I'm not really hearing shit about NSJ's stock rising or falling.

Has there been any talk about NSJ?

So, what's the word on Holland?

Smith should go late in the lottery

We probably won't know anything till closer to the end of the month. Texas is withholding his release from the LOI. They have 30 days from his request to authorize it or deny (which puts it right around May 31). After that, he can appeal to the NCAA. Though at that point he would probably just say screw it and go G-league.

[Hogworth Ballington III]

Most talking heads have him as a hard Hog lean (great name for a band by the way).

It's disappointing having a lottery pick and other draftees yet having an extremely mediocre season. The Kansas victory was literally the only main highlight and Sweet Sixteen isn't too bad, but the results did not match the talent. I guess Kentucky has been doing it for years.

Yeah yeah I know all the reasons, in 3 main categories.

Holding a player to an LOI after a coaching change will go over GREAT with future recruits.

never heard of him

Pretty sure they're thinking more about hurting us (or any team looking to court him) by making us hold a spot while the top end of the portal dries up. Also they might figure that other teams won't keep waiting and he will be forced to either stay with them or go gleague.

[vegashog]

there's not a team out there that wouldn't wait for holland if they knew he was interested in them. you wait for the #1 player in the class.

texass has their 30 days to throw a shitload of nil money at him and try to get a better roster together (i read that's the reason he wanted out). if they don't release him he will win the appeal. they cannot force him to stay.

since he could have gone to the g-league at any time, my bet is he will play for muss.

[Barton Fink]

Agree. My first gut feeling was G League but if that's the route he was going he would've done it by now.

probably could make more via NIL at Arkansas.

Playing UConn a couple rounds later would have made everything alright

They killed everyone. How in the world did they lose in the regular season?

I have no idea but I think we were good for at least a couple more rounds against anybody else who was left.

UConn had a 2-6 stretch then they figured something out

uh, it's really fricking hard to go undefeated maybe?
could be?
no one has done it since 1976.

even the great 1994 Razorback team (which I think doesn't get it's due nationally for how good they were) lost 3 games.

I had to look up who we lost to that year. Lost by 2 at Bama, one at Mississippi State, and by 12 to Kentucky in SEC semis.

I think the '91 team beats the '94 and '95 teams.

'91 Arkansas basketball is a top 10 all time college basketball team.

'91 Unlv just happens to be #1.
