I hope he goes off tonight like he did at Alabama and breaks it off in Florida's ass.
The narrative has been "what a great defender Boogie is". Suspect Acuff will destroy that myth. 
Oak Grove in the house.

If I'm Florida, I let Acuff get his 25 but take BR3 and Thomas completely out of the game.

The above doesn't seem to work. This has the full interview.

He would have had 20 assists if our guys could catch and/or finish.

He is incredible.

lots of stuff on hogstat x but i'll just list some of the numbers.

2nd most 20p/10a games by a freshman in ncaa history (trae young the leader).
last night was the first documented 20+ point, 10+ assist game in arkansas history.
needs 10 points and 2 assists to move into the top ten in both for a single season in arkansas history. he'll be the only freshman in either category.

then there's this

Thanks Vegas, I'll update the running record tracker later.

Is this right? That's surprising to me...

That's pretty crazy. Looks like the closest is Mayberry who had an 18/11 game against Chaminade in his Sr. year

Barton Fink

I was quietly hoping he would get to 30/15 which is an unworldly stat line. Especially for a freshman PG against a P4 tourney team.

He followed up beating the shit out of Texas by working with the FHS varsity boys this morning.  Source my 15 year old who was super stoked to meet him today.   What a great dude

Barton Fink

He really seems to be a good kid. Doesn't showboat. Doesn't taunt orher players. Just enjoys playing the game and wants to win.

Got the chance to meet him last summer. Said he loved being in Fayetteville.

Seems like the recruits coming in next year are cut from the same mold.

Son of Spam

Amazing to score that many points each game while also dishing to others to score. This is about the most unselfish team we have ever had..
Well, shit...

I think Darius was in 5th grade when this was filmed.

The guy who posted it is his uncle and (I think) his "business manager."
Perish peacefully in a warm environment.

He was handling the ball like it was an extension of his body even then.  He is extremely talented and has put a huge amount of time into it.
