Former MLB outfielder commits to Arkansas football

The Arkansas Razorbacks got perhaps one of the most intriguing prospects to join the football program Tuesday, as former Miami Marlins and Los Angeles Angels outfielder Monte Harrison committed to play wide receiver for the Hogs, a team spokesperson confirmed to HawgBeat. Harrison, who is 28-years-old, will join the Razorbacks as a preferred walk-on at a position where he was rated by Rivals as a four-star in the class of 2014. At that time, Arkansas was offered for his football services, as he was recruited by former assistants Jim Cheney and Michael Smith.
