When asked the open-ended question prior to the Missouri game of freshmen that could contribute in future years, coach Sam Pittman mentioned Bridges by name.
"I like Jaden Allen," Pittman said. "I like Selman Bridges, our two freshman corners."
Pittman will have to watch Bridges make his contributions at another school. Originally from Temple, Texas, Bridges was a consensus four-star prospect and ranked No. 99 overall for the class of 2024 on ESPN's 300. He chose Arkansas over other blue chip programs including Texas and Alabama.
In his lone season at Arkansas, Bridges saw action in six games and did not record a tackle but did record a pass breakup in the Razorbacks' 70-0 season-opening win over Arkansas Pine-Bluff. He enters the portal with 3 years of eligibility remaining.
Bridges adds his name to a growing list of outgoing transfers on both sides of the ball for the Hogs.
