Family ties keeping West Mesquite running back interested in Hogs

Mesquite, Texas, West Mesquite 2020 three-star running back Ty Jordan recently talked about his offer to Arkansas and what it means to him.

“Arkansas is huge because of the family ties to the area,” Jordan said. “Most of my family is diehard Razorback fans.”

How his recruitment is going so far: “Recruitment is steady at the moment. Expect it to pick back up once dead period is over.”

The relationship with the Arkansas coaching staff: “The relationship I have with the staff is strong.”

His strengths on the field: “I’m a versatile player and not just a running back. I can get in the slot and make you have nightmares.”

On the upcoming unofficial visit to Arkansas: “I plan on visiting Arkansas again within the next few months … don’t know when, but it’ll be soon.”

How he feels on the relationship with the Arkansas coaching staff: “Coach (Jeff) Traylor, coach (Chad) Morris and coach (Julian) Griffin are my guys. I can talk to them about anything I feel like.”
