FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas fans have been waiting on last Saturday's version of Deatrich Wise Jr. for a couple of years.
The 6-5, 272-pound junior, described by Arkansas Coach Bret Bielema as the blueprint for how you draw up a defensive end physically, has worked through injuries and a lack of focus to reach last week's apex in Baton Rouge.
