Texas '21 LB looking to experience Arkansas' cookout

Highly regarded junior linebacker Clayton Smith is looking to soak in what Arkansas has to offer while attending Friday's Fall Kickoff Cookout.

“I’d like to hear their plans for me and get a taste of going to school there,” Smith said. “(I'd like to) see the city, meet the players, build a relationship with the coaching staff and take it from there.”

Smith, 6-4, 220 pounds, of Texarkana, Texas, has 10 scholarship offers from schools such as Arkansas, Texas, TCU, LSU, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Ole Miss and others.

He is being recruited by associate head coach and running backs coach Jeff Traylor, who has secured four commitments from east Texas in the 2020 class.
