John Calipari isn’t holding back—he’s calling this year’s Arkansas team the kind of tough, gritty squad he loves to coach. After last season’s rocky start and a “fragile” locker room, Calipari says he can finally push his players hard without worrying about breaking their spirit. Monday’s 103-74 win over James Madison showed off that new edge, with freshman Meleek Thomas dropping 28 points and the team forcing 14 turnovers. With a brutal non-conference schedule behind them and Tennessee up next, Arkansas fans, do you feel this team is built for a deep SEC run? #Sports #ArkansasBasketball #Calipari
