John Calipari and the Arkansas Razorbacks currently sit at seven scholarship players for the 2024-2025 roster, and they are set to host another transfer as well as a highly-rated prospect in the class of 2025 this weekend.

Calipari has utilized the transfer portal heavily since being hired by Arkansas on April 10, with four of the seven players currently signed to the roster coming from the transfer ranks.

He’s also not been shy about dipping into his former team, as two of the four are following him from Kentucky to Arkansas.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the two visitors Arkansas will have on campus this weekend.
