FAYETTEVILLE — Last year’s inaugural early signing period presented some challenges for Arkansas head coach Chad Morris.
Morris arrived from SMU on Dec. 7 - 13 days before college football's first ever early signing period began.
Although Morris flipped Ashdown cornerback Ladarrius Bishop from Mississippi State and landed Fordyce defensive tackle Billy Ferrell away from Alabama and others during those 13 days, his first Razorback recruiting class ended up being ranked 51st nationally, according to ESPN.
Speaking at SEC Media Days in Atlanta, Morris said he would have liked the early signing period to have started in 2018, instead of 2017.
