If the 2 Memphis kids were to commit Madden could be left without a spot available.
If this were to happen this would be one of the best classes in Razorback history but there would still be people on this board calling for Pel’s head for not getting Madden.
Richard….Do you think Kissinger, or Shearin, will eventually be offered? I know we’re in on some very good LB’s this year (Hankins, Wallace, McNair etc.) but I’d like to see atleast 1 of them offered especially with our lack of depth at LB.
Ditto on that RKV.

I doubt another in-state prospect gets an offer unless they show well at one of Arkansas’ camps. I’m not saying it won’t happen before camp but unlikely.
Can you add a “You’re kidding, right?” answer to the poll question?
not me RKV. Madden is someone that is likely to only add to Pelphrey’s high turnover ratio.
of the two memphis kids you mentioned, thomas is 2011, mcafee is 2012 i think. think mcafee offer is just as much bait to get thomas here as anything.
McAfee is 2011 and not just bait.
http://arkansas.scout.com/a.z?s=10&p=8&c=1&nid=4202280
i know mcafee is good but he is also bait
First Kadeem Jack says he will go to prep school, then this… the guy is all over the place, must have the Brett Farve decisiveness gene.
http://www2.journalnow.com/content/2010/may/09/new-york-prep-star-may-go-to-unc/sports/
I can never get enough of watching Kelvin Fisher’s highlights and those long strides.
His ” mentor ” sounds a little shady and may be why he is having trouble making up his mind. He’s not the answer for next year and maybe not later either.
No, Ricardo Ratliffe would have been a more important get than Kadeem Jack. But either one would have been better than nothing.
well with 2 sclalorships left and only 1 if he adds another big guy this year it may be first come first serve next year, or somone has to go.
I think we get Rashard Madden next. I’ve always thought Hunter Mickelson would be the one leave the state.
It’ll be tough for Madden to turn down the UofA now, especially with Fortson gone.
Peterson will be the only true PG on the team next season.
M. Wade and Ricky Scott are combo guards that are at their very best when playing defense.
This is a great situation for Madden to excell as the floor leader offensively.
McAfee’s highlights on youtube show a Steve Francis type of game to me. McAfee is a top 50-60 player in the country. He could fall or rise but right know he’s rated higher than Powell or Ricky Scott. So he’s not just bait. He’d be offered if he played at another school.(IMO)
madden and rivers are out if mcafee and thomas are in right? not just bait, a good player, but he doesnt get offer if his teamate wasnt our most coveted prospect.
who is dangelo harrison, and why does he have an offer from us? a not ranked gaurd in 2011?
*Springdale Har-Ber LB Hunter Kissinger said he and OL Brey Cook will visit with Coach Bobby Petrino on Wednesday.*
Maybe that will be the day Brey commits to be a HOG…
I understand coach Petrino doesn’t do package deals, but is Hunter Kissinger a better prospect than Alan Turner? (the safety we signed out of Junction city last year) I’m just curious….
Wasn’t Alan Turner effectively a “package deal”????
Kelvin Fisher is beast! Pure athleticism…
as much as i’d like to think that bobby p is above doing package deals, it would have looked really really bad to lose the states top two prospects to gus. hopefully alan turner comes in and turns into a player. the kid did have the measurables.
And also, BHF….how quickly you forget that Petrino offered Dakota Mosley, at the last second, before he committed to Auburn along with Dyer as the two sat back and laughed at us.
This seems to be a much better year for ARKANSAS recruiting… Last year, around the time we signed Alan Turner, it kind of seemed like we were scrambling there towards the end… So yes, in my eyes it did appear to be a package deal with Turner and Byran Jones… I don’t know… Maybe he was the highest rated player on their board, but signing him had to help sign Byran Jones.
