Early offer gets highly recruited WR on campus, interested in Arkansas

FRISCO, Texas — Chad Morris' staff was the first to offer highly recruited receiver Elijah Higgins while at SMU in the spring of last year, and he hasn’t forgotten that.

Higgins, 6-3, 215 of Austin (Texas) Bowie, visited the Razorbacks on June 16 and was able to catch up with the staff and spend time with receivers coach Justin Stepp and receivers graduate assistant Kelvin Bolden.

“That was great,” Higgins said. “I talked to the coaches at SMU. That was my first offer, so I had to take a trip out there and check out for myself.
