Arkansas commitment for football turns into hero on hardcourt

[MuskogeeHogFan]

Jarrod Barnes taking it to the next level in another sport, and apparently taking it to Malik Monk as well.

Barnes scored a team-high 17 points, including 14 in the fourth quarter, to help lead Cabot to a 59-49 victory and state championship. But Barnes' heroics didn't stop there. He also guarded Bentonville (Ark.) 5-star guard Malik Monk, who signed early with Kentucky. Monk had 19 points, but had to work for them. He was 8 of 24 from the field and missed all 10 of his 3-point attempts.

Congratulations Cabot and Mr. Barnes.  I am very happy to see this result.  I expect most fans in Arkansas feel the same way.  I am looking forward to seeing Mr. Barnes in a Hog uniform.

8 of 24 from the field is                    not too good.   In a losing effort.

But Congrats to the hometown hero, and Hog commit, Mr. Barnes.

[Hog are ya]

Puts a smile on my face!

Barnes is already a Razorback legend, before becoming part of the team.

I like Jarod. Good kid, on and off the court.

I think Monk's selfishness was a huge reason so many players on his summer team did not look so good.   Some of the bigs new they were not going to get the ball so why try to post up.
