FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Somewhere in the world is a little girl named Lily Weber who believes she can do anything.

Lily's a brave one. Far more brave then even most Razorbacks athletes. For instance, yesterday, she came into the room where her mother, Lyndsey, was sitting and said "Don't look outside your door. I'm afraid you might get mad."

A few minutes later, Lily's mother heard her call from the area where she wasn't supposed to look.
"Mom, I'm stuck!" she yelled.

When Lyndsey ventured from her room, she found her daughter at the top of a ladder wearing roller skates. It hadn't been her first big, brave idea of the day. It just happened to be the one that worked out. That's because earlier that day, the little brown-haired girl from Girl Scouts Troop 5099, a group that spans Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas, found the perfect way to help Arkansas defensive back Lorando Johnson find his true NIL potential.

It all started with an innocent text to her mother that put Lyndsey a little on edge. It came complete with multiple star emojis and and light bulb, so she knew her daughter meant business, just not what she was about to get into.

The idea was to make a video to promote the Girl Scout cookies she needs to sell and tag a few people Razorback fans might know on social media on the off chance one might respond and help out. One of those people happened to be Johnson, who is rather active on social media.

Known better to the Arkansas fan base as "Snaxx," the defensive back is a defender of teammates from online trolls, a promoter of any player in the transfer portal he thinks Razorbacks coach Sam Pittman should kick the tires on, and now, he's fittingly, a promoter of Lily's snacks.

Johnson wasted no time following through on Lyndsey's request. Before long, all of his followers were hearing Lily's pitch to buy Girl Scout Cookies as the views shot into the tens of thousands.

Grateful that Johnson had graciously stepped up to help, Lily had one final task for the day. Show her Hogs helper how appreciative she was for his assistance.

So, with the weather being what it is and weeks of NFL playoffs and college basketball looming, make life a little easier. Heed the advice of the crowned Prince of Snaxx and load up on boxes upon boxes of snacks from Lily because nothing chases down cold weather food like a sleeve of Girl Scout Cookies.
