One of the nation's top forwards, Juwan Morgan received an offer from Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson during a visit to Fayetteville last Wednesday.
Morgan, 6-8, 215 pounds of Waynesville, Mo. has about 10 other offers, including Indiana, Vanderbilt, Washington and Wake Forest. He's also looking to visit Creighton, Vanderbilt and Kansas State this summer.
He said he plans to narrow his list at the end of July and believes the Hogs have a good shot at making the cut.
Morgan, who has a 3.9 grade point average, said the academic support was very impressive. He also likes the player-coach relationships and the freedom Anderson allows his players on the offensive end.
He was named the Nike Youth Basketball League Most Improved Player earlier this month. He's averaging 10.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals a game while shooting 69 precent from the field.
ESPN rates Morgan the No. 23 power forward in the nation and No. 2 prospect in Missouri. Video highlights CLICK HERE
