delp left Razorback fans with one last message:
“Let’s make history. Woo Pig Sooie!”Welcome to the Razorback family, Oscar Delp.
