Since 2006 the Razorbacks have started 6, 7, 5, 7, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7 and 6 white players. They look to start 6 in 2016.

Pretty disappointing from a Bielema lead team. I was expecting him to whiten up the Arkansas program more than he has. His impact on this program has been minimal.

Players to look out for include WR Cody Hollist, QB Ricky Towne, QB Rafe Peavy, DB Reid Miller.

Drew Morgan is the best WR in the SEC - better than the overrated LSU prospects yet for obvious reasons he gets no respect or credit for his talent and ability. Austin Allen is Brandon Allen's brother - hopefully he picks up where his brother left off.



Offense
QB - Austin Allen
WR - Drew Morgan
LG - Hjalte Froholdt
C - Fran Ragnow
RT - Dan Skipper

Defense
LB - Brooks Ellis

I respect all the work you guys are doing but just wanted to point out from what I read db Reid Miller is listed as a second string corner as of now and they have another young corner in Ryder Lucas who may garner some playing time in the next few years.

Drew Morgan is definitely the most talented yet underrated wideout in the SEC! I fail to see how these LSU wideouts have such high draft grades when they have noodle armed black qbs throwing them the ball and as result not much production!

-Skipper is a huge RT. 6'9 giant will be playing on Sunday's!

-Brooks Ellis lone white on defense and is their best defensive player. We've all seen that before..

Arkansas would be a team to root for if they had more white talent on defensive depth chart. They had a pretty good recruiting class from our perspective but will probably be a couple years before some of those guys break the lineup !

I just watched a highlight video of Morgan and they post his 40 time at 4.86. Friggin ridiculous. I remember posting on Morgan when he was in high school and I thought he was a beter lock-down corner than wr. Plus his highlights suggest he is more of a mid 4.55 guy. How could he beat so many SEC affletes if he ran a 4.8?

That has gotta be a typo. He's been running4.5s since his high school days. Just another way of slighting white athletes, posting BS 40 times.

One last thing about Morgan. He is unbelievably elusive after the catch. I hyped Daniel Braverman coming out of high school but never got to see him play at Western Michigan. Braverman is an absolute beast making people miss as I got to watch his highlights from last year. Morgan has that same ability. If he runs a good 40 time at either the combine or his pro day he will get drafted but probably the 5th round at best.

Good to know - I just go off the ourlads depth chart and the preview magazines. My goal is to just get these all done before the season and than people will update the thread as the season goes along. I can't get into reading the spring prospectus on every team unfortunately because their aren't enough members who sign up to assist with the previews.

I believe we might have one more white starter on O-line, as depth charts list Ragnow as right guard now, and Jake Raulerson as starting center. Not sure I noticed four white O-linemen in the TCU game, have to watch out for this in the A&M game.
