Arkansas linebackers coach Michael Scherer made his second trip to the Dallas area to check on 2024 linebacker target Payton Pierce on Saturday.
Pierce, 6-2, 225 pounds, of Lovejoy High School in Lucas, Texas, took on South Oak Cliff in the 5A-II Region II final at Frisco’s Ford Center with Scherer on the sidelines.
Scherer also watched linebacker commitment Jordan Crook and Duncanville defeat DeSoto 38-20 at the Ford Center on Saturday.
He and tight ends coach Dowell Loggains visited Lovejoy before the Razorbacks’ 20-10 victory over Texas A&M on Sept. 25. Arkansas is also recruiting Pierce’s teammate and sophomore receiver Parker Livingstone.
