Over five years ago one of the most important members of the 2015-16 Texas Tech basketball team signed his national letter of intent…to play for Arkansas. Now, after an amazing journey that has taken Texas Tech junior forward Aaron Ross from the heights of being a star recruit to the depths of wondering if his basketball career would ever take off, the native of North Little Rock, Arkansas is living up to his potential.
Ross has been a critical cog in Tubby Smith’s rotation all season but his improved play has been invaluable since Texas Tech lost starting forward Norense Odiase to a broken foot on January 18th.
