Recourse unavailable for Jalen Catalon

FAYETTEVILLE — The frustration in University of Arkansas Coach Sam Pittman’s voice seemed apparent Monday.

The status of top playmaker Jalen Catalon had not changed two days after the star safety was ejected for targeting in Saturday’s 27-24 loss against LSU.

Catalon’s ejection in the fourth quarter was upheld by SEC video review official Ken Switzer, carrying with it an automatic disqualification for the first half of the Razorbacks’ next game. Arkansas (3-5) was scheduled to face Missouri (3-3) on Saturday in Columbia, Mo., but that game was postponed on Monday due to covid-19 issues in the Arkansas program.
