"Arkansas has another option to potentially replace the outgoing Brandon Allen next fall,"

Talk about a stretch.

Would really love to see this kid do well, especially if he has the same kind of "fire" and "grit" his grand daddy did. Jim was one tough hombre as well as being one heck of a leader!!

I love Legacy recruits that will do anything to be a Razorback.

I'd prefer they be 5*!

Said he was Jim Lindsey's son?

[Potosihog]

Wow.  I thought Lyndy Lindsey was Jim's son.   Wouldn't this be Jim's grandson?

Sounds more reasonable.

He's a grandson, but still a legacy as Lindy played.

[1highhog]

Anyone know what kind of speed he has or if he played any other position in High School?  With our QB depth there's no way he's going to break into the rotation there.  But maybe he can fit into another position if he's up to the challenge.

I would say a son or grandson would qualify as a legacy. Welcome aboard Jack!

I don't know his speed, but he did not run hardly any at Springdale.  Appears to be a 3 sport athlete though.

No

The son of Jim Lindsey's son Lyndy.

We had a walkon qb a while back who was pretty good for our team. Brian Beuhner (sp?) He actually looked pretty good during spring games and was the holder for us on special teams while providing some good scout team qb'ing.

[tophawg19]

can the kid play well enough to see the field at some position ? special teams maybe ?

[lstewart]

Jack is Lyndy's son, Jim's grandson. He is tall and slim at this time. Probably can add 20 lbs pretty easily with the Hogs training program. He took a pounding playing QB at Springdale, as he did not have much talent around him. Very tough kid.... I saw him take blindside shots in the pocket that I could not believe he would get up from. Felt kind of sorry for him during the season, since it was not really much he could do with the huge talent gap between Springdale and the other 7A West schools. Seems to be an athletic kid. Starts on the basketball team and is a good 3 point shooter. I assumed he would be a solid DII prospect for someone like Ark Tech or UAM. Certainly has the DNA to develop in a few years. Probably not fast enough to make an impact at another position for the Hogs, but probably as athletic as most of the other Hog QB's. Give him a couple of years in the weight room and he might be an athletic 6 3, 210 qb. Glad to see him get a shot.

Got to keep the Lindsay money in the program jus saying

Watched his highlight tape.  To me he has some upside.  Is he a late bloomer?  How long has he been 6-4?  His offensive line might have been the worst I have ever seen

[lstewart]

I agree that he might very well be a late bloomer, and might grow. His dad is huge and looks like he could still play tight end today. Agree that he had no help at Springdale, so I don't really know what he would look like in a better offense. He could very well grow into a prospect with a little time and weight training. All I learned from watching him at Springdale is that he can take a hit in the pocket. He pretty much got blasted every time he dropped back.

Does make you wonder under the circumstances what the kid might have done if he'd actually had some talent and help around him. Just from that standpoint I like to see him succeed on the Hill.

Would love to see him do well.  Wooo Pig!    :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback:

I thought the same thing.

Don't worry. They get plenty from their renters to spend................................

[Cinco de Hogo]

2018, is there real competition for the starting QB job or will it just be handed to Lindsey?  LOL controversy brewing already.

Anyway like that choose to walks vs going to some small college...as if a Lindsey would do that.

Coached by Zak Clark there at Springdale. His first HC gig. I'm neighbors with his folks in Conway.
