Arkansas impresses 5-star Ron Holland during official visit

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas coach Eric Musselman and his staff impressed ESPN 5-star prospect Ron Holland, and it appears the Razorbacks enhanced their chances with the top 5 recruit.

“Fayetteville, it was more than I expected because I’m used to coming to the country side of Arkansas,” said Holland, who arrived Thursday and left Saturday afternoon. “There’s a whole lot down here. It was way more than I expected.”

Holland, 6-8, 200 pounds, of Duncanville, Texas, narrowed his list to Arkansas, Texas, UCLA, Memphis, Houston, Auburn and Kentucky while also considering the NBA G League in early May.
