Hogs offer Missouri D-lineman, visit in the works
Junior defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo had a better-than-average Tuesday when he received his first two SEC offers from Missouri and Arkansas.
Wingo, 6-1, 275 pounds, of DeSmet Jesuit in St. Louis, received an offer from the Tigers in the morning, and the Razorbacks offered shortly afterwards. He said Arkansas defensive coordinator Barry Odom was looking at him while at Missouri.
“When Coach Odom was there they seemed interested, but never offered,” Wingo said. “I feel with him getting the defensive coordinator job, and he would directly be working with me, he pulled the trigger and offered. He felt that I would fit in their program well.”
