Wow. Great job by the staff even getting listed with this guy.

Was thinking the exact same thing. Top 5 player from Arkansas is impressive to make the list. Doesn't mean much in the end if we don't get a commitment but good to see none the less. Being mentioned with top players doesn't hurt us but also won't make us in the long run unless we land some of these guys which I think we will.

Have to be in it to win it. More players we are involved with only increase our chances of landing one. Previous staff didn't seem to understand that.

Monk is a super athlete who is wired to score.  Several recruits to pay attention to throughout the Peach Jam.
