Thats a great pickup. We were on him hot and heavy but he dropped us early in the process.

He may end up playing on the defensive side of the ball. In an interview last night he said as much.

The most interesting thing he said in the whole interview is that there is a poster board in the training facility that shows plans to enclose the North endzone of Donald W. Reynolds stadium within the next two years. That's huge.

You are going to have a stout class that is for sure. Can you upload that picture of the stadium addition. I think you guys already have a great stadium; I am jealous because regrettably that is the worst part of our program IMO (compared to other SEC schools) (save Houston Nutt which is the worst to most Arky fans)

I wish I had a picture. No one does. I actually think that Lance Ray let it slip, because the University hasn't announced any addition yet. I'm guessing it's going to just be a lower level addition with luxury boxes on top, the University is not going to scrap the Jumbo Tron or move it. So I'm guessing the addition will probably add 15,000 more seats. But if they really wanted to they could go with bleachers instead of chair backs and make it 20. The U of A doesn't do things like that often though. Up until Bama's most recent renovation to Bryant Denny, Arkansas had more luxury boxes than every SEC school in every sporting venue. But keeping that "record" intact has been difficult fighting with UK and Bama in basketball and football facility wars respectively in terms of quality.

some real stud in this class there "winners"

I saw in the newspaper a 2010 DL commit out of shreveport i believe, anyone one rivals or scout have any information about this guy?

Defensive tackle Brandon Jackson, 6-4, 270, 4.95, of Shreveport Evangel, has orally committed to Arkansas

Jackson made an unofficial visit to Arkansas for the Tulsa game. He said Ole Miss, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Kansas, Louisiana Tech and others are showing interest.
Jackson said he talked to Arkansas assistant coach Bobby Allen about two weeks ago.
“He sounded Ok with it but he wanted me to make sure I keep my eyes on Arkansas,” Jackson said.
Arkansas defensive back Ramon Broadway is Jackson’s cousin.

2008 Stats:
2008 (Jr.) 113 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, 6 sacks, 1 fumble recovery

Great class shaping up, when is Wingo Jr supposed to commit? I'm hoping Arkansas gets him, but if not I think B.Green will do fine.

Also next year we should have a real shot at a top 10 recruiting class, lots of in-state talent, and top-tier talent outside the state showing interest. Petrino just needs to get us to a decent bowl next year, that always helps recruiting!

Great job btw Prodigy.

He has an official visit to campus on the 9th of this month. If he commits I would expect it to come shortly after that, or shortly after his visit to Alabama, which is roughly a week later.

Actually Wingo visits Illinois after us and then a possible 5th visit to Bama or someone else.

You are correct, I just don't he him committing to Illinois. (now watch him go do it)

He has to stay in arkansas, man that'd be awesome.

I know he's class of 2011 but he's a beast, just a freak of nature in strength.

Harvill is a monster. I've filmed his games before. He scares a lot of people when he's on the field. And he's not the only player on that team that impresses me. Keihl Frazier is a straight up baller. He'll be a 4 star athlete or QB. And he loves the University of Arkansas. 2010 and 2011 will be classes that dwarf the current one in terms of quality in-state recruits.

From what I've read on other boards it's probably Arkansas or Missouri for Wingo.
