MEMPHIS — The Mega Memphis football camp just started and will involve four sessions and last until 6:15. All of the Arkansas assistants are here.
Former Hog BB guard Warren Linn is here with his son Trace, who's a 2018 TB-TE from BTW in Tulsa. He was the defensive MVP of a recent SMU camp and received an offer from the Mustangs.
