@WxZachary Paraloma!

If you’re from Arkansas, tell me a small town/community most people have probably never heard of.

Happy Easter, everyone! #HeIsRisen

One of the largest drone shows in North America, celebrating our Lord and Savior on Good Friday, featured 10,000 drones illustrating the ultimate sacrifice Jesus made for us at the "Jesus Jesus Jesus" worship gathering in Texas Simply incredible! 🙏

32 years ago today @RustonRifle hit the shot that put Arkansas up for good in the Hogs 76-72 win over Duke in the 1994 National Championship.

19 years ago, a high school basketball coach put his team manager into a game for the final four minutes. The kid had never played a single minute of competitive basketball in his life. He scored 20 points. Jason McElwain was diagnosed with severe autism at age two. He didn’t speak until he was five. He couldn’t chew solid food until he was six. He wore a nappy for most of his early childhood. As a baby, he was rigid, wouldn’t make eye contact, and hid in corners away from other children. He tried out for his school basketball team every year and got cut every time. Too small. Too slight. Barely 5’6 and about 54 kilograms. But he loved the game so much that his mum called the school and asked if there was any way he could be involved. The coach created a team manager role for him. For three years, McElwain showed up to every practice and every game. He wore a shirt and tie on match days. He ran drills, handed out water, kept stats, and cheered every basket like he’d scored it himself. On 15 February 2006, the last home game of his final school year, the coach let him suit up in a proper jersey and sit on the bench. With four minutes left and a comfortable lead, the coach sent him in. His first shot missed. His second missed. Then something shifted. He hit a three-pointer. Then another. Then another. His teammates stopped shooting entirely and just kept passing him the ball. He hit six three-pointers and a two-pointer. 20 points in four minutes. The highest scorer in the game. When the final buzzer went, the entire crowd rushed the court and lifted him onto their shoulders. His mum tapped the coach on the shoulder, in tears. “This is the nicest gift you could have ever given my son.” McElwain won the ESPY Award for Best Moment in Sports that year, beating out some of the biggest names in professional sport. He’s 36 now. He works at a local supermarket, coaches basketball, has run 17 marathons including five Boston Marathons, and travels the country speaking about never giving up. When asked about that night, his coach still gets emotional. “For him to come in and seize the moment like he did was certainly more than I ever expected. I was an emotional wreck.”

@CoachTatum90 I told our 7th and 8th graders this morning… 1. Do not quit a sport to “focus” on another. 2. Play whatever sport you want to play until you no longer want to play it. 3. If you’re not sure if you want to play, then play. Do not quit until you know you no longer want to play.

I no longer understand football.

THIS. IS. ARKANSAS. BASKETBALL. 🐗🏀

Erika Kirk forgives her husband’s assassin: "Our savior said, Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. That man, that young man, I forgive him." So incredibly powerful. Pray for Erika 🙏🏻

You get 18 summers. Then they're visiting. You get 940 weekends. Then they have their own. You get 6,570 bedtimes. Then silence. Time is the only real currency of parenthood. Spend it wisely. You can't earn more.
