DL Andy Boykin commits to Arkansas

Defensive lineman Andy Boykin's relationship with Arkansas coach Sam Pittman was a primary factor in his decision to commit to the Razorbacks on Sunday during his official visit to Fayetteville.

“He’s a great, genuine guy," Boykin said of Pittman. "There’s no fake and funny stuff about him. A lot of people can relate to that because he’s done a lot for a lot of people. Like when he left Georgia, he had an offensive line commit that wanted to de-commit, and he told him, ‘Stay with them. That’s where you belong.’ A lot of coaches don’t do that because they want them to follow him, but it just says what type of person he is.
