Despite his recent commitment to Tennessee, offensive lineman Melvin McBride said he still plans to officially visit the University of Arkansas.
He'll probably take the visit Oct. 6 for the Arkansas-Alabama game, in large part because of his relationship with Razorbacks Coach Chad Morris and offensive line coach Dustin Fry.
"We're still very close. We have a close relationship," McBride said. "Like I told them, until signing day anything could change. They said they're still highly interested in me and they still want me to be a Razorback, so I told them things could change."
McBride, 6-4, 318 pounds, of Memphis Whitehaven, is a former basketball player, and the switch in sports has helped him accumulate 18 scholarship offers, including ones from Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisville, South Carolina, Florida and others.
