In green room at NBA Draft is something recruits will notice and added to his track record could pay off for the Hogs getting players.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — There was a reason for Arkansas fans to be paying attention to the NBA Draft on Wednesday night. A lot of folks weren't simply because no Razorbacks are getting selected, which is the fastest way for viewership at these things to drop off.

Recruits will be watching and Calipari is showing immediately he still has the touch to get the best players to join him. It's hard to remember when the Hogs had this many highly-rated players. It's primarily due to a coach that has a track record of getting them to the NBA. Calipari has coached 58 players to be selected in the NBA Draft — 41 first-round picks including 27 among the top 15 and four as the overall first pick — during his 32-year coaching career and had 28 players on NBA rosters this past season. On top of all that, he's the all-time wins leader among college coaches.
