FAYETTEVILLE — The coronavirus pandemic has kept Pinson (Ala.) Pinson Valley tailback Kenji Christian (6-2, 200, 4.58 40-yard dash) from making a visit to Arkansas, but he remains interested in getting to Fayetteville as soon as possible.
Christian, a former high school teammate of Auburn quarterback Bo Nix, is rated a 3-star prospect and the nations’ No. 59 running back by 247 Sports.
His relationship with Arkansas running backs coach Jimmy Smith is a key factor in his interest in the Razorbacks, who offered him on Feb. 11.
“They want me to come in and play running back right away, and I developed a great relationship with Coach Jimmy,” Christian said.
