Arkansas CB Dwight McGlothern announces decision to return for 2023 season
Arkansas cornerback Dwight McGlothern is running it back. He announced via Twitter he plans to return to Fayetteville for one more go-around in 2023.
McGlothern transferred to Arkansas from LSU ahead of the 2022 season and had an impressive showing, totaling a career-high 52 tackles and four interceptions as a junior.
“I want to thank God for allowing me to be able to play the game that I love,” McGlothern wrote. “I am thankful for [the] Arkansas coaching staff, fans, and my teammates for accepting me into this program. With that being said, after talks with my family, I have decided to return to the University of Arkansas for one more year!”
Arkansas went 7-6 overall in 2022, including a 3-5 record in SEC play, and held off Kansas in a thrilling 55-53 victory in the Liberty Bowl. In that game, McGlothern had 10 total tackles, a tackle for loss and an interception.
Temple expected to hire ex-Arkansas assistant Dominique Bowman as cornerbacks coach
Temple is expected to hire former Arkansas cornerbacks coach Dominique Bowman to the same position, according to On3’s Matt Zenitz. Bowman spent this past season as an assistant coach with the Razorbacks.
It has been a quick journey up the ranks for Bowman, who played for Hugh Freeze at NAIA Lambuth University. Bowman started his coaching career at Cordova (Tenn.) High before making the jump to the college level in 2016 at Division II Arkansas-Monticello as a defensive backs coach.
He then spent two seasons as an assistant head coach and defensive backs coach at UT Martin before heading to Austin Peay as a co-defensive coordinator. Bowman then returned to UT Martin to serve as its co-defensive coordinator before taking the cornerbacks coach job at Marshall in 2021.
Bowman takes over for Jules Montinar at Temple. Montinar recently left to take the cornerbacks coach job at East Carolina.
