WR Morris elevates play, gets hands on scholarship

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- University of Arkansas Coach Chad Morris' decision to award a scholarship to Tyson Morris in August is looking like a pretty sound investment.

Morris has become one of the Razorbacks' most reliable receivers at a position hit hard by injuries.

Going into tonight's Arkansas-Kentucky game, Morris has nine receptions for 118 yards and a touchdown.

"He's made some key catches for us," Chad Morris said. "A young man that's providing great value, and he's maximizing his opportunities when he gets them.

"I think he's a player that has really matured, that has really grown a lot and is understanding the system.
