Veteran recruiting columnist Otis Kirk will be joining ArkansasSports360.com as a weekly contributor. Kirk, of Rivals.com, will offer his recruiting analysis each Tuesday as part of our Recruiting 360 coverage.

Kirk, who has more than 30 years of recruiting experience, can be heard at 4:10 p.m. every Monday on The T.J. Carpenter Show on 92.1 FM in Northwest Arkansas and daily with Jimmy Haas on the Sports Hog from 3-4 p.m.

Currently, Kirk works for HawgSports, part of the Rivals.com network. He has been featured in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Morning News of Northwest Arkansas and the Mena Star.

"When you think of recruiting coverage in Arkansas, the first name - and frankly, the only name - that really comes to mind is Otis Kirk. He IS recruiting coverage in Arkansas, and we're thrilled he's bringing his weekly column to ArkansasSports360.com," Editor Jim Harris said. "Recruiting followers will be able to find Otis with Rivals.com's HawgSports.com and here at ArkansasSports360.com."

When he's not covering recruiting, Kirk is probably watching the Lakers, Red Wings and Yankees with his two Shih Tzus, Kobe and Puddles. Kirk has three sons, all of whom live in Northwest Arkansas.

Kirk's weekly contributions to ArkansasSports360.com begin Tuesday, April 6.
