Arkansas: Ask yourself this question: How would the Razorbacks be perceived if they had Kentucky across their chests and not Arkansas? The answer is easy — like a top-10 team. John Calipari’s first season in Fayetteville should be a promising one as he’s put together a roster that’s older and more seasoned that the last one he coached while he was in Lexington. A troika of transfers from Kentucky — DJ Wagner, Adou Thiero, and Zvonimir Ivisic — followed their head coach while Calipari also added two others — Johnell Davis (Florida Atlantic) and Jonas Aidoo (Tennessee) — that should make a major difference defensively. Three top-40 freshmen — Boogie Fland, Billy Richmond, and Karter Knox — are also in the fold for the Razorbacks along with holdover Trevon Brazile (8.6 points, 5.9 rebounds). Arkansas could very well be the second-best team in the SEC behind Alabama.
