Hogs offer in-state linebacker

Arkansas has extended a scholarship offer to in-state linebacker JT Towers.

Towers, 6-4, 210, of Joe T. Robinson, also has offers from Illinois State, Tulsa, Army, Louisiana and others. He recorded 171 tackles, 47 tackles for loss, 11 sacks and 5 forced fumbles as a senior in his first season playing linebacker.

"It really meant a lot to me as much as I've had to go through, especially with recruiting and missing my sophomore year," Towers said. "It's a lifelong dream. Nothing really feels better. It just makes all those days of 5 a.m. workouts and all that worth it, so no better feeling.
