FAYETTEVIL­LE Redshirtin­g last fall as a Razorbacks freshman under the Bret Bielema regime, cornerback Korey Hernandez, after a winter offseason and spring drills under new coach Chad Morris, declared on social media that he intends to seek football opportunit­ies elsewhere and transfer from the UA at the close of the spring semester.

Hernandez parts Arkansas on compliment­ary terms, noting he met “some unforgetta­ble people” at the UA.

Hernandez, safety Reid Miller, as a graduate transfer, and junior tight end Will Gragg of Dumas have declared their intentions to transfer since spring practice ended.
