10:51 update

Durham, 6-1, 180 averaged 21.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6.7 assists whole shooting 50.1 percent from the field, 44.1 percent from beyond the three-point line this season.

He said he picked the Hogs because Arkansas needs him, not wants him. He also said style of play was a big factor in his decision.

He picked the Hogs over scholarship offers from Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, Western Kentucky, Marquette and several others. He plans to sign with Arkansas on April 16, the first day of the spring signing period.
