Prediction for 2014 Basketball Hogs!!!

__________

Last year I got to go to the Kentucky at Arkansas basketball game and I loved every minute of our 73-60 victory in March of 2013. Marshawn Powell had 15 points and B.J.Young added 13 and Archie Goodwin who I saw play in high school for Sylvan Hills had 14 points for Kentucky. My niece used to go to high school with John Calipari’s daughter and they were good friends, but it still annoys me when she pulls for Kentucky!!!!

This year I am sure that Kentucky will be loaded with those 6 highly sought after recruits they brought in, but I am looking at Arkansas hopefully making a move in the near future. I think they will be improved this year and probably have a chance to really make some major improvement one year later. Tennessee’s coach has shown an ability to bring in some great recruits and Missouri has a coach that has done a very good job too. It is true that this is the 20th year since the opening of Bud Walton Arena but I don’t look for us to be as good back in that magical year!!! I predict we will get 19 wins and miss out again on the NCAA but next year we get in and even advance.

SEC Football Schedule has in past and still is benefitting Alabama and Georgia

July 24, 2013 – 9:32 am

Alabama last year had to play Tennessee and Kentucky from the East and their conference record was 1-15 while LSU had to play Florida and Georgia and their record was 14-2. Doesn’t seem fair does it? In the old days Tennessee would have been a top 10 team almost every year and playing them as […]

SEC football recruiting Part 1

February 12, 2013 – 7:39 am

ESPN’s final recruiting rankings are not as good as others as I have seen. I do have a hard time with Missouri (38) having such a good ranking when other services had the tigers tanking their class this year compared to other SEC schools. However, Kentucky (36) is almost as bad when there is vast […]

February 5, 2013 – 6:00 am

It is really troubling to me that my Arkansas Razorbacks are 14th in the SEC in football recruiting this year and there are only a couple of days left till signing day. Alabama came in and got our best running back from North Little Rock high and I was told yesterday that Hunter Henry of […]

SEC Football Recruiting

January 29, 2013 – 8:22 am

I am not so mad anymore about Arkansas being ranked number 64 in recruiting this year while Auburn is #20 and Tennessee is #30 and even Kentucky is doing better than us. That is because they racked up lots of players when they had coaches during the year while we had John L. Smith. What […]
