FAYETTEVILLE — One receiver after the next continues to show up big during team periods for the Arkansas Razorbacks, confirming Coach Sam Pittman’s recent remark that the receiving corps is the most improved unit on the team since spring.

Wednesday was Ketron Jackson Jr.’s turn in the media viewing segment of practice. The 6-2 sophomore ran a post from the right flank, tracked past safety Myles Slusher and hauled in a long touchdown pass from KJ Jefferson to put an exclamation point on the first offense’s “fastball” starts inside the Walker Pavilion.
