I guess he must live in Red Oak, not Dallas like his profile stuff says.

Let me rail on Thomas one last time this calendar day.


From Dick's Thursday report

quote:

Athlete Arico Evans, 6-2, 190, 4.50 of Dallas Hillcrest is expected to visit Arkansas Jan. 30. Running backs coach Joel Thomas visited him at school n Dec. 10. He's committed to Kansas. At this time he does not have an offer from the Hogs.



So he's left to try and flip guys from Kansas.



lowly Kansas.




At least he's still trying. I do give him props for that. MSmith hasn't brought shite this fall. He's been job hunting more than recruiting I imagine.

I'm preparing to be underwhelmed w/ how we finish this class.

I"ve pretty much accecpted that portis is gone, and while i think he needs one more year to hone his defense, that's fine.. but it hit me today if we lose Qualls we are truely screwed next year. there is a black hole at SF behind him. we'd have to start miles basically. we have a plethra of SGs.. babb, hannah, bell, watkins, but no SF

Guards are fine, we've recruited shite down low last 2 years and whiffed on all of our targets.

Ted Kapita is a must get.

Qualls isn't a "SF".

He is the third guard in a 3 guard line up.

Combo Guards and Forwards is what Anderson uses, not "1,2,3,4,5"/"PG, SG, SF, PF, C" or however you want to list the positions.

In the post game interview on SEC Now he said something like, "Our 4's are pretty good."

If "forwards" sounds like "fours" to you, then yes.

He also said "guards" not 1s, 2s, and 3s.

They will sign a forward of some type for sure:

Forwards:
Kingsley
Williams
Miles
Thompson

Obviously if Portis comes back it will be just one to replace Harris, if not two will need to be signed probably a combination of JUCO and either transfer or HS player depending on where the staff thinks Thompson will be next year in regards to min/game.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Qualls put into a G/F combo position allowing him to work from the high post out with one of the forwards at the low post.

Before Fl had hired their new coach. He's been after him hard.
