Notre Dame tight end transfer Cane Berrong is expected to start his official visit to Arkansas today.

He picked up an offer from Arkansas on Jan. 3 after announcing plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal on Dec. 12. Berrong has other offers from Wisconsin, SMU, Colorado, Temple, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Memphis, New Mexico and Western Michigan. 

Berrong, 6-4, 243 pounds, had no receiving stats in South Bend, Ind., in two seasons. He played some on special teams and at tight end as a true freshman, but suffered a torn ACL midway during the season. 

He missed spring practice and wasn't cleared to play until the early part of this season. 

Berrong was an ESPN 4-star prospect, the No. 1 tight end-H, No. 51 overall prospect in the nation in the 2021 class, and the No. 5 player from Georgia. 

He was invited to play in the 2021 Under Armour All-America Game in Orlando, Fla., before it was canceled.
