Thanks to Barry Odom and his ties to his former team at Missouri, Arkansas’ defensive line will look a lot more stout heading into the 2021 season.
A couple weeks ago, former Missouri Tiger Markell Utsey, a gradate transfer tackle, chose to play his final season for the Hogs. So did fellow transfer John Ridgeway, a 6’6″ 325 pound man mountain from Northern Illinois who chose Arkansas over Texas, Michigan, USC and more.
Ridgeway could very well start in 2021.
Then, on Monday night, another Missouri Tiger announced he was heading to play at Arkansas under his former head coach, Barry Odom.
