MA has only signed 4 AR kids out of HS since taking over the program. 25 kids have signed D1 in this time frame per rivals. We have taken a transfer in Hannahs and Watkins moved from Walk-on to Scholarship Player so that gives us 6 and Macon a Juco transfer will give us 7 AR kids since 2012.
In the 2016 Class alone 9 kids are committed/signed to D1 schools with a couple of other possible D1 commits undecided. Five of those kids are committed or signed to tourney teams (Kentucky, Vandy, Wichita St, UALR and Tulsa).
Just some interesting "trends" in the numbers if you like statistics.
Since 2012 What Could Have Been Top15 (take away Portis and Goodwin and you have a 13 man roster for next season, but very undersized):
Archie Goodwin- Kentucky
Dusty Hannahs- Tx Tech/Arkansas
Bobby Portis- Arkansas
IJ Ready- Miss State
Anton Beard-Arkansas
Kahron Ross-Lehigh
Trey Thompson- Arkansas
KeVaughn Allen- Florida
Daryl Macon- Juco/Arkansas
Malik Monk- Kentucky
Austin Reaves- Wichita State
Peyton Willis- Vandy
Lawson Korita- Tulsa
Mitchell Smith- Mizzou
Eric Curry- Minnesota
