Highly regarded offensive lineman Jovan Pruitt said in a text message that he plans to visit Arkansas June 1.
Pruitt, 6-6, 290 pounds, 5.2 seconds in the 40 yard dash, of Dallas Bishop Dunne High School has more than 10 scholarship offers, including Alabama, Nebraska, Texas, Notre Dame and Oklahoma. He was hoping to travel to Fayetteville for Arkansas' spring game on Saturday but was unable to make it. Video highlights click here
Bishop Dunne Coach Michael Johnson comments on Pruitt's combination of size and athletic ability in the March 15th edition of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
"He's a great athlete and very smart and aggressive," Johnson said. "You rarely see someone that big being able to move fluid and athletic as he can. He's a hard worker. He trimmed down from being 340 to 275. That takes a lot of hard work and dedication."
Johnson is equally high on Pruitt's character
"He's a real good kid, very humble," Johnson said. "You love to be around him. Very good manners. He's a kid you wouldn't mind marrying your daughter. He's just that type of young man."
