The University of Arkansas will forever be the first school to offer a scholarship to sophomore defensive end Xadavien Sims.
Razorbacks defensive line coach Jermial Ashley extended an offer to Sims during the second semester of his freshman year on April 20.
"I'm very thankful Coach Ashley saw potential in me," Sims said. "It's just boosted my confidence and helped me see I needed to step it up and continue to dominate and work hard.
"For me to get a offer so early, it really helped me to continue pushing myself to be the best I can be. I really like Coach Ash and the staff at Arkansas. It makes me want to work harder knowing they saw potential in me to offer me at 14."
