LITTLE ROCK — Sans a Plan B for this week’s column, there was some muttering aimed Dorian Gerald’s way when the highly touted defensive end was not mentioned Friday morning in a lengthy article that included a look at depth on Arkansas’ defensive front.
Considering Gerald’s reputation and the writer’s thoroughness, the immediate conclusion was that the athlete was a no show. Turns out, Gerald was a day late leaving California. Even when he arrived, Gerald was busy with paperwork and did not participate in the first practice Friday.
“We hope to get him out on the field at some point in the near future,” Arkansas coach Chad Morris said late Friday night.
