SEC schools attempting to pluck Derrian Ford out of Portal

Many SEC schools are looking at the former Arkansas Gatorade Player of the Year.

Derrian Ford is one of the victims of Eric Musselman’s new plan to bring in transfers and allow his players from his excellent recruiting class to skate.

As a former Gatorade Player of the Year, Ford has established himself as one of the top players in the transfer portal, especially among SEC schools. 

Ford has been heavily on social media, showcasing his workouts and the long list of schools interested in bringing his talents to their campus. Some schools lost players in the past to Musselman and the Hogs, most notably Trevon Brazile from Missouri.

Where Ford goes should be on the radar for Musselman and fans of the Hogs because he obviously has a chip on his shoulder. The way Musselman has ruled out the young guys during this roster overhaul left a sour taste for everyone across the board.

If Ford stays in the SEC, watch out.
