Arkansas lands a "cerebral machine" in quarterback transfer Town
247Sports was first to report Arkansas was a player for former USC quarterback Ricky Town, who was granted from his release from the Trojans program on Aug. 17.
Friday he's a Razorback.
"I call him a cerebral machine as far as schematics, understanding coverage, pre and post snap, making solid decisions and he's able to change protection and make solid decision," Town's personal quarterbacks coach Donovan Dooley of Quarterbacks University said.
"I think he's going to do really well and I think the system fits him."
Town visited Arkansas this week.
"It's a pro-style system, they're up under the center 90 percent of the time and the thought the coaches were great, really straight forward and they have extensive knowledge of the game and previous experience with quarterbacks that went on to the NFL," Dooley recapped.
A U.S. Army All-American, Town was ranked by 247Sports as the nation's No. 3 pro-style quarterback and No. 50 recruit overall in the class-of-2015. He had enrolled early at USC and went through the Trojans spring practice.
Town has four years of eligibility.
