Texas Football: 3 best DT Gerald Wilbon transfer landing spots

2. Arkansas Razorbacks

The Arkansas Razorbacks were in one of the worst positions of any in the Power Five last season. Former head coach Chad Morris wound up seeing the door in Fayetteville after a really bad season that even saw the Razorbacks fall short against the San Jose State Spartans. Now the Razorbacks will be looking to improve under the direction of a new head coach, with the recently hired Sam Pittman.

This will essentially be an Arkansas defense that is starting all over from where they were last season. Even one of the most highly touted defensive linemen on the Arkansas depth chart for 2019 is on his way out of Fayetteville. The former four-star recruit and to-be redshirt freshman defensive end Collin Clay is transferring to link up with head coach Mike Gundy and the Oklahoma State Cowboys.

The Hogs are set to lose three of their four starting defensive linemen from the 2019 roster. Those three linemen that Arkansas is losing includes defensive tackles McTelvin Agim and T.J. Smith and defensive end Gabe Richardson. There was NFL talent along the Razorbacks defensive line last season, especially with Richardson and Agim, but the production was lacking overall.

If Pittman and the Hogs want to land a senior defensive tackle that can anchor the line and mentor some of the younger players up front, then Wilbon is a great fit. He has Power Five experience, and was able to make an impact on the biggest stage before with the Longhorns (specifically in the Sugar Bowl win over the Georgia Bulldogs).