Now, do we have room for a player like that this year? We seem to have more of a direction in recruiting this year… I feel we will have most of our class filled out by that point, and there probably won’t be any last minute offers going out…
I’m sure the coaches have a plan, and love the fact Brey has been around campus so much this spring..
in hindsight, on the alan turner signing, i’m glad we signed him now with gordon leaving. hope turner makes it to campus.
my understanding with mosley was that as we moved down our board, mosley’s name finally came up. nothing more than that.
GonzoHog said: “Peterson will be the only true PG on the team next season.”
That is not accurate… J. Nobles is a true point guard. He played pretty well down the stretch last year… Now Peterson might be better don’t know I have never seen him play. But we will have 2 true points next year…
neither one of those players, Nobles or Peterson are “true point guards” if a true point guard has loads of assists and is a prolific scorer.
Pingback: Monday Hodge Podge « MrSEC.com
Four-star defensive end Jalen Grimble surely made Trojan fans grin when he announced Saturday his intention to attend USC….guess this why hes not coming to visit
McAfee is rated just as high as Mickelson and Ross I am pretty sure. Or right around that same area.
To say he is bait is re-donk-ulous!
This should be exciting guys. We are making our way back into Memphis where 4 and 5 star basketball players are churned out like it ain’t no thang, and also more importantly where most of the best Arkansas Razorback basketball teams of all time landed most of their top players.
I would credit this much less to us wanting Thomas and much more to Pelphrey putting an emphasis on that area of recruiting.
But…if you did want to credit a player for this it would be current/incoming freshman Mardracus Wade. Anyone remember the article where he talked about how big Arkansas use to be in Memphis, and about him and the Memphis kids brining Arkansas back to the top? I do…but I can’t find the link because it was either right before or right when he committed that is published.
I think Wade is close to these other Memphis prospects, and with him and Pelphrey and Ostrom’s focus on Memphis recruiting that we are going to see a lot more going on there.
I love the idea of Madden being a Hog, but if McAfee committed first I think you have to accept his commitment. He has offers from Arkansas, Auburn, Memphis, Miami, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, and South Carolina according to Scout.com and I am sure there are more. And he is a top100 ranked player and a 4 star by both Rivals and Scout. ESPN has him ranked as a 93… That is really good by the way.
Scout lists Arkansas as his leader as well, just like Richard said above.
Oh and he is a 2011 recruit like Richard said above, not a 2012 recruit like one or two people seemed to be confused about.
Being a Memphis kid I am sure he has the tough hard-nosed defense to go with his offensive creating and play making abilities. That is what we need a bunch more of to get our program back, and what we took a great step forward with when we signed Wade, Scott, and Waithe.
Now if we can just figure out this mystery recruit nonsense….hahahaha
I can’t help myself every time I think about this. I noticed in some places I read and listen that Otis from Rivals defended his mentioning this mystery recruit possibility by saying Richard, Dudley, and himself all were told the same thing.
But from what I can see Richard never posted about it. That is because you are first class Richard. First class.
I wouldn’t post something like that either until I knew a name or something solid and concrete.
He may end of being right, and his source may end up being solid like he says he was on the Petrino hire. I just don’t see it happening unless this kid is truly a top notch player. Pelphrey needs to keep any extra scholarships for the 2011 class that he can with all the top talent showing high interest.
Just think if Madden and McAfee both want to be Hogs but can’t because Pelphrey offered some 2 or 3 star SF or PF that is just another body…
you think we have a better chance of getting thomas with mcafee or not? with. so on some level he is bait for thomas, no matter how he is ranked. just so happen this bait is a really good player too, so its a good reach. and due to maddens outrageous temper, a safer reach at that.
I see what you are saying, but I guess I just don’t like to word bait or even package deal for this.
I think it is a lot more like I said a few posts up that Wade was talking about in the old article.
Arkansas is big in Memphis, and they use to be even bigger. Hell I was at the Pigamid every time and it was rocking, yee haw!
