FAYETTEVILLE — One of the best looking players on the Arkansas football team is now playing like he looks. Teammates noticed this spring and voted Santos Ramirez one of the four captains this week.
There wasn't a lot of chances to really see what Santos Ramirez has changed in the final practice of spring on Saturday afternoon at Walker Pavilion. There was rarely any full contact and no tackling to the ground. That's how to see what a strong safety can do to make a defense work.
But the idea that Ramirez was voted captain – along with Austin Allen, Frank Ragnow and Kevin Richardson – caught my attention.
