As new Arkansas head coach Ryan Silverfield continues assembling his first staff in Fayetteville, one of his top targets may come from one of the nation’s most successful programs. The Razorbacks are pursuing Florida State running backs coach David Johnson, a respected developer of talent with deep recruiting ties throughout the Southeast.
Silverfield has moved quickly in building a staff that blends familiarity with proven experience, and Johnson fits that blueprint perfectly. His résumé matches everything Arkansas is looking for as it tries to stabilize its run game, elevate roster development, and strengthen its presence in key recruiting territories.
