Saturday Hodge Podge

* It’s Senior Day for Vincent Hunter, Charles Thomas, Sonny Weems, Steven Hill, Darian Townes and Gary Ervin. What would you say is this group’s most memorable moment? It’s kind of strange to say this about a group that is in halfway decent shape for a third consecutive trip to the NCAA, but they haven’t produced an abundance of good memories. I’d vote for the come-from-way-behind upset of Tennessee, then ranked in the Top 10, in Knoxville two years ago.

* Nolan and ASU continue to flirt. According to the linked article, Nolan had this to say about Jonesboro: “It’s very progressive looking …” Apparently, he didn’t try to buy a drink while he was in town.

* Did you spend last night tossing and turning, repeatedly waking up drenched in night sweat, as you fretted about the Hogs’ chances of making the NCAA? Brandon Marcello of The Slophouse has the latest projections covered for you.

* That ‘ole hatin’ feeling: Looks like the renewal of the Razorback-Texas A&M football series is pretty much a done deal.

Enjoy today’s game. Let’s hope we’re still in the NCAA picture when it’s over.

on the topic of these seniors most memorable moments:

-The 94-91 win over Missouri this season was really exciting.

-The win over Florida 2 years ago in overtime. There was only about 10,000 fans that made it to BWA since Fayetteville was covered in a sheet of ice…

-The SECT run last year…

Yeah there aren’t many. But basketball isn’t necessarily a sport that leads to many memorable moments.
