Just a perfect description of any visit to Hogville.

I looked at HiV’s thread on Friday and it was 3 pages. I looked earlier today and it was 11, with absolutely no real news coming out during that time. They get hysterical about everything over there. They haven’t changed one bit.

If it’s anything like the dipshits posting in every Facebook Razorback group, I can only imagine.

Newcomers are already starting to get to know each other, minus Fall and whoever we end up with. Team building has started. Need to get the last two guys on campus working. Soon!

This is what I am curious about, if we don't land Nelson. Who will the staff put the full count press on for that last spot?

Probably see what graduates are tampered with and enter the portal this summer.

Probably sees more playing time and offensive freedom, even though he and Brazile would have been on the court together a lot.



Weak minded players going that route imo.

It all depends on what the NBA told him. If they see him as more of a complimentary big man we'd have a shot with our roster.

If they see him as a volume outside scorer then Bama would be better IMO. What better way to improve for the next level then to play more minutes on a team where he would get to shoot a lot.

If then NBA says he needs to be a better defender then we'd be in the lead IMO.

A 6’11” dude shooting 27% from three is the last guy I want with outside volume.

Which is my point. If the NBA says you need to improve your 3 point shooting and Oats says you can fire away here then that is where he will go.

Grant Nelson is unlikely to make his decision today, a member of his family tells me.

It could be a few more days before the NDSU transfer announces where he will attend college, as he’s weighing all aspects of both schools before he comes to a decision.

If that's true that he's not ready to decide or announce yet I think that's good for us.

Both schools insiders have pretty much been leaning Bama, but saying it's not over. If he's not ready to pull the trigger then we have given him something to think about, or negotiations are ongoing.

I think it can only be a good thing for the Hogs since he has been rumored to be going to Bama since he left there.

All the media 'insiders' kept saying decision by Saturday or Sunday. Now it's 'whenever we decide.'

If anything that is actually probably a good thing for Arkansas. Feels like he had his mind made up and is now probably getting a mountain of cash thrown at him by our NIL and needs to step back.

All just speculation, however. I don't think anybody knows much of anything anymore.

This.

It's rare to see no leaks from either side on something like this. Everyone involved is being tight-lipped.

For every 3 offensive put backs he gets, he can shoot one 3. Or two offensive and 3 defensive rebounds etc. 2 blocks=1 3pt attempt. You wanna shoot 3's? Earn them!!

Not like we need him to shoot a bunch of 3's anyways with Brazile.

Trevon is still mocked #23 overall for 2024 right now.
