COURTNEY CRUTCHFIELD, WR -- No. 64 OVERALL | ARKANSAS COMMIT
"Tabbed as the highest-ranked newcomer in the freshly-minted Top247, it’s hard not to fall quickly in love with Courtney Crutchfield’s athletic profile. both on and off the football field. A multi-sport athlete with three-phase ability on the gridiron, the Arkansas native’s combination of size and athleticism is readily apparent regardless of what sport he’s playing or what side of the ball he’s on. Listed at 6-foot-2 and 175-pounds, Crutchfield’s intrigue is often highlighted by his two-way playmaking ability, in addition to flashing outstanding ball skills and excellent run-after-catch ability on the offensive side of the ball.

"Only scratching the surface of what appears to be an increasingly high ceiling, Crutchfield’s background in track and field and basketball are plainly obvious when it comes to sifting through the Arkansas standout’s tape. A 6-foot-plus high jumper, Crutchfield's ability to play above the rim and make what should often be considered difficult look rather routine are calling cards to his game. Although he lacks verified metrics in speed, Crutchfield leaves little doubt or concern when projecting to the next level as he’s shown a consistency to make plays in the vertical passing game and has proven to be one of the best run-after-catch threats in the country." -- Cooper Petagna, 247Sports national scouting analyst
