You always need competition.

I confirmed today he is the son of our family internist. Trust me he does not need a scholarship. One of the Top Docs in town.

i think he's a 2020 but could be 2021:

Quote:After announcing his intent to transfer from Arkansas’ football program in mid-December, former Razorbacks receiver Jordan Jones has found his transfer destination.

Jones, a native of Smackover, committed to Cincinnati on Saturday in a post on his Twitter account.

“Today is an awesome day for my family and especially for me,” Jones wrote. “This has been one of the longest transitions that I’ve had to endure throughout my athletic career. I want to take the time to thank the U of A, my coaches and teammates for my time here.

“This process has been humbling, yet eye-opening,” he continued. “We have prayed nonstop for God to direct my path and to put me in a place where I can flourish. As it got closer to decision time, the one thing that stuck in my mind was another opportunity to play for my first college (offensive coordinator) Dan Enos … who has always stuck by my side.”

Enos, who served as Arkansas' offensive coordinator from 2015-17 under former coach Bret Bielema, was hired as Cincinnati's running backs coach in March.

Jones did not play in the Razorbacks' 2019 season after undergoing surgery on his ankle. He played in 22 games the two seasons before and caught 37 passes for 593 yards and four touchdowns.

Jones redshirted as a true freshman in 2016 and likely could have two seasons of eligibility remaining with the Bearcats.

A four-star recruit out of Smackover High School, Jones was a consensus top-100 receiver nationally by ESPN, Rivals and 247 Sports. He was also rated the No. 4 prospect in Arkansas, according to 247 Sports.

Jones initially chose the Razorbacks over a scholarship offer from Tulsa.

Will be interesting to see if he gets a 5th year for missing 2019 due to the injury. Put up good numbers as a rFreshman including 4 catches for 72 yards and a TD against Alabama. Clearly has talent so hopefully the staff can get the most out of him and we see at least solid QB play.

Depends on what his redshirt year was for...unfortunately we've been on both sides of that ruling.

2019 was a legit injury, but to get a 6th year you have to have lost two seasons to injury. They would need medical records backing from Arkansas to show that 2016 was lost to injury as well...

Yep, the good ol' Mauk situation.

Somehow, somewhere, Ben Mauk is still applying for eligibility

Too bad he can't play in 2022. We open the 2022 season in Arkansas.
