To commemorate the 100th season of Arkansas basketball, I took on the task of ranking the top-100 basketball players in program history.
It was very much a passion project, and I'm sure there will be plenty of disagreements, but I tried to be as objective as possible while also taking into account stats and accolades from individual players across all eras.
