FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas quarterbacks didn't take a single snap from under center during the Razorbacks' first scrimmage of the spring last Saturday.
Joe Craddock, Arkansas' first-year offensive coordinator, said not to mistake the Razorbacks' offense for one exclusive to the shotgun, but last Saturday did provide an indication of the preferred look for the new coaching staff under Chad Morris.
The Craddock/Morris offense is based in the shotgun and includes a number of draws and screens that feature the running backs, often in a two-back set. Craddock, who joined Morris at Arkansas after three seasons at SMU, said he prefers shotgun sets because they allow a quarterback and running backs to get a better pre-snap view of the defense.
