Former USC tailback Broderick Green was cleared to play immediately at Arkansas by the NCAA because he moved home to be near his ailing grandmother.
“I am excited about the opportunity to play for Arkansas this season,” Green said. “I appreciate the support of coach (Bobby) Petrino, the rest of the coaching staff and the athletic department administration in helping make this outcome a reality.”
You might remember the NCAA denied a similar request last season for USC basketball player Alex Stepheson.
