CHASE HANCOCK VISITS WITH AN OU's OMARION ROBINSON DURING HIS VISIT ON WEDNESAY
Pulaski Academy Chase Hancock is one of the most popular high school athletes in Arkansas. After running the fastest time in the state of Arkansas two weeks ago, the highly sought after wide receiver has been on a whirlwind tour of college football programs. Wednesday night he was returning from Oklahoma University. Less than 24 hours later, he is back at the road and headed for Tallahassee where he will check in on Florida State.
When he is not visiting college football programs, Hancock is receiving offers. Two days before running his 10.66 at the Jacksonville's Titan Relays, Hancock received an offer from the University of Arkansas.

"This is the beginning of a great relationship," Hancock told the Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette after receiving the offer from the Hogs.
Earlier this week, Hancock received an offer from Mississippi State.
Maybe the following stats will explain why so much attention has been directed his way. During his sophomore season, Hancock had 67 receptions for 803 yards including five touchdowns.
His 10.66 was no fluke as he beat some serious competition including Jacksonville senior Marc Davis, who is ranked No. 3 in Arkansas after running a 10.73 in the same meet.
"My only goal before this race was to beat my childhood teammate, Mason Ball," Hancock said. "God just blessed me to run a 10.66. Funny because that's my second race of my life. I'm new to track and PA hasn't had it in over 10 years so what a year to bring it back. 'The best is yet to come.' I want the state record."
ARKANSAS ALL-TIME 100m SOPHOMORE LIST
Anything is possible for Hancock, who sits at No. 26 all-time in Arkansas after his second 100m race ever. For sophomores in Arkansas, Hancock is ranked No. 4 all-time.
