- Who shined during goal-line drills at Arkansas football's 5th practice?
FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas football unveiled a new drill in its fifth practice of fall camp.
For the first time this month, the Razorbacks did an 11-on-11 goal-line period during the 45 minutes that were open to the local media on Monday, Aug. 10. The first-team and second-team offenses lined up at the 10-yard line, advancing 3 yards further for each successive play regardless of the result. KJ Jackson worked with the starters, while AJ Hill ran with the second unit as the quarterbacks continue to rotate each day.

The first-team offense had three positive runs. Sutton Smith gained 5, before Cam Settles had a 2-yard run and finished the series off with a 4-yard score. Settles is in a competition with Jasper Parker and other young running backs to be third in line for carries behind Smith and Braylen Russell.

The second-team offense wasn't as sharp.
A trio of defensive linemen in Xadavien Sims, Antonio Sandel-Bascomb and Danny Beale III surrounded Hill for a sack on the first play, and the quarterback didn't gain much on a read-option with the second snap. Hill dropped the third snap, but quickly picked up the football and threw a 4-yard touchdown to Donovan Faupel.
Dating back to the spring, Hill and Faupel have shown good chemistry when they share the field.

Below are other observations from another steamy practice. The temperature was 96 degrees when things got started at 3:15 p.m.
Other notes Arkansas football's practice on Aug. 10
-
Hill threw a should-have-been interception that was dropped by Shelton Lewis during an 11-on-11 tempo drill. Lewis jumped a slant route to Courtney Crutchfield and had both hands on the ball, but could not secure the catch.
-
Jackson had a high miss when targeting Jamari Hawkins during that same drill, but he also threw a short touchdown to CJ Brown on a well-designed play that got Brown open in the flat.
-
For the second consecutive day, Arkansas shuffled its offensive line in 11-on-11 drills. Sophomore center Kash Courtney worked with the starters in the goal-line period, while Adam Hawkes was at right tackle in the tempo set.
-
Monte Harrison lined up as a tight end with the first-team offense on the second play of goal line. He came in motion and was a decoy as Jackson handed the ball to settles. The 31-year old former baseball player has played wide receiver since he arrived on campus before the 2024 season.
-
Antonio Jordan had a catch and made a defender miss in the tempo period. The 6-foot-6 wide receiver might demand playing time if he becomes a threat as a ball-carrier.
-
The defensive line continues to shuffle, and the most intriguing position battle outside of the quarterback spot might be at defensive tackle. Hunter Osborne, David Oke and Carlon Jones are the three most likely options to start.
-
Charlie Collins was the first-team JACK linebacker on Monday. He's battling with Steven Soles Jr. and Jamonta Waller at the position.
