FAYETTEVILLE — Independence, Kan., Community College defensive tackle and Arkansas pledge Emmit Gooden (6-4, 320 pounds) will mark an accomplishment off his list Tuesday.
“I actually am graduating on Tuesday so I will be good to go,” Gooden said of his being a mid-term graduate and enrolling in January.
New Arkansas head football coach Chad Morris and his staff have not contacted Gooden yet, but they have sent word through former Razorback defensive line coach John Scott that they will be calling soon.
“Coach Scott did share with me that Arkansas’ new staff is interested and supposed to be calling me very soon,” Gooden said.
