He plays SG.

His coach said Arkansas plans to play him at the point however, so that is why I listed PG.

[widespreadsooie]

Huh? That's strange, I don't think he played a lick of PG in high school and he has a great shot.

[coach, my back hurts]

My first thought was that he was a PG.  I remember hearing of this kid a few yrs ago too.  That is a good pick up.  I was wondering why no other big schools were after him.

Britt being 07 recruit, does that mean he is eligible next fall, or he is a Sr in HS next fall?

He'll be playing for the Razorbacks in the 2007-2008 season, which is this upcoming fall/winter

Do tell. Look like Coach Pelphrey is not playing around.

[U.P. HOGG]

Go Hogs!!   Picking up Sanchez is a great addition.  When is Clarke expected to make a decision?

[wooo]

I heard Britt's coach on the radio.

He said Britt pretty much played point every game during the fourth period. He is a shooter that has ball handling and point abilities.

This class is really starting to look good.

[lookawayquick]

Why would La Tech release him?  Looks like Coach Pel is building that fence around AR.  Take note HDN.

[yraciv]

b/ he asked for a release!  This class may not be the best in years, but we have now will have signed imo the 3 best high school basketball players in AR last year.

Since when did we get James Anderson?

[lookawayquick]

Because he asked......I'm not questioning Britt's ability but I wonder why La Tech would just let him go.  It is my understanding that La Tech did not have to release him.  Couldn't force him to attend school in Ruston but could cost Britt a year of playing time.  Glad La Tech did the right thing, just don't see it happen often.

darn I completely forgot about him!  We got the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th best player in the state this year.

didn't la tech change coachs.  Typically they release athletes when they do.  if asked.

Coaching change.

Anyone remember a guy that had committed to Toledo...then decided to come to Arkansas?

[HogFanLR]

Recent history...I am thinking Patrick Beverely.  Lets hope Brit turns out like that.  he sounds great.  Ron Crawford on DTS thinks he is a very underrated player

I've seen him play many times, and I aslo think he is very underrated.

I can't wait til the season but I dont want Baseball to end

[Tripod1]

I've seen him and he is very good.  Plays point in the fourth quarter because that is crunch time and he is the man to have the ball.  Forrest City played a very up tempo game so he should be quite capable of handling that type of game.  Probably will need to work on his defense some but on offense he can flat out get after it.  Great addition and yes, very underrated.

[slopinhogs]

hey Ugly Uncle,what are you getting this time a girl or a boy. and happy anniversary when it comes around.

does he distribute the ball well, or feel he has to shoot it all the time?
