Hogs Set to Throw Curveballs For New DC Smith

[Mike Irwin]

Media visitors watching Thursday's spring football practice in the University of Arkansas' Walker Pavilion noticed safety Allen Turner charging through the middle of the Hogs' offensive line a few times during eleven on eleven action.

"What's it like battling in there, getting hit by the guards?" Turner was asked following the workout.

"It's a little different," the 201 pound Turner admitted. "I just got to make sure I come in low because they're big guys and if they get a hold of me it can go all wrong."

New defensive coordinator Robb Smith admits he likes to toss in a few curveballs from time to time when it comes to pressuring opposing quarterbacks and running backs. Smith was asked about the presence of safeties like Turner in areas of the defense normally populated by linebackers.

Good we were so vanilla last year I started calling what the Offense was going to do and over 70 % of the time I got the opponent's play call right.
