Yesterday, news outlets in Arkansas including SB Nation’s own Arkansas Fight, reported that Damon Mitchell has planned to transfer from the Arkansas football program. Mitchell, a New Jersey native who played at Cedar Creek HS, is the older brother of Scarlet Knight wide receiver Ahmir Mitchell, who himself transferred from Michigan, and will suit up for Rutgers next season.
What about Ahmir’s brother? Damon was recruited by none other than Chris Ash himself when he was defensive coordinator at Wisconsin and Arkansas, where Mitchell actually signed, so he knows Damon’s abilities on the field well.
