FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas got younger and thinner at defensive end in a hurry.
Going into the season opener, the Razorbacks' ends were led by three seniors -- Dorian Gerald and Gabe Richardson as starters and Jamario Bell -- with true freshmen Mataio Soli and Zach Williams also in the rotation.
For last week's SEC opener at Ole Miss, Richardson was the only end who had played prior to this season.