If Wade talks the Hogs up, and a player like McAfee commits then we could increase our chances with Thomas for sure, but also with every other top Memphis recruit in 2011, 2012, 2013 and beyond…
i still say go get a big body if he can. a scholarship is a one year thing these days. if a last minute recruit helps for this year do it. and you never know what will happen next year, a player could leave, or remain injured and lose his scholarship. if pel wants to try and stick around, winning a weak west next year had better happen.
youre right, bait is not the right word, more of an incentive recruit maybe, or something to that effect.
i do enjoy your posts blake. are you a profesional writter? thanks as always for the imput, and well structured oppinions. you are also the only person who seems to respond without making too much fun of me, and its appreciated.
Thanks porkbelly.
I do some freelance writing, and am in the process of building a fast growing Razorback fan site.
I enjoy talking with everyone on here. I have been in my arguments, but I have done a good job for a few months now of just reading, posting my opinion, and leaving it at that.
People will try to “bait” you with an argumentative line. You just have to remember you are here reading because Richard has really good info on the Hogs, and because there can be really good conversations.
Don’t let yourself get engaged in one of the negative ones.
Your posts are always insightful and appreciated… Thanks Blake…
Keep ‘em coming at Born Hog Wild.
Also, Thanks Richard… Blake is right. You do a fine job of leaving speculation and rumors out of your articles… Keep up the good work!
“The Recruiting Guy” is a great place to stay updated, and communicate with fellow HOG fans…
Kissinger and Cook meeting with Coach P. wednesday!!! Gives me a nice warm, fuzzy, feeling. Don’t want to get my hopes up,……….but, they are!! Go Hogs!!
Thanks BHF. I personally have been MIA, but LSH, Razorpride, Jason, and Darius have been keeping some things going. I have just had too much going on. I hope to get back to writing one or two stories a day soon.
I think that J. Nobles played well at the beginning and end of the season. If he improves in the offseason he will be a reliable point guard. In many ways, he was more of a true point guard than Fortson.
Blake, you are a very fine writer. Enjoy reading your stuff.
that is you at born hogwild. alright i’m catching up now. check here and there every day, multiple times this time of year. kudos to all the great work you do for the fans. in all honesty i cant wait till bornhogwild gets rid of that picture of k.jack. LOL. and youre dead right about recruiting memphis again, its a pleasant sight to see that region looking this way again. thanx, go hogs!!!
Once BHW publishes two new stories that one will be bumped down so you shouldn’t have to stare at that remainder any more by the end of this week..
Thanks js.

And of course this is the pic….same one that started up on Facebook about a month ago among some players.

doubt that helmet changes, or at least I hope it doesn’t…
There will be a revolt in the Razornation if they go to that helmet!!
Why? We’ve had white helmets before? I love the look. I’d like an ARKANSAS across the front.
And those stripes down the middle?? I think that helmet sux.
PeytonHillisFTW, true point guards don’t have to be prolific scorers. Both Peterson and Nobles are PG’s in MHO. Jason Kidd is not a “prolific scorer”, John Stockton – not a prolific scorer. Although those guys could score the ball, they were/are hardly prolific scorers.
With guys like Powell, and Rotnei, I would rather have a PG who was not considered a “prolific” scorer – we need a defensive-minded, assist-first, game manager, who can handle pressure, distribute the rock, and then score if needed – ie. Cory Beck.
Hey guys missouri had 2 scouts at the Russellville field house today to check on my friend Mitch Hall
Corey Beck was definitely the engine that drove the car, back in the day. What a class act, leader and player.
I’m with most of you guys on the headgear. Like the Horns, those Hog helmets are recognized and known worldwide. Don’t mess with the headgear.
Not certain of the source, but I just heard on ESPN that Notre Dame, Missouri, Nebraska and Rutgers have been offered to join the Big 10. Any thoughts on possibly UT and A&M to the SEC? There may be some sort of legislative issue involved, as before.
The issue before was texas couldn’t go with out A&M and the SEC would not take A&M bacause they were on ncaa probation.
