The Arkansas coaching staff has been relentless in pursuing heavily recruited offensive lineman Marcus Tatum of Daytona Beach (Fla.) Mainland, and it's one of the reasons he plans to take an official visit to Fayetteville.
Tatum, 6-6, 260 pounds, has more than 30 offers from schools that include Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Miami, Auburn, Ole Miss and Nebraska. The Razorbacks offered him June 5.
"Just the way the coaching staff has been showing me a lot of love, and the love has never gone down," Tatum said. "It's just increased since they offered me. My messages and talking to them on the phone, it's always really nice.
