4-star Adonis Otey's coach raves about his versatility demeanor and maturity

The UA landed the commitment of one of the top cornerback prospects in the nation Wednesday when Adonis Otey pledged to the Hogs.

Otey, 6-0, 170 pounds, of Blackman High School in Murfreesboro, Tenn., picked the Razorbacks over scholarship offers from Ohio State, Auburn, Alabama, Tennessee, Florida, Louisville, Oklahoma, Ole Miss and others.

"They're getting a very versatile athlete," Blackman Coach Kit Hartsfield said. "He's a big, long, physical corner, but he's not just limited to playing corner. He can play nickel, he can play safety. He plays quarterback for us, and he played receiver the other day and caught a touchdown pass so he's a jack of all trades.
