I think he may have had a few classes just under 15 but I would have to look closer
PG only goes back to 2017 in terms of the class recruiting, I will look into finding data on Arky Recruiting going back 3 more years...but...
in 2017 Arkansas tried to sign 20, six were drafted but only two signed. Signed players are not included in the final rankings and they still finished 3rd, behind VU and UF. I looked at VU, they tried to sign 18, five were drafted, none signed, no surprise there.
UF tried to sign 13, 8 were drafted, 3 signed.
along with the 11.7, these also help..........
Disclaimer, I have no idea the $$ amount, some probably small and others maybe a little larger.

Let's put it this way...
Casey Martin and Heston Kjerstad are batting .343 and .336 to lead Arky in batting...they are freshman, so they are definitely CTV recruits...heck the whole line up is loaded (Team BA, .299) and he had a big hand in it...
I'm excited.
Edit: Heck the team BA in SEC Only is .302...
wonder what our record would have been in SEC play if we had 2 guys hit .343 and .336
In SEC only stats...
Carson Shaddy - .395
Eric Cole - .346
Casey Martin - .333
Dominic Fletcher - .325
Heston Kjerstad - .322
That's half the dang line-up.
To answer your question...we probably make the SEC Tourney for cryin' out loud. At least.
A few others picked them too. I was so caught up in picking against Florida I didn't notice.
I wish florida had one major school in their region and I would have picked them

I'm also having trouble because I was really impressed with how Ole Miss was playing in Hoover, but the lay off...UF if they don't get their pitcher back and JJ...I wouldn't feel comfortable picking them based on Hoover...They may be playing possum though.
Yes he can recruit. He did it at Mizzou, then just loaded TCU up then left for Arkansas and he loaded them up. He came in here late and got several top recruits in a short time to finish the 18 class to finish 6th according to Perfect Game. All the top kids in the 18 class were recruited by TV.
Rumor has it that CTV has personally visited with the top draft guys numerous times selling them and their parents on college vs. going Pro out of HS.
