Boyd extends UA run another year

FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas got an early Christmas present on the same day it named a new offensive coordinator as top tailback Rakeem Boyd announced he was returning for his senior season.

Boyd announced his return with a social media post not long after Kendal Briles was announced as Coach Sam Pittman's hire for the offensive coordinator position.

"After talking to my family and coaches, I have made a decision that it is best for me to not enter the 2020 NFL Draft and come back to the University of Arkansas for my senior season and to finish my education," Boyd wrote.
