From media day today

Arkansas freshman Daniel Gafford goes up for a dunk during practice Tuesday, Oct. 3, 2017.
FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas held its media day at Bud Walton Arena and opened up the first 45 minutes of practice to media. Here are some observations.
— This team is very long and very athletic. That was my main takeaway after watching the beginning part of practice, a lot of which was centered around transition drills. There were a lot of alley-oops and a lot of speed in the open court.
— Several guys changed their body over the offseason or once they got on campus this summer. Daniel Gafford weighs 235 pounds and has added a lot of strength since arriving at 217 in late May. Anton Beard has lost about 15 pounds to 185 and said he feels quicker than he has in a while. Gained weight when he sat out with his legal issues a few years ago, but feels like he’s finally back to where he wants to be. Mike Anderson referenced the competition for playing time as a motivator. C.J. Jones weighs about the same, 175, but is stronger than he was a year ago.
— Arlando Cook is still suspended and wasn’t out there. Anderson said they’re waiting for the legal process to be completed.
— Khalil Garland isn’t cleared to fully participate, but Anderson repeatedly said he was highly optimistic about him being cleared at some point. He was actually able to go through a lot in practice. Did some fast-break drills, three-man stuff and individual work. Dunked often and looked like he was still as athletic as he was in high school.
