Just a Few RPIs From Here

Nate Allen writes today about the Razorbacks starting line-up and potential changes.

Scott Cain writes about the Razorback’s current RPI rating. The Razorbacks are currently 59th – a position that does not bode well for the chances of the Hogs making the big dance.

Does anyone at this point in the season seriously think we have an NCAA Tournament quality team? Close you say? Yep, just close.

Who out there thinks Ronnie Brewer is overrated? He's really good, but I’ll repeat what I said before – he wouldn’t start ahead of Scotty Thurman. Those that think he is NBA ready need to be in one of those straitjackets that Nate was mentioning. I know that Nolan was a bit off his rocker towards the end, but I don’t see that Ronnie could have played Nolan’s style. I understand why Nolan wasn't interested in recruiting him.

Speaking of Nolan...he was in Memphis last week for the Memphis – UAB game. He was getting on the refs pretty loudly as I understand. The crowd started getting on Nolan pretty hard. He stood up, held up his NCAA Championship ring and waved it around to the crowd. Pretty funny.

Maybe he'll come wave it for us. That's the only way we might get close to any type of NCAA tournament ring anytime soon.

Close. There's that word again.
