I thought that was a given. I might see if I can throw a celebratory neighborhood bar-b-que after the tourney ends...

North Little Rock coach lives a couple houses down from me in my neighborhood. I oughta go shake his hand and congratulate them. I don't follow much high school basketball in the state anymore so didn't realize they were doing so well.


I played softball against him for years. Heck of a good guy and he was a great softball player

Wasn't Thompson getting Top 100 hype going into his Jr year? What happen, he get lazy or plateau like crazy?



Something like that, there was talk about a top10 type player when he was a FR (IIRC), He was also offered by Pel as an 8th or 9th grader if I'm not getting him mixed up with someone else.

The in state talent we have for basketball coming up is amazing. It could really turn the program around and put us back in the national spotlight if they all stay and go to UA.

What really sucks is al these kids were born after the prime years of our dynasty. If they started following basketball religiously when they were 7 years old, then they saw teams from 2003 on. At the same time they've seen the glory of the one-and-done programs and Arkansas is no longer listed in discussion with UNC, Duke, Kentucky, and Kansas.

I don't think that cripples us. It just sucks that we have to explain to these kids how great we used to be and we could be again if they stay home and play.

I'll come up with some soliloquy to tell them while I pass out hamburgers with hundred dollar bills in them during our neighborhood cook out.

I'll have to get the details together and find an anchored thread to play in or hit people's gmails.
