1. Arkansas is moving all the instate kids to the Jan. 28 weekend for the UA-UK basketball game. That is all the instate kids that they can get that weekend, they had them down for the Jan. 21 weekend (Auburn hoops) but now have broken that down to two big weekends instead of just one and an afterthought on the other. Smart move I think personally. All four LR Central kids and Warren WR Ricardo Kemp are among the ones coming on Jan 28. Mcfadden may keep his visit on Jan. 21.
2. I have noticed a little aggressiveness in recruiting this year that has really impressed me that I used to not see in Arkansas recruiting outside the state. Arkansas did its homework and offered Casey Dick before most even knew he existed. It resulted in arkansas getting a very good QB and beating off the herd. Now, they have done it again wiht Mike Aguirre and I'm very impressed. Also, let me say one thing about Aguirre, right now he is a sleeper, but wouldn't have been after one more all star game and now that I put his name out on the net and in the papers, he would have started getting plenty of atttention, but Mike is not and wasn't ever a project. There is a big difference in sleeper and project.
3. I'm not saying this is the top five juniors in the state right now,b ut the five best I have seen play right now are Mitch Mustain, QB, Bartley Webb, OL, and Damian Williams, WR-RB-CB, all from Springdale, Greenwood QB Daniel Stegall, and Wynne DL L.T. Walker. Those are the five best I have seen and they are all DI kids, but I haven't seen everyone yet but I will.
4. The best sophomores I have seen are Josh Trezvant, RB and Freddie Burton, FS, both from Morrilton, DJ Williams, DL, Central Arkansas Christian, Kodi Burns, QB, FS Northside, Terrance Garrett and Terrance Boykin, both athletes from Wynne, and K Alex Tejada of Springdale. Both the juniors and sophomores are in no particular order. I'm convinced all these kids are DI if htey keep working, high DI.
