All-America QB says trip to Arkansas helps 'in all ways'

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas has put itself firmly in the race for 4-star U.S. Army All-American quarterback Malik Hornsby, who is ranked ninth by ESPN among dual-threat quarterbacks.

Hornsby (6-2, 175 pounds) concluded his official visit to to Fayetteville on Sunday, and the Missouri City (Fort Bend Marshall), Texas, native said he liked what he saw.

"For the last couple of days that I've been at Arkansas, the visit has been great,” Hornsby said. “I enjoyed myself, my family enjoyed themselves. I'm looking forward to talking to (Razorback offensive coordinator Kendal) Briles more often.”

Hornsby, whose list of potential destinations is down to Arkansas, Baylor, Texas A&M and Purdue, has a relationship with Briles that goes back four years to when Briles was coaching at Houston.