I want to get in on the love fest too Richard. Most of all — thanks for keeping The Recruiting Guy free!
Check that, it was ESPN News and the “sources” were “rumored”… whatever the hell that is suppose to mean. From everything being written and said, however, the BIG 12 may be in some trouble. Any thoughts?
lol blake, you are treading on thin ice with your last post there
That uniform idea is too bland — ie it could be Nebraska, Louisville, etc. We need something more original and with less stripes on every part of the uniform and helmet.
Our uniforms now, however, are way too frenetic, and i can’t wait to get a sweet new Nike Combat look. I have a couple of ideas, but alas, I am no professional with PhotoShop
Hey Rsv, give us the good word on Mitch Hall… Are the Razorbacks even on his radar, or is he determined to go somewhere else?
I like the helmets and all… Something new…
They said the big 10 network gets paid on a per potential viewer in each state they are in and Missouri would bring them $1.7 million a month.
This guy is a greased lightning Top 150 prospect, and is considering Arkansas –> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zI8-ZlafhEY
That is just the latest comment on the unis. Some guy put them up awhile back saying it was from a Nuke designer. Most of us I think have seen them but thought there was no way those would be them. about 9 players and 20 fans talked about them. Am I just reading too much into things with Thomas saying those “are” our new uniforms? If so its because of the dead time.
*Nike
we should nuke those uniforms. i doubt if that is really a nike design, but if so….START OVER!
The SEC will make the biggest mistake in their whole history is they expand to 16 teams. The only reason this has become an issue is the Longhorns’ lust to join the best conference in the country. Texas wants to get into the SEC because they are already losing recruits to the SEC. All this talk about them wanting to go into the PAC-10 is just a smoke screen to have everyone in the SEC who hate Texas to drop their guard and have the ones who want them in to start doing back-flips when Texas “finally agrees” to join.
If Texas does join the SEC they will naturally start calling the shots (out of Dallas because that will be the SEC West headquarters) and all you have to do to know what will happen next is look at what happened to the Big 12 when Texas ran that conference from Dallas – it was all about them. The other members were trying to break out of the Big 12 after putting up with that crap for about 2 years. As a matter of fact Colorado would have joined the Pac-10 (and the Pac-10 wanted them alone with Colorado State or Utah) a long time ago but Colorado got into all that trouble.
The fact of the matter is the Pac-10 did not want Texas and they used the aTm probation as a scapegoat. Before the SEC jumps head first into this death spiral by adding Texas I wish someone would check with some inside sources from the Big 12 and find out the real reason that conference is falling a part and also the real reason the Pac-10, who needed an 11th and 12th team added years ago refused to take Texas and aTm. I remember when they ran the SWC and they sure screwed them up and we were lucky to escape and even then we had to do it in secret. The Longhorns made the SWC miserable and they were the reason. Then they ran the Big 12 and they screwed them up and made the other members look like rats leaving a sinking ship and so please tell me why would anything change? The fact is it won’t.
The SEC should wait if the Big 10 expands to 16 and see just how that works out – because it won’t – there certainly isn’t any hurry. If these suits who run the SEC want Texas in the SEC then Arkansas should in fact go to the Big 12 because the problem with the Big twelve was not the Big 11 but the f–ked up 1, Texas. They suck and always have. By the way I hope the fans will hold the administrators of the SEC accountable for this decision if Texas is allowed in the SEC because it will destroy a great conference and someone should pay the price.
Wow…Daniel Lasco. The lad is FAST… and runs up the middle incredably well. But the HawgsSports says he has NO interest in Arkansas… am I missing something here? He would be a great catch for the Hogs
If texas, A&M, missouri, & nebraska all leave there won’t be a big 12 to go to.
