"It has kind of turned into a feeding frenzy," Markuson said. "Having this many committed at this point just hasn't happened for us."
The recent recruiting success has drawn national notice and created a positive feeling around the football team, which reports for preseason camp today. Later in his golf round Monday, Markuson's phone was back out. He spoke with Arkansas coach Houston Nutt and defensive coordinator Reggie Herring, breaking the news and sharing in some brief celebration.
Running back Devin Thomas, of San Antonio, committed on Tuesday, and his pledge was Arkansas' 10th in an 11-day span and 19th overall.
"We were already all hyped up for the season," Markuson said. "This makes it even easier to get excited."
