After much thought and prayer, I'm beyond blessed to announce my commitment to The University of Oklahoma! #BoomerSooner

Looks like the Hogs won't be gettin' Haughton herre. (Sorry I'll show myself out)
4* safety Kahlil Haughton picked Oklahoma this afternoon over Arkansas and Baylor. He was one of, if not the top target on Arkansas' DB list.
As of now, Dre Greenlaw remains the only commitment on Arkansas' list labeled a DB. It will be interesting to see what direction the Hogs go in for safeties and cornerbacks now that Haughton is no longer an option. It is possible that other current commits could move to DB, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
Houghton was widely expected to be either Baylor or OU bound although the Hogs always felt like they had a shot. He had offers from Arkansas, OU, Baylor, LSU, and Ohio State and many more.
Houghton is rated a 92 with 247sports. He officially visited the Razorbacks for the Alabama game and came away impressed, but not impressed enough.
