Is this the first time Arkansas has not had a African of any kind on the XC roster?
they dont list incoming freshman yet, but how long has it been since the Hogs did not have an african?
since the 80's is my guess.

I was on the team from the late 80's to the early 90's and we didn't have any Africans until Godfrey arrived from Blinn in 95. The only African before that was Jako Erasmus from South Africa. He was very talented, but only lasted a year before he went home.
They have had one or two, almost every year, for quite a while, but most of those guys were from JUCO. They are banned from JUCO recruits for a couple more years.
Arkansas is going to suffer from the NCAA Ruling on the Tyson Gay case. They are losing scholarships and JUCO's for a long enough time that they are not going to be anywhere near what they have been. They might survive XC, but they are not going to in T&F (that is already evident).
The hogs will win indoor nationals next year.
arkansas will break the ncaa record in the dmr at tyson or ncaa. the mclary twins will get it done.
