Arkansas football has not been where it stands now in a decade. Freshmen who will join the team the next time the Razorbacks play a regular-season game would have been in kindergarten, or younger, the last time Arkansas was a national power.
The Hogs, regardless of the outcome in the Outback Bowl on January 1, have had a season that exceeded even the homers’ expectations. How much it continues into 2022 depends on a number of factors, including potential player and coach exits in the offseason.
For now, we don’t want to focus on such matters. Instead, let’s consider the players who are assured to be back, barring catastrophe.
In this series, Next Hogs Up, we take a shot at projecting Arkansas’ depth chart, position by position for the 2022 season.
