5 Arkansas Football players that would be studs for Razorback basketball team

Montaric Brown, 6’0″ and 190 pounds

The stud defensive back for the Hogs was superb at intercepting the ball. In fact, the Ashdown, Ark. native recorded an SEC-best 5 takeaways this season.

Brown is great at reading the eyes of the quarterback and anticipating where the ball is going. He’d be a phenomenal player on defense for Musselman.

The Hogs could play zone and you could allow Brown to be a rover and follow the basketball around to try and get a steal.

Treylon Burks, 6’3″ 232 pounds

The departing Arkansas football player is of ideal size and weight. We already know he has incredible athleticism, vertical jump and speed.

Can you imagine Chris Lykes throwing an alley-oop to Burks for a slam dunk? It would be amazing. Or, how about Burks running off some screens to accept a pass and nail a three-pointer?

Burks is one of the most gifted athletes we’ve seen play for the Arkansas football team in some time. He’s now headed for the NFL and we hope he has a long, lucrative career with whichever team decides to draft him.
