FAYETTEVILLE — Isaiah Nichols is proud of how far he’s come.
But like many athletes who strive to stand out and be among the best at what they do, Nichols is far from satisfied with where he currently stands. And that is saying something, especially when considering the redshirt senior has become one of Arkansas’ top defensive linemen.
A star at Springdale under former Razorbacks quarterback Zak Clark prior to signing with Arkansas, Nichols has been a staple along defensive coordinator Barry Odom’s front this spring.
