There are some walkon's that people in Arkansas may be familiar with.

Kavin Alexander(5-8, 190) former NLR DB is on their roster. His athleticism attracted a lot of interest out of HS, as this 2013 article notes.

"he has already made a name for himself as one of the most athletic prospects in the country.
That tends to happen when you post some of the combine numbers he does. Ask college coaches everywhere, it is hard to find someone out there who can put together a 4.36 40-yard dash, a 3.90 shuttle, and a vertical leap over 40-inches. That is one explosive package to say the least."

CB Niko Johnson (5-9, 167), a former Henderson State player from Cypress, TX (Cypress Ranch), who A-State had offered out of HS.

Corning OL, and former Razorback Walkon Klint Harvey (6-6, 330).

Holden Byassee, (6-1 227), a LB from Cherry Valley (Cross County).

Luke Sexton(6-2, 280), DS out of Jonesboro (Nettleton).

Jaelyn Jones(6-1, 190), DB from Bryant.

A-State HC said last week he was is still expecting some more players to join their roster in the coming days.

JC transfer Glbert Glidersleeve (5-11, 183) is reportedly finishing up an online course and should be available before the start of the season, and a JC DE is reportedly doing the same thing.

Late JC commits, DT Warwick Marsh (5-10, 315), and Center Allen Byrd (6-1, 300), are not currently with the team, and their status is unknown.

Former Razorback WR Kendrick Edwards II (6-5, 212), and Miami LB Marques Gayot ( 6-1, 222) are practicing with the team, but will sit out 2016.

It has also been reported  that a former Razorback CB, who has enrolled at a JC, could join them and sit out 2016. He is close friends with to Edwards.

And it's great that the state of Arkansas has another quality program that allows for players to excel when they aren't quite up to the level of the SEC.

He should have finished on time!  The Red Wolves need him!!  What's eating Gilbert Gildersleeve?

I'm sure it's nothing that a $500 retainer can't fix.  Contact JackRabbit Hog for payment instructions.

Just behind in his course work, and there are a few more that are trying to finish up their JC  work.

Good thing for them is had these players not been behind they would not have been available to even try and get in.

Had hoped the UCA fans would keep us up to-date on the rebuilding but very talented Bears fall camp.

Really not much on their message board either..

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.
