'Earn everything' the fresh mantra for Morris

FAYETTEVILLE — After a 2-10 season, Arkansas has opened spring practice with a mantra that is as much physical as it is metaphorical: "Earn everything."

Coach Chad Morris will go into his second year with the Razorbacks insisting that every member of the team from the quarterback to the equipment staff gives their best.

"There was one thing that we wanted to come out of spring with, and that is we want to become more fundamentally sound in all three phases: offense, defense and special teams," Morris said.

In a literal sense, "earn everything" refers to Morris' refusal to allow players and staff to wear official Razorback gear and equipment until they earn it.
