The Arkansas coaching staff, led by head coach Dave Van Horn, has signed another Top 10 recruiting class, inking 19 student-athletes to National Letters of Intent or as committed walk-ons.
Hitting coach and recruiting coordinator Nate Thompson led the assembly of the Razorbacks’ class that ranked inside Perfect Game’s Top 10 classes for the sixth straight year at No. 3 and checks in at No. 8 among Baseball America’s best classes. The Hogs recruiting class is comprised of 11 position players and eight pitchers hailing from 10 different states, including six from Arkansas.

Seeing that 4-6 of our guys are going to likely go pro?
Have we ever looked where our recruiting actually stacks up with who makes it on campus? Is that looked at any where and how we compete with the other schools besides Vandy?
Do we get the same level of kids on campus as others or are rankings highly inflated with commits that will never make it?
Just curious.

Sounds like we may land OU freshman outfielder transfer Jace Bohrofen. Highly ranked recruit from perfect game, hit .252 as a freshman for the Sooners.

Jace Bohrofen announces his transfer from Oklahoma.
Was a top-40 recruit before his freshman year at OU.

Seems like a good trade for Mike Woods

If Stovall isn't taken in early pics of rhe 2nd Round, I think it'll be pretty obvious he's playing for the Hogs next season. Our potential lineup is going to be truly elite offensively.
With Goodheart, Welch, Slavens, Moore, and Wallace returning and transfers Michael Turners, Jace Bohrofen, and Landry Wilkerson, there will be so much offense. We could be so much better offensively, Its scarey. Then you potentially add in Stovall.

Muncy got drafted 25th overall. I assume he won't be making it to campus in the fall.

This is exactly what happened. Sorry guys.

Muncy and Bishop will sign.
Bishop could really improve his stock by coming to school, but it just seems like he is going to sign no matter what.
