Transplanted Californian receives offer during Arkansas cookout

Less than one month since moving to Northwest Arkansas junior offensive lineman Joey Su’a has landed a scholarship offer from Arkansas after attending the Razorbacks’ cookout on Saturday.

Offensive line coach Cody Kennedy told Su’a about the offer.

“We were having a meeting and he gave me a scholarship,” Su’a said. “I didn’t hear at first but when he said it again I was happy.”

Su’a, 6-4, 319 pounds of Bentonville, arrived in Arkansas on July 11 from California after his mother transferred to work in logistics in Walmart’s E-commerce division. He started as a freshman and sophomore for Adelanto High School.
