Don't worry. I know that I'm full of shite.

Good game.

Why doesn't Bell get more playing time? He might be a defensive liability, but so is Young. Bell seems like he's Arkansas' only guard who can consistently hit a jump shot.

Clarke is also playing well. I don't think Arkansas will miss Powell too much next season if he leaves. Adding Portis and Harris to go along with Clarke will more than make up for his loss.

Bell is a freshman and I think was a bit overwhelmed at the start of the season. He was recruited for his outside shot and he has shown it the last two games. Clarke, Bell, Qualls, Williams are all first year players. Adding Portis, Kingsley, and Harris next year will give us the missing pieces IMO. All bigs who can move.

I guess the promise with our team is we are young. Everyone is eligible to return. I don't expect Young to be back and I think Powell takes a contract over seas, but we still return Haydar, Wade, Madden, Clarke, Qualls, Gulley, Williams, Mickelson, Bell, and add Harris, Portis, and Kingsley.

Anderson is slowly getting his squad together here.

Really reminds me of Nolan's first couple of years here. Nolan went 12-20 in conference his first two seasons and made the NIT his second season going 19-14 overall. Nolan then went 112-26 in conference play over the next 7 seasons as he got his players in place.

I doubt we get those same results, but Anderson is building this thing the same way.
