Houston running back bonds with Traylor

University of Arkansas Coach Chad Morris and associate head coach and running backs coach Jeff Traylor were the first to extend a scholarship offer to running back target John Gentry, and he hasn't forgotten.

"It was big to me, especially when they stayed in contact," Gentry said. "With them talking to me everyday, I know they're making me a priority."

Gentry, 5-11, 180 pounds of Houston North Shore narrowed his list of schools to Arkansas, UNLV, Houston, Utah State and Wyoming on Tuesday. He and others are expected to officially visit Fayetteville on Wednesday through June 14.
