Hogs add another top player

The historic recruiting class for the University of Arkansas men’s basketball program got better with the oral commitment of ESPN 5-star prospect Anthony Black on Monday evening.

Black, 6-7, 198 pounds, of Duncanville, Texas, becomes Coach Eric Musselman’s third McDonald’s All-American of the 2022 recruiting class.

“It was just being able to trust the coaches and know they have my best interest in mind, while also winning a lot of games and having a lot of fun,” Black told ESPN2 about his decision to play for the Razorbacks.

He pledged to the Razorbacks over Gonzaga, TCU, Oklahoma State and the chance to play in the NBA’s G-league during Powerade Jam Fest on ESPN2.
