Former Arkansas OT Ty'Kieast Crawford transferring to West Virginia, per report

Former Arkansas offensive tackle Ty’Kieast Crawford has changed his mind on his destination for this fall and is transferring to West Virginia, his agents told ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg on Monday.

The 6-foot-5, 324-pounder had originally committed to play for UCLA in 2025, but now the mammoth tackle has pivoted and has decided to play for Rich Rodriguez in Morgantown this fall. Crawford started 9 games along the Razorbacks’ offensive line.

West Virginia has added former Arkansas offensive tackle Ty’Kieast Crawford, his agents tell ESPN. He entered the portal and originally committed to UCLA but instead will play for Rich Rodriguez in Morgantown. Crawford started nine games for Arkansas.
— Adam Rittenberg (@ESPNRittenberg) January 13, 2025

Crawford’s collegiate journey has already taken him to multiple schools. He began his career at Charlotte, choosing to play there over the likes of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, LSU, Missouri, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Arizona, Baylor, Colorado, Florida State, Houston, Indiana, Oklahoma State, Purdue, SMU, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, USC and, ironically, West Virginia. So Crawford will now have played for 2 of the schools he originally spurned, in Arkansas and West Virginia.

But Crawford didn’t last long at Charlotte, playing just 1 season for the 49ers. He entered the transfer portal and ended up at Arkansas after spurning the Razorbacks in his original recruiting process. Crawford appeared in 33 games for the Razorbacks over the course of 4 seasons, making 9 starts.

He will have 1 more year of eligibility left when he arrives in Morgantown to play for Rodriguez this fall.
