Arkansas’ depth at running back and on the defensive line took hits this offseason thanks to the departures of Juan Day and Daytrieon Dean, respectively, from Bret Bielema’s Razorback program. With both players looking ahead to the next step of their playing careers, both have already reportedly found their next destinations.
Dean, who enrolled early after signing in Fayetteville as a three-star prospect in the 2015 recruiting cycle, acknowledged he had no ill will toward the Arkansas program on his way out of the program. In much the same fashion, Day expressed nothing but gratitude following the end of his career at Arkansas after graduating from the school.
According to Otis Kirk of Hawgs247, Dean is headed to Abilene Christian to continue his playing career while Day is off to Stephen F. Austin. This report has also been reported by Danny West of Hawg Sports and JUCO Football Forer.
