Here's the recap from UA:

FAYETTEVILLE - The University of Arkansas football team continued spring practice on Tuesday with a workout inside Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium.

After practice, Arkansas offensive coordinator Jim Chaney spoke to the media. He talked about the improvement of the team in recent practices, especially the quarterbacks.

"On Saturday and today, we went out and did some better things," Coach Chaney said. "I’m pleased with our development. We threw and caught the ball pretty well. Our quarterbacks have been doing a solid job."

Coach Chaney also talked about the team’s growth and progress throughout the spring practices.

"The attitude is good," Coach Chaney said. "The team is working hard. I feel comfortable that we are growing. Every day you can see the growth, and every day since the start of the spring there has been progress."
