2007 power forward prospect (a position desperately needed now, but even more desperately needed then) was on campus for a visit during the Arkansas game.  Word is that he had a great time.....blah blah blah.  What is much more interesting to me is that he has yet to be offered a scholarship by the coaches.  Considering how valuable and important that position is, this means one of two things.  (1) There is another player the coaches like more....Josh southern? or (2) They still havent made up their mind.  Considering the recruiting problems of the last few years, I certainly hope it is not #2.
