Kiel Pollard
One of the early offers sent out by Will Muschamp after taking over at USC was to WR Kiel Pollard (6-1 228) of Moultrie, GA who currently is committed to Arkansas.
Pollard was a major reason his team won two straight 6A state championships and finished this season ranked #2 in the USA Today poll. He had 76 catches for 1163 yards and 18 touchdowns. He was named the 6A offensive player of the year in Georgia.
“I think I’m going to take a look at it, take a look into it and see what happens,” Pollard said of the USC offer. He has taken one official visit to Arkansas. He’s also looking at USC for an official visit.
Pollard said he’s also been in touch with Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech and Auburn. He’s been communicating with Gamecock running backs coach Bobby Bentley.
“He told me that Coach Muschamp really liked me and he told me to come down there and compete,” Pollard said.
Pollard called his commitment strength to Arkansas right now at about 99%.
