3 Quotes From Thursday

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas went through its seventh of 29 practices and third one in full pads on Thursday at the Fred W. Smith Center outdoor practices fields.

Following the day’s 24-period workout, five players, including senior quarterback Austin Allen, sophomore running back Devwah Whaley and graduate transfer running back David Williams, met with the media.

Here’s a look at the top three quotes from Thursday:

1. Allen on the offensive line and Frank Ragnow’s leadership:
“Those guys worked their tails off all summer. They were in here getting extra film work and extra field work. Having a guy like Frank come back and rub off on all of those other guys is a good thing for us and a great thing for those younger guys being able to learn from a guy like him, a guy who will be one of the top linemen taken in the draft next year. As much as he can get them going and rub off on those guys, it will be a pretty special line for years to come.”

2. Whaley on Williams:
“We are with each other every day. We are like brothers. The competition each day on the field is making each of us better. It’s fun and it’s exactly what I was hoping for when he decided to be a Razorback.”

3. Williams on what he brings to the table at Arkansas:
“I feel like I can bring everything. Devwah and I are going to push each other. I know he’s going to come to practice every day and bring 100%, which makes me go 100%. I think iron sharpens iron and we’re going to get better together.”
