Memphis linebacker commitment Christopher Russell made an unofficial visit to Arkansas for the Alabama game and he’s glad he did.
“The facilities are great,” Russell said. “I didn’t get to see everything because I had to get back so fast, but the things I did see I liked. I like the coaches.”
Russell, 6-1, 220 pounds of Dyersburg, Tennessee, received an offer from Arkansas on June 21 and has others from Memphis, Georgia Tech, Middle Tennessee State and Tennessee-Martin.
As a junior, Russell had 95 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, 7 sacks, 4 quarterback hurries, 15 quarterback knockdowns, an interception, 4 pass deflections, 1 forced fumble and 3 recovered fumbles.
