FROM THE VAULT Sidney Moncrief is a Basketball Hall of Famer and a member of the legendary "Triplets" who led Arkansas to the 1978 Final Four. We start our conversation with the five-time NBA All-Star about what he's most proud of in his career (3:25), what growing up in Arkansas was like and how he started playing basketball.

Moncrief tells us what made him a great defensive player (37:35) and even shares a hilarious Michael Jordan story (40:16).

FROM THE VAULT Joe Adams' football career could be summed up with one word: Electrifying. He returned five career punts for touchdowns—third in SEC history—won national awards and was a first-team All-American. But his time as a Razorback wouldn't have happened without a last-minute change of heart. The signing day decision to play for his home-state Razorbacks meant the Hogs would be loaded with some all-time greats. But Adams didn't want to take on the task of stepping into another legend's number. Adams made No. 3 his own, dazzling fans and opposing defenses alike with his shiftiness and speed as he became one of the best receivers in school history. Now, having been inducted into the Razorbacks' Hall of Honor, Adams' spot as an Arkansas legend is secure. -------- The full video version of your favorite Hog Pods, including behind-the-scenes stories and insights, is available exclusively on HogsPlus.com Follow us on social media!

FROM THE VAULT Anthony Lucas was ahead of his time. The talented receiver made big play after big play and rewrote the Arkansas record books in the late '90s. Those records would stand until the age of wide-open offense came to college football. And yet he still holds the career record for most 100-yard receiving games. He's one of the greats. But how much did he have to overcome to get there? Lucas didn't have a good enough ACT score to qualify out of high school. But instead of going the JUCO route, he went ahead and enrolled at Arkansas, focusing on his grades. When he got on the field a year later, he made an impact. But the good times wouldn't last: Lucas suffered a season-ending knee injury in the first game of his sophomore season. And to top it off, his coach got fired. But Anthony Lucas isn't the type who wants pity. Instead, he got to work. And he became one of the best receivers in school history, responsible for countless fan-favorite moments. -------- The full video versions of your favorite Hog Pods, including behind-the-scenes stories and insights, are available exclusively on HogsPlus.com Follow us on social media!

FROM THE VAULT Over thirty years ago, something happened that would change the course of Arkansas athletics forever—the Razorbacks left the Southwest Conference for the SEC. It's a move that has been a boon for the Razorbacks—not only did they join what's become the best conference in collegiate athletics, but the financial benefits have allowed Arkansas to be nationally competitive with some of the best facilities in the country. But the move didn't happen overnight. It took thought, planning and vision from legendary Razorback athletic director Frank Broyles. Without him, who knows where Arkansas might've ended up? So how did everything come together? What were those meetings between Arkansas and the SEC like? And what made the Razorbacks attractive to a league looking to expand? In this episode, former SEC commissioner Roy Kramer takes us back to how it all happened… with the help of archived audio from the late Frank Broyles. -------- The full video versions of your favorite Hog Pods, including behind-the-scenes stories and insights, are available exclusively on HogsPlus.com Follow us on social media!

Hagen Smith is Arkansas' new all-time strikeout leader. But, his pitching prowess didn't happen by chance—for Smith, mediocrity has never been an option. He's had success throughout his career with the Hogs', but it has never been enough for him. After underperforming, in his eyes, last season he made it his goal to be the top pitcher in the country.
