Northside junior Dreyden Norwood preparing for breakout season
Fort Smith Northside quarterback Dre Norwood drops back to pass Saturday, June 15, 2019, during the Alma 7-on-7 Showcase football tournament at Citizens Bank Field in Alma. SPRINGDALE — The former Arkansas football staff missed on landing former Fort Smith Northside's Tre Norwood a few years ago, but the new coaching staff is all over the next family standout.
Arkansas was the first to offer Grizzlies junior quarterback/defensive back Dreyden Norwood (6-1, 180 pounds, 4.5 seconds in the 40-yard dash) on Feb. 11. Dreyden is the cousin of Tre Norwood, a starting cornerback at Oklahoma.
Dreyden Norwood picked up an offer from Mississippi State one month after Arkansas offered.
