Arkansas puts on show for top recruits again

For the second straight Saturday, Arkansas had some of of the nation’s best high school basketball players on campus and put on a show.

The No. 18 Razorbacks downed No. x Kentucky 75-73 before a raucous crowd at Bud Walton Arena.

That crowd included Arkansas’ two 5-star McDonald’s All-American signees in Jordan Walsh of Branson (Mo.) Link Academy and North Little Rock’s Nick Smith (6-5, 185), who were introduced during a timeout during the game.

“It was ridiculous how loud it was,” Walsh said. “When we went out on the court, they did the hog call and all I can say is it was just ridiculous, just ridiculous.
