Transfer portal news: Arkansas could land one of the top players

John Calipari is known for being one of the most successful coaches of his generation. He’s a college basketball legend, and a lot of that has had to do with his ability to land top players.

That might be the case again in 2025. With the transfer portal just about to close, reports state that the Arkansas Razorbacks might land one of the most coveted players.

They already landed commitment from star power forwards Nick Pringle and Malique Ewin, and they could now get their hands on Dominican G Baker Mazara as well.
