FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas Coach Bret Bielema announced Tuesday the hiring of John Scott, an assistant defensive line coach with the New York Jets, to serve as the Razorbacks defensive line coach.
Scott, 41, brings recruiting connections in the South and experience in the 3-4 scheme to Bielema's staff for new defensive coordinator Paul Rhoads.
"With our transition to the 3-4 scheme, John was a candidate that I came across early in the process," Bielema said in a news release. "After his interview and further research on his familiarity with the 3-4, he rose to the top and will be a great addition to our defensive staff.
