BREAKING NEWS: THE HEAD COACH OF ARKANSAS RAZORBACKS HAS ANNOUNCED THAT STEPHEN DIX JR. IS LIVING THE TEAM OF ARKANSAS RAZORBACKS TODAY……READ MORE…..
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – By now pretty much everyone is aware of the anonymous negative quotes that came out about Arkansas coach Sam Pittman and his staff a few weeks ago.
Well, allHogs editor Kent Smith and staff recruiting guru Jacob Davis sat down recently to not only narrow down who the most likely source of such comments might be, but also try to figure out what a reasonable expectation is for Pittman’s team this fall. How many wins do the Hogs need before it’s considered exceeding expectations.
The Arkansas Razorbacks shocked the world with one recruiting commitment. On3 Sports recruiting analyst Josh Newberg calls it “the surprise of the summer.”
The Razorbacks earned a commitment from elite Jesup (GA) linebacker Tavion Wallace.
Wallace surprisingly chose Arkansas over the Florida Gators, Florida State Seminoles and in-state powerhouse Georgia Bulldogs.
The talented player described what he intends to bring the Razorbacks when he gets on campus in an interview with On3 Sports’ Phillip Dukes.
“My versatility. Not many linebackers as big as me can run as fast as I can, guard receivers, tight ends, running back and blitz off the edge, blitz A-gap.”
It’s clear the gifted linebacker recruit isn’t shying away from any responsibility on the defense. He’s not afraid to be isolated in coverage.
Arkansas opens the season against Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Thursday, Aug. 29.
Arkansas graduate students Kajal Mistry and Ele Anacona have each been named to the Women’s Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) All-American Scholar Team for the fourth time in their careers.
To be selected, a student-athlete must have an overall cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher, be an amateur on the team’s roster through the close of the team’s season and have played in 50 percent of the collegiate’s regularly scheduled competitive rounds during the year.
Head coach Shauna Taylor continues to coach a group of women who achieve success both on and off the golf course. Coming off her 17th season at the helm, this year became the 15th year, eighth consecutively, at least one of her student-athletes was named to the team. In all Razorbacks have combined for 48 WGCA Academic All-America Scholar honors since 1997.
