They did see him there, but he was already on their radar and planning to attend their camp the following weekend. So it was kind of a perfect storm. He did receive lots of calls after the futures games though, all from great schools that saw him there for the first time. It was definitely the place to be that weekend!

Fantastic.  Arkansas has a great staff, especially Nate Thompson.  PBR is one of the most recruited events we have ever been to in one place.  Congratulations to you and your son.

Very excited to report that my 2019 committed this weekend. Just want to say thank you to everyone here, you've all provided a wealth of information and helpful advice, even the stuff I didn't agree with was still welcome information and always made me think. Everyone here was very helpful to the process, and to know that whatever weird question or situation I came up with I was not alone. I was at a camp this weekend (the last one!) and found myself giving advice to a dad with a 2020 that's just getting into it, so I am planning  to pay it forward any chance I get.

Son announced on twitter and spent the rest of the 10 hour ride home watching his twitter followers increase and "likes" counter on his tweet, mostly from fans of the school! His first brush with celebrity. He's over the moon.

Go Razorbacks!

 

Small world.  I am pretty sure my son was catching your son at the Razorback camp.  Congrats to him on being a Razorback.  I look forward to watching him in the future.

Fantastic!!! Welcome to the fold. I have this tattooed on my left bicep. Unfortunately, my kid ended up somewhere else and I've had to let him know that if his team plays the Razorbacks, he's just going to have to accept the fact that I'll be in the stands in a Hawg Hat.
