Yeah I think ya'll had him committed to play basketball but we lured him away with an opportunity to play football. By the way, I don't think Brandon had even practiced with the team and he didn't enter the game until there was about 7 minutes left and he still got 8 points, a few steals, etc. He looked good.

i think Mitchell was a casualty of LSU's coaching situation when Brady got the can. hope he has a nice career.

yea you're right lob he was committed to LSU while brady was still the coach. i actually thought he was headed to k state at one point to play football but i suppose prince getting canned steered him towards arkansas.

Yes, after that he decided to focus on football. No one really recruited him since they all thought he was a basketball recruit, but Willy Robinson heard about Mitchell from another player we were recruiting (was it Jerico Nelson?) and went to take a look at him. He was committed shortly afterwards.

I believe that is correct.

Did he steal the block while dunking or something?

That's right, it was Mitchell. I was thinking that Mitchell was from the Mississippi Gulf Coast but now I remember why I was mistaken. Someone on Hogville said they met Jerry Mitchell's dad in Biloxi, but I think he's actually from LA.

He got the dunk off a steal, but I'm not sure when he got the block. I just saw a highlight of his steal and dunk.
I'm really excited to see what he can do on the football field and what Petrino can do with a dual-threat QB. BM was 6'4" 220 lbs and had 4.5 speed when we recruited him.

He made a steal, went down for a dunk, was 4-4 free throws, and made a pretty nice turnaround jumper. Looked pretty good in eight minutes of play.
