Credit to Dudley for the notes:

• DVH gives shout out to all the coaches who won SEC coach of year in the fall

• Happy fall was a healthy one and excited about what this team can achieve

• Position depth is great, makes it all a great battle for lots of spots

• Feels like he has 4 really good catchers when you normally are lucky to have 1 1./4

• Hudson White came the farthest defensively; Parker Rowland had an outstanding offensiverly; Ryder Helfrick is the future, but will also catch a lot this season; Hudson Polk really same on

• Kendall Diggs is the RF

• OF Ty Wilmsmeyer didn't hit this fall, but was good defensively; Will Edmunson looked good and Jayson Jones and Jack Wagner could play out there, too.

• 3B is Peyton Holt, Jared Sprague-Lott and Jayson Jones

• 2B is Peyton Stovall's with JSL and Jones there as well.

• 1B Ben McLaughlin and Jack Wagner

SS Wehiwa Aloy, Nolan Souza and JSL

• Hagen Smith, Kendall Diggs and Peyton Stovall named captains

• Handed out SEC championship rings. DVH mad that people seem to have forgot that. Feels they didn;t get enough credit for over coming as much as they did.

• Smith, Brady Tygart and Mason Molina head up starters. Also mentioned Parker Coil, Gage Gaeckle, Hunter Deitz, Ben Bybee and more

• DVH doesn't think the team is taking a step back at any position except possibly OF.

• DVH notes that he was not really a fan of getting rid of divisions as will be the case next season and he voiced that opinion to the SEC.

He knows now there will be times when they don't play their current Western Division rivals and he's not happy about that. But his happy that Texas and OU are entering league.

• Really happy with Arkansas' new recruiting class, especially under the current rules. Believes that the landed players that will make it here and contribute right away.

Also pleased with new Arkanas Edge NIL collective and with anything that helps him compete with teams that don't have to stick with the 11.7 scholarship limit per se.

I hate that they give the starting spot at 2B to Stovall who is recovering from a major injury and will need while to get acclimated again.

Jones still not starting at 3rd. Interesting. I obviously like him way more than DVH does.
