Gafford feels at home on return trip to the Hill

Arkansas power forward commitment Daniel Gafford made his first trip make to Fayetteville since his pledge to the Hogs in August.

He was able to take in the Razorbacks’ practice that was open to the public before the football Hogs’ game against Auburn on Saturday.

“They pretty much made it seem like I was already a player on the team and I’m still in high school,” Gafford said. “They wanted me to shake everybody’s hand to get to know some of the players on the team. I felt like I was welcomed to the team.”

Gafford, 6-10, 214 pounds of El Dorado picked the Hogs over scholarship offers from Florida, Kansas State, Virginia Tech and others.
