A Florida defensive prospect will visit Arkansas on Friday thanks to the recruiting efforts of special teams coordinator Scott Fountain.

Junior 4-star defensive end Wilky Denaud, 6-4, 245 pound, of John Carroll High School in Fort Pierce, has 16 offers from schools such as Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi State, Miami, South Carolina, Penn State, Nebraska and other programs.

He and Fountain talk often.

“We've been on the phone a few times, once or twice out of the week,” Denaud said.
