Iyiola takes leap of faith to Arkansas

FAYETTEVILLE — It’s not often a prospect commits to a college sight unseen, but that’s exactly what happened with Stetson transfer Abayomi Iyiola (6-9, 210) on Monday.

After talking to the Razorbacks coaches and doing research online, Iyiola, who finished with 19 points and five rebounds in a loss at Duke last season, chose Arkansas over Wake Forest, Georgia Tech and other programs.

“I have not visited there yet, but I plan to do so soon,” Iyiola said. “I chose Arkansas because it’s one of the best universities to earn a degree or masters, and I love the basketball program and the coaching staff.
