INFO: New addition to 2011 roster

[Brooks Hansen]

Word is that 6'1" 190-pound running back from Cross County High School will be walking on to play football next season. He is a dual-sport athlete who also played guard for his high school team in Wynne, AR. I'm still waiting to confirm this 100%, but I feel pretty confident that my info is good on this one. Not sure of the connection, etc yet, but either way, he's one more guy to cheer for.
