Arkansas receiver Marquel Wade might return this Saturday against Mississippi State. The freshman was originally suspended two weeks ago for the Hogs’ home game against South Carolina following an ejection on a special teams hit against Vanderbilt return man Jonathan Krause the week before. Then, Wade was suspended once again for Arkansas’ game against Tennessee for violation of team rules. As Arkansas gets ready for the Bulldogs, coach Bobby Petrino sounded optimistic that Wade would be back. “He’s done everything so far this week that he’s supposed to,” Petrino said. “We’ll see what the next couple days bring, but hopefully he’ll be on the field Saturday.”
Wade’s value has mostly been on special teams this year. He has 472 all-purpose yards this season, including 296 kickoff return yards, one for a touchdown against New Mexico.
