Not many changes since last week but after talking to Albert Regis and hearing how excited he was about his Arkansas offer, I added him to the board at DT. There are still just four DTs on the board (two high school and two JUCO).

Florida 4-star corner Ricardo Hallman is due to come off the board this afternoon with a probable commitment to Wisconsin. The Badgers recruited him for several more months than Arkansas but the Hogs may still get an official visit down the line. With him off the board, it seems like Norwood, Markevious Brown and Hairston are the most likely options at this point but more DBs could get offered.

Hairston had Arkansas in his top 8 in May and then said he was going to announce soon. It wasn't Arkansas at the time but now he's slowing things back down and it looks like the Hogs will get more of a chance for the Michigan native.

Yall saw Sam post about Arkansas being amongst the top contenders for 4-star Cam'Ron Valdez but with his main position being RB and the Hogs already having two, I think it's highly unlikely he chooses to come here with that much competition. Texas Tech was ranked first among the contenders and they don't have an RB at this point.

I tried to catch up with the defensive ends this weekend but apparently they weren't in the mood to talk, so I'll keep trying.

Word on the Hill is Arkansas is getting closer to cracking Erin Outley. I hit him up Friday and he responded but didn't wanna do an interview so for now, it's just hearsay.

Eli Drinkwitz must've seen my tweets last week because after the Razorbacks pushed ahead of them in the rankings, the Tigers landed 3 commits in four days including a teammate of Raheim Sanders. Silver lining: Arkansas wasn't recruiting any of their new additions.

The rankings are pretty unusual right now with just two teams (Florida and Tennessee) in the top 10. Their classes are almost done. It's clear to me teams like LSU, Georgia and Alabama aren't in a rush to take commitments. Georgia has the ONLY 5-star SEC commit––11 5-stars are still undecided, which is normal since a lot of them like to drag things out.

Since sports is slow and I don't discuss religion or the P word in public. Have any of you been to Hochatown Ok lately? Some of you may know nothing about it but the new Branson is in its fledgling in the edge of Oklahoma, I have been there a million times its only about an hour from me. Located on Broken Bow lake this place is insane, 15 years ago it was 1 little store now OMG, $1000 a night cabins that are breathtaking, restaurants on top of restaurants, go carts, putt putt. Escape rooms and the Choctaws are about to start a mega resort and casino. Golf course on the lake. When I was about 24 years old this old man tried selling me 40 acres in the middle of it all for $10,000 which nothing was there then. i remember telling him I wouldn't pay the taxes for it. That place is probably worth 5 million now. It had been a year or so since I had been up there but made the trip Saturday and the changes in a year shocked me. That place will be something in a few years, I've found everything there except a cake/cupcake shop I think you could get rich catering kids bday parties and selling to the people in the cabins at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

By my count, 11 of the Hogs' 13 non-conference slots for next season are accounted for: https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/hogs-add-4-games-to-non-conference-slate-for-2020-21

Hogs get Baylor! That is a massive game for Neighbors and co.

Obviously, I wouldn't be where I am today if I didn't watch football with my dad every Sunday growing up. We didn't really watch much college ball except really big games because my dad didn't have a college alma mater and wasn't really tied to any school growing up in New Hampshire, but that just meant I got to dive into the amazing world of CFB on my own later on which was fun too. My dad's form of love is a combination of tough love and put downs so he either on purpose or by accident created the thick skin I have that without, probably would've made going into this industry impossible. Sent my dad a nice card already but I'll get to go down to see him in early July for his birthday... stopped counting how old he was after he turned 50 so i'm guessing 61? Yall would like him, but he also has an inherent mistrust of the internet so you'd never find him on a message board.

Just kidding, but now that I have your attention I need Branson golf recs.

Me and 3 buddies are planning a weekend trip for the end of July. We are going to go all out one day and play Payne's Valley and end the day with Top of the Rock.

We want to be a little more economical with our second day and would love to hear from the board on what tracks y'all have enjoyed up there.

With his length, athleticism, and shot, he may be a one and done...but maybe I’m getting ahead of myself.

private property during the riots and looting...will their insurance cover that or will the insurance cos. balk @ paying because local govt. refused to uphold the rule of law ?

Interested to see the responses:

There’s so many good underrated tunes. Give me Chester, Arkansas’s own Royal Wade Kimes: “Another Man’s Sky”. Infinite likes to anyone that remembers that one. A listening staple for me.

Meant to share this yesterday, but Travis Hester has entered the transfer portal. He's a RHP from College Station, Texas, who redshirted last season and did not appear in any of the 16 games this season. I don't remember DVH ever really talking about him. So it's not a particularly surprising decision.

Another notable transfer portal addition in the last week or so: Rokia Doumbia, a sophomore guard on the women's basketball team. She never started, but she got a decent amount of minutes and appeared in every game. She averaged 3.2 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.2 rebounds in 16.3 minutes this season. Originally from Mali in Africa, Doumbia played at the IMG Academy in Florida, where she was a four-star recruit and the No. 97 overall player in the 2018 class.

There was reason to believe Curtis would be a good pickup when he committed on the spot after receiving his offer but with three seasons down and two to go, not sure Curtis will ever majorly contribute on the Hill: https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/razorback-roster-rundown-no-20-jordon-curtis

It's nice seeing Arkansas getting some love and Chode Morris not.

Looks like he’s staying at Oklahoma State despite the NCAA sanctions. There had been speculation about him going to Kentucky, so I’d say this is good news for the Hogs.
