Men's Basketball
UPDATE: Hill apparently returning to Hogs, disputing previous reports
Arkansas has created a ripple at the SEC’s spring meetings in Destin with a report that freshman Justice Hill won’t be playing either basketball or football.
It appears an earlier report that Arkansas freshman Justice Hill would not be returning for either football or basketball, per media outlets and Hill’s own Twitter account.
Y’all be bored lol

Pig Trail Nation basketball analyst Kevin McPherson then had a Tweet stating sources that Hill was going to be back on the court for Eric Musselman’s Hogs.
Per sources, reports that Arkansas freshman PG Justice Hill @_justicehill "will not play … basketball at Arkansas next season" are not accurate … Hill signed w/Hogs during Nov c/o '19 early period, graduated early from LRChristian in Dec, joined Hogs in Jan to practice as RS. pic.twitter.com/FqqlkEFPx1

Trey Schapp at The Buzz in Little Rock reported earlier in the day that Hill wouldn’t be playing either basketball or football.

Hill had signed to play for Mike Anderson with the men’s basketball team, but sat out the spring semester after leading Little Rock Christian to the 5A state football championship in December.
He was named player of the year in the state in football last season.
Football coach Chad Morris told the media on numerous occasions he was welcome at spring practices, but didn’t attend any.
As we said in the initial story, there are sure to be updated.
