Experienced depth won’t be dramatically affected by loss
Noah Gatlin has made the decision to not continue his football path after dealing with multiple injuries over his first couple of seasons with Arkansas.
The news was first reported by Tom Murphy of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
Gatlin is the only offensive lineman in Arkansas’ two-deep depth chart during the 2020 season that will not return in 2021.
In addition to Dalton Wagner at right tackle and Clary at right guard, the Razorbacks will also have left tackle Myron Cunningham, left guard Brady Latham, center Ricky Stromberg and all of their backups.
Gatlin also missed most of this year’s Auburn game because of a lower left leg injury suffered on the first play, then didn’t play well, suffered a concussion and Wagner took over at right tackle.
He missed the entire 2019 season because of a torn ACL suffered on the first day of fall camp.
Gatlin showed promise as a freshman during the 2018 season, playing in four games and starting two early in the season. He was expected to compete for a starting spot at tackle in 2019 before suffering the season-ending knee injury on the very first day of fall camp.
The Razorbacks will start spring practice Tuesday afternoon.

Ole Miss blocks Hogs in first round of SEC Tournament
GREENVILLE, S.C. — Arkansas started slow and never really quite figured out how to get out of the mud in a 69-60 loss to Ole Miss on Thursday night in the SEC Tournament.
It’s the first time since 2017 the Razorbacks (19-8) haven’t won at least one game in Greenville.
Chelsea Dungee led the Hogs on the scoresheet once again, going for 22 points in the loss. Destiny Slocum and Amber Ramirez also both got into double-figures, going for 13 and 10 points, respectively.
Shakira Austin of Ole Miss stole the show in this one, though, as she scored 29 points and pulled down 13 rebounds.
Turning point
Ole Miss jumped out to a lead in this one, as the Rebels led the Hogs 17-7 at the end of one. Arkansas couldn’t throw a rock in the ocean in the first, going 2-17 from the floor as a team.
The second and third quarters were a different story though, as the Hogs trailed Ole Miss by just one after Slocum splashed a deep three to end the third period.
The Hogs struggled again in the fourth, though, shooting 3-17 from the field and making only two of their 11 shots from beyond the arc.
Austin scored six points and grabbed five rebounds in the final frame to help ice the game away.
Hogs highlights
• Dungee went for 20+ yet again, her 17th time this season getting over the 20-point mark.
• Dungee also had a team-high three steals.
• Slocum played a well-rounded game – she dished four assists and pulled down five rebounds.
• Erynn Barnum led the Hogs on the glass, grabbing seven boards.
