Allen visited with Forrest City DE Tevin Beanum, an Arkansas commitment at his school on Friday. The visit went very well and positive. Beanum was considering taking a visit to Ole Miss but that's no longer the case.
As reported by twitter last night, Arkansas commitment and TE Deondre Skinner of Patterson, La. plans to call Bielema this weekend. Bielema has tried to call Skinner but he's had phone problems and missed his call.
Arkansas has not contacted Contra Costa College Coach Alonzo Carter about OL Desmond Harrison. Harrison was a target of the Hogs at one time.
