Insiders and Rivals are both reporting that Mesquite WR/ath Reggie Fish (5-7, 145) has committed to Arkansas.

The Morning News said today that he's 139 pounds. That's REALLY small, even for a super-quick guy.

If he's a good enough player for Arkansas to offer, he's good enough for SMU.

Why do you care about "Rivals"-- the info you see comes almost exclusively from player quotes & questionaires, not valid statements from a qualified recruiter/analyst.

The kids dad was a college roomate of coach Nutt so that may be a good reason why a 5=6 140 got an offer from arky..

They're not going to offer a kid as a favor, especially not this early. From what I hear, this kid's athleticism is unbelievable - fast as Henderson, elusive as Warren. Small or not, that's an appealing combination.

Good luck to Fish-- let's go find someone who weighs 239 or 339, not 139.

SMUGUY i like Arky and i like Nutt...The kid can obviously play but at 139 pounds youre more likely to take a reach on a kid when you have a family conmnection..Thats probably why alot of other BIGTIME programs arent in on this kid and Arky is..Now if he had 5 other top schools after him, then i would admit im wrong..