This is where the Lasco talk is coming from.
http://arkansas.scout.com/a.z?s=10&p=8&c=1&nid=3476005
I do NOT want any TX team (or OK team for that matter) in the SEC. From a recruiting standpoint it would hurt us here in Razorback Nation. Right now we have an advantage recruiting against other SEC teams when we recruit in TX and OK because we are by far the furthest west and neighbor both of those states. And when recruting out of TX and OK (Big 12 schools) we can atleast pull the “we-play-in-the-SEC” card to recruit against other TX and OK schools. If we bring TX and/or OK schools into the SEC we lose some of that pull.
I would rather see us expand the SEC and keep it in the eastern US. Clemson and Fla St sound good to me. Just leave our TX and OK recruiting to us.
Then we can go independent, get our own T.V. contract and/or station, and be independent. I know basketball may be a problem but we could join the Missouri Valley Conference in just basketball like Notre Dame did in the Big East, or maybe even a smaller conference that will almost assure us of going to the NCAA tournament every year and besides we may not even need to join one if we have our own TV network because we could get a lot of good teams to come and play us here just to get TV exposure. Same with baseball, but let’s don’t get back into the same situation that we just broke free from and were very lucky we escaped in the first place.
hog fan in florida — ESPN says he does, maybe one of the sites is outdated. yeah his runs up the middle are particularly impressive
hes not as much of a bruiser running style like Malcolm Brown, but he is super fast and finesse like running style, like Felix Jones
wow, Daniel Lasco is fast! He actually has a long stride, ie. Matt Jones (but he has a better initial burst than Matt). He’s just the opposite of Dennis Johnson. DJ takes about 20 lightening fast steps to cover 5 yards, whereas Lasco covers 5 yards in less than 2 strides.
I’m with you, OkO. I would hate to see the Shorthorns in the SEC, or A&M for that matter. Something surely seems to be wrong in the BIG 12 these days — and UT has always had a highly inflated self sense of importance. I would much prefer kicking their butts every so often in a BCS bowl.
The Razorbacks are in the best conference in the country and if there is an expansion, it should be done in a a very thoughtful and deliberate manner.
Well, Missouri Valley Conference is where our basketball team belongs right now — along with the other SEC West teams
THanks RKV for that link. I found him on ESPN football recruiting. That link has a good quote though — “A very smooth runner, he makes it look effortless.”
Thats exactly what his running style looks like — effortless
when we played in the SWC and played games in texas every year we pulled our fair share of good players out of the lonestar state.Could this not work in our favor again? Just wondering out loud.
We’re playing in Texas every year now against aTm in the best stadium in the state. Who exactly do you want to play and where exactly do you want to play them?
Peyton, it would be very nice to have Lasco…very nice…I just dont see him that interested in Arkansas. He is very impressive…that burst of speed is amazing.
This dude has some interesting smack on the BIG10/12 situation.
http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/story/college-football-expansion-big-10-ask-cfn-051010
PeytonHillsftw I am sry but according to Mitch & him being a good friend let me pit this way he will be wearin g ole miss blue & red sry? I hate to say it but he is not comeing to Arkansas.
Russelville Boi, I figured, seeing as how his brother is playing there. Florida, you may be right, but I would still like to see Arkansas give one last push in showing interest in Lasco — rumor is hes close to making a decision.
He never got an Arkansas offer. I think t
The feeling between the halls and hogs is mutual
What actually happened with brother Matt’s transfer? I mean the actual ‘why’ of it. Only thing I saw as he claimed he got lied to.
*is
got lied to? that would be unlikely, Petrino is straight forward…most likely he did not have the motor or style that Petrino wants in an offensive lineman. I dont think he was promised a starting position right out of the box. Of course I am referring to Matt Hall.
Sounds like there is bad blood between the Hall family and the Hogs staff
No Matt just did not like coach petrino he barely signed with the hogs 2 years b/c I was at the signing ceremony plus they don’t like his style of offense
I still like the idea of raiding the ACC… Add UNC, VT, and FSU to the east, move GT and Vandy to the west… Talk about a SUPER-CONFERENCE…
north carolina would never leave a conference with duke.
