Chad Morris’ staff made Smith an offer Dec. 22 and Mark Smith, who has joined Morris in Fayetteville, talked with Eddie Smith the next day, according to a report from Recruiting Thursday’s Richard Davenport at WholeHogSports.com.
“He called me and told me they have a whole new staff at Arkansas, and he let me know how much they like me and how they love my film and my height and how I could come in there and play early as a freshman,” Smith told Davenport.
Smith, 6-1, 178, 4.40, has offers from Tennessee, TCU, Missouri, Georgia, Louisville, Ole Miss, Oklahoma State and Mississippi State among the more than 30 he has received.
He committed to TCU in June but reopened his recruiting on Dec. 17.
