Injuries keep coming in...

Man, Arkansas can't catch a break. So many injuries this year. Ark did get a couple players back for the Auburn game but were still without their best corner Tevin Mitchel, TE Chris Gragg, and DE Tank Wright. Then Ark's best LB goes down at Auburn with a foot injury: Alonzo Highsmith. He had surgery today and is out for the season (he joins both fullbacks that are out for season due to injury). Running back Dennis Johnson has played the past two weeks with a broken hand. Other key players have missed extended time including defensive back Eric Bennett, corner Killybrew, and QB Tyler Wilson.
Lots of youngters playing in the secondary right now....and Ark may start 2 true freshman at linebacker against Kentucky.

Just reported that Tyler Wilson was in a car accident and totaled his car. The report said that he appears to be ok and should not miss any time. Close call.

The hits keep coming: DE Tank Wright shoulder surgery today out for season, LB Alonzo Highsmith had surgery on foot and is out for season, and RB Ronnie Wingo is questionable for the Kentucky game. Ark will also be without TE Chris Gragg for the 3rd straight game. Of course both starting fullbacks out for season due to injuries sustained early in season: Kiero Small and Kody Walker. Bright side is that Ark may get back their two best corners in the Kentucky game....both injured at beginning of year and have not played since ULM: Tevin Mitchel and Eric Bennett.
The mascots and cheerleaders may have to play before the season is over.
Also, the are calling for extremely bad weather for the game in Fayetteville Sat. Severe thunderstorms. Should be interesting.