“neither one of those players, Nobles or Peterson are “true point guards” if a true point guard has loads of assists and is a prolific scorer.”
a “true” pg is someone who leads your team… usually NOT a prolific scorer more of an assist guy but CAN score if and when needed… the straw that stirs the drink if you will…. Corey Beck was not prolific scorer but true point guard he was…
Rivals is reporting a football commitment.
Hogatexan is right. I completely forgot about J. Nobles.
I haven’t got to see J. Peterson play or even practice yet, so I really don’t have a good idea what kind of competition those two would present Madden with, but you would have to like his chances. He’s a very good player.
It’s hard not to hope we bring in another big man this year, because we need another one really bad, but if we’re not able to bring one in, it betters our chances to bring in more top notch recruits for 2011.
This makes it kind of hard to decide which is better.
MRPRFCT,
Any idea who it might be?
Keaton minor, wr from illinois
* Keante
keante minor commits to hogs. that’s 5 down… roll ‘em in, baby
Keante Minor is listed as an ESPN 150 watch list recruit. Thats 2 with dean. Would be 3 if they didnt downgrade B. Allen….
http://rivals.yahoo.com/arkansas/football/recruiting/player-Keante-Minor-99186;_ylt=AjHtHWRPG2fGOBs2E.KGQ8nzq5B4
I’m almost not looking forward to when Rivals starts ranking some of these kids.
Petrino doesn’t just look at the stars and rankings, he evaluates talent for his system.
From what I’ve read on Jason Allen, he never even considered another school, so sending out game/highlight tape to other programs for evaluation and setting up other official visits never happened.
This probably kept him from recieving more stars and a higher ranking by the recruiting services.
I can’t really speak for the other 4 commits, but I hope everyone realizes what a really good QB commit we have already.
Brandon, maybe?
Sorry Andrew, I mean’t Brandon Allen.
Minor is a tough guy, and a top notch prospect.
I watched video on him when we offered, and I just re-watched it.
What you will see from him is that he gets behind all the defenders in a hurry. The video I watched only showed offensive highlights, so if he is being looked at on defense I cannot comment on that really.
I will say that his HS QB under throws nearly everything and he comes back and has major hops in getting up to get the ball. So if he possibly is being looked at for DB he has the ball hawk mentality.
A very good commit for the Hogs. He looks to me like more offers will come pouring in. Right now it appears just Kansas and Arkansas offered.
He’s on the ESPNU 150 Watchlist. That’s a very good sign. Looks to be another weapon.
http://insider.espn.go.com/ncf/recruiting/tracker/player?recruitId=87813&season=2011&action=login&appRedirect=http%3a%2f%2finsider.espn.go.com%2fncf%2frecruiting%2ftracker%2fplayer%3frecruitId%3d87813%26season%3d2011
I don’t worry about the services rankings because every one of BP’s classes have rated higher 4 years later meaning he did a better job of rating than they did.
Right on, RKV.
He also recruits certain body types he knows will develop into what he wants.
RKV that is exactly right. His classes have moved up more than anyones over his time as a CFB HC. Word up!
keante minor looks like his 35 & not 17
Petrino also stipulates and enforces no-nonsense team guidelines/rules.
Cross that line and you are gone.
When you gain that type of a reputation as a developer of talent and a disiplinarian, most of the commitments will come from the high character kids. Those are always the easier ones to coach up.
Richard, you may already be on this — but i would love to see some highlights on our newest WR commit!
I
I would really like to c petrino get all the 5-stars he has offered but there is probaly only a 30% chance that happens.
Scout has Keante Minor WR East ST. Louis commiting to the hogs
I’d like to see a commit from either of those RBS, Brown or Coe.
Hopefully, a verbal commit from Brey Cook and Keihl Frazier is right around the corner.
And Smothers and Ollison and…
Richard, I see that Keante Minor of East St. Louis Ill. committed to the hogs today. I can’t find any info on this committment. Will you have somehting later?
