CONWAY, Ark. – Head coach
Nathan Brown prepares to open his eighth season at the helm of the Central Arkansas football team, and starts Fall Camp on Wednesday with the first of 19 practices before the season opener later in August.
After five players were named to the Preseason All-UAC Team, the Bears are finally ready to put rubber to the road as the squad preps for the 2025 season. Behind two well-awarded senior offensive linemen,
Will Diggins and
Jamal Mull, the Bears open camp with a host of new faces in key positions.
Central Arkansas will also look for increased production from Freshman All-American wideout
Malachi Henry, and more backfield touches for sophomore running back
Landen Chambers. Defensively, the Bears return a good number of defensive backs, including Preseason All-UAC selection
Dillon Williams. Also back on defense are linebacker Buck Cobbs and lineman
Bradley Clark, who combined for 14.0 tackles for loss last season.
The Bears take their first official snaps of fall camp on Wednesday, practicing from 9-11 a.m. each day through the end of the week, with practice on Sunday set for 3:30 p.m. The cycle repeats until August 19
