One of Chad Morris' first goals at Arkansas was getting his players in shape to play at the speed he wants on both sides of the ball. That was a stark contrast from the previous staff, which emphasized strength and typically bulked players up.

Sure enough, the Razorbacks who were on the team last year lost a total of 247 pounds during the winter conditioning program, according to a comparison of last year's roster and an updated roster provided by the UA at Thursday's practice. That is an average of 2.6 pounds per player.

Here is a look at the top 10 players in terms of lost weight...

1. Dalton Wagner, OL - 36 pounds

2. Audry Horn, OL - 30 pounds

t-3. Jalen Merrick, OL - 23 pounds

t-3. Will Gragg, TE - 23 pounds

t-5. Jordan Silver, LS - 16 pounds

t-5. Jonathan Nance, WR - 16 pounds

t-5. Blake Johnson, P - 16 pounds

8. Brian Wallace, OL - 14 pounds

9. Deion Malone, DL - 13 pounds

t-10. Jordan Jones, WR - 12 pounds

t-10. George Madden, LS - 12 pounds

t-10. Johnny Gibson, OL - 12 pounds

The last time Hawgs247 analyzed the roster like this was in July 2017 and the player who lost the most weight was former linebacker Josh Harris, who shed only 18 pounds. That is just half of the weight lost by Wagner, this year's No. 1 "loser."

Here is a look at the top five players in terms of gained weight...

1. Briston Guidry, DL - 25 pounds

2. Kendrick Jackson, FB - 17 pounds

3. T.J. Smith, DL - 16 pounds

4. Brandon DePrato, DL - 13 pounds

t-5. Grant Morgan, LB - 10 pounds

t-5. Tyler Pennington, LB - 10 pounds
