FAYETTEVILLE — Everywhere Chad Morris goes around Arkansas these days, he's excited.

The first-year Razorbacks coach has been preaching his excitement since being hired away from SMU last December, doing so at fan clubs, to the media, on social media — and to anyone else who will listen.

He's excited about a talented recruiting class that's taking shape and the weight-room progress Arkansas' players have made since the end of spring practice.

Most of all, he's eager to start his first preseason camp in Arkansas on Friday.

"We're a better football team right now that we were at any point in time since I've gotten here," Morris said.
