Taylor Head loves to compete more than just about anything.

2023/11/13

When you come from a big basketball family like Arkansas grad transfer Chandler Lawson, you’re always dealing with expectations. Lawson left his hometown of Memphis—where his two older brothers played—for a fresh start at Oregon. After two years with the Ducks, he returned home to the Tigers, where the pressure was familiar. If that fan passion sounds familiar, then Lawson should be a perfect fit at Arkansas, a place where fans cheer as loud for hustle and energy plays as they do for a big shot

2023/11/06

If you had to pick one word to describe Tramon Mark, it’d be winner. Mark won 66 games at Houston, and his penchant for coming through in the big moments helped the Cougars advance to a Sweet 16 and a Final Four. He averaged 9 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists for parts of three seasons with the Cougars, while missing most of his sophomore season with an injury.

2023/10/30

It’s been a long road to the top of college basketball for Denijay Harris. Underrecruited out of high school, Harris went the JUCO route, but after just two games, a major injury would end his next two seasons of hoops, and it was a struggle just to make it back. Harris would transfer to Southern Miss, and finally returned to game action in 2020. He would go on to help lead that program to a Sun Belt title last season. Seeking a fresh start, Harris entered the transfer portal and landed at Arkansas,

Jeremiah Davenport has seen what an Eric Musselman coached team can do. A grad transfer from Cincinnati, Davenport knew this was the place for him to continue his long journey in basketball … one that started from a young age in a family that was always around the sport. His late father—who tragically passed away in 2021—had a major impact on his life, and he carries those lessons with him today. Davenport’s drive helped him become a member of Cincinnati’s 1,000-points club, and he’s looking forward

Andrew Armstrong has had quite the journey to Arkansas and the SEC—college football’s grandest stage. Underrecruited, Armstrong went to D2 Texas A&M-Commerce… where he spent four years, but didn’t even play the first two after a redshirt season and a lost season due to Covid. Then, he excelled. Now, Armstrong has emerged as a go-to target for quarterback KJ Jefferson and the Arkansas offense. And make no mistake, this was always his plan.

2023/09/18

Few Razorback football players through the years were as exciting to watch as Felix Jones. Alongside Darren McFadden, he formed one of the greatest backfields in college football history. Jones still holds the Arkansas school record for career yards per rush, was a First-Team All-American in 2007, and was part of some of the most memorable Razorback moments of the past quarter century. And though it was McFadden who got the spotlight as a two-time Heisman finalist, the duo was better together. In

If you find yourself trying to figure out who No. 40 is on Arkansas’ defensive line this season, you won’t be alone. Landon Jackson looks like a different person. The junior is entering his second season with the Razorbacks after transferring from LSU, has added 40-plus pounds to his frame in the offseason.

2023/08/28

It’s hard to believe that Sam Pittman is entering his fourth season as Arkansas’ head coach. In many ways, what he’s done in such a short amount of time has been remarkable, turning the program around and restoring Razorback pride throughout the state with the program’s first nine-win season in a decade, and back-to-back bowl wins for only the second time in school history.

Gritty. Tough. Hard-nosed. All words to describe Arkansas co-defensive coordinator Marcus Woodson. It just so happens they also describe Sam Pittman and the Razorback football program. Which makes Woodson and Arkansas a match in Hog Heaven. Woodson grew up in a hard-working, blue-collar family. That mentality helped him earn a scholarship at Ole Miss. And even though his playing career was cut short by injuries, he’s carried that same work ethic into his coaching career. In this episode, we get to

Now, he’s in his fourth season coaching running backs at Arkansas, and serves as Sam Pittman’s associate head coach. Whether it’s coaching up Rocket Sanders or heading out on the recruiting trail, his background as a high school coach serves him well.
