Cornerback Tay’shawn Wilson made the trip to Arkansas to impress and impress he did during Saturday’s prospect camp, running 4.28 seconds in the 40-yard dash.
Wilson, 5-9 1/4, 170 pounds, of Mayde Creek High School in Houston, had 19 offers from schools such as Baylor, Texas, Nebraska, Colorado, Kansas, Georgia Tech, Houston, Marshall and others prior to attending the Arkansas camp.
When Wilson ran the 4.28 time, Arkansas coaches were in disbelief.
“They told me to run it again,” Wilson said.
Instead of two coaches timing him, five gathered around the finish line. Of the five stop watches, his slowest time read 4.
