After a down year for Arkansas Razorbacks basketball, Mike Anderson brought in some great players for the current year. Two of those players had me excited from the day they signed with the Hogs.
Jaylen Barford and Daryl Macon really made me look forward to this season. Barford was the number 1 JuCo player at the time, while Macon was ranked 3rd as a JuCo transfer.
Many times the thought is that it will take a JuCo player a year or so to acclimate to the team and really get going. Going into this season, however, I personally didn’t think Mike Anderson could’ve afforded another down year.
