LITTLE ROCK — Announced in a matter of days, the media’s All-SEC preseason team will include only a few Razorbacks.
Such minimal representation can be anything from an omen to an opportunity.
A year ago, Arkansas was one of five teams with only two players each on the three-deep team announced during SEC Media Days.
The Razorbacks and two of the others —Tennessee and Vanderbilt — were a combined 2-22 in conference play. On the other hand, both Missouri and Mississippi State were 4-4 in the SEC and won a total of 16 games.
A year ago, Arkansas’ representatives were first-teamer Frank Ragnow and third-teamer Austin Allen, and neither was a surprise.
