OUTLOOK: One of three returning starters on the offensive front, along with Wade Grayson and DeMarcus Love, Dominguez is expected to hold down the left tackle position for the second straight year. He is listed in front of sophomore Grant Freeman on the depth chart. He has 10 starts for his career, all last year.

2008: He began the year as the starter at left tackle and made 10 starts throughout the season. He started every game, except games against Florida and Tulsa, which were the only games in which he did not play. Michael Aguirre started those games. He helped Michael Smith become the ninth 1,000-yard rusher in school history, finish the year second in the SEC and No. 22 in the nation with 207 carries for 1,072 yards and eight touchdowns. He also helped protect Casey Dick, who completed 205 passes, and threw for 2,586 yards and 13 touchdowns. The completion total is a school record, the yardage total ranks second and the TDs tie for eighth. Arkansas’ 3,115 yards passing is a school record and the 4,477 yards of total offense ranks ninth.

2007: Dominguez backed up All-American Robert Felton at left tackle in 2007 and played in six games. He did not make any starts, but earned snaps against Troy, North Texas, Chattanooga, Ole Miss, Florida International and Tennessee. He also had 10 knockdown blocks. He helped Arkansas’ line pave the way for an SEC-leading and school-record 3,725 rushing yards, an average of 286.5 yards per game, which was fourth in the nation. – In the opener against Troy, he logged five snaps and graded out at 100 percent on running plays and at 80 percent for the game. He had 22 snaps against UNT and graded out at 100 percent on passing plays and 89 percent on runs for an average of 90 with four knockdowns. He totaled eight plays against Chattanooga and after not playing against Auburn in the following game, had his most effective effort the following week against Ole Miss. In 10 snaps against the Rebels, he graded out at 100 percent on both running and passing plays for an overall grade of 100 with two knockdowns. He received his most extensive action the following week with 44 snaps against FIU and earned a 94 grade on passing plays. He also had four knockdown blocks. He played 27 snaps at Tennessee and graded out at 92 percent on passing plays.

2006: He redshirted as he worked behind seniors Zac Tubbs and Tony Ugoh at offensive tackle.

HIGH SCHOOL CAREER: He played both offensive tackle and tight end in high school for Coach Greg Guy, and was a co-captain at Bainbridge. He earned a blocking percentage rate of 89.8 percent in his senior season on his way to Class 4A all-district honors. He recorded 51 knockdown blocks and 12 pancakes as a senior. He was a high school teammate of fellow Razorback Malcolm Sheppard. He also competed in basketball. He earned all-district honors as both a junior (18.9 ppg, 9.4 rpg) and senior (16.4 ppg, 6.4 rpg). Scout ranked him as the No. 84 player in Georgia. He recorded a 325-pound bench press in high school. He was also recruited by Florida State, South Carolina, Southern Miss, Alabama-Birmingham, Central Florida and Marshall.
