It's the same sort of rivalry that Arkansas thought it had with LSU... one-sided. The thanksgiving game doesn't feel like it means as much as a fan (I have the same excitement to watch us okay Missouri as I do when we play Vanderbilt). You all have had our number, but fans irritation is focused more on our coaches and players, bit with Missouri. But this is just an opinion, so take it as that.
I agree. The talent is there, but the experience isn't. If we had this team another season, I think we would see a difference in being able to close out a game and play with more consistency. It will be interesting to see how we do. I am also interested to see how Musselman learns from this year with such a young team.
It was not the mistake, it was the lying about it afterwards. I hated to see him go, but it was the right call. Even without the lying, there was potential for a lot of issues with recruiting and focus of the team after his mistake. I feel for the guy and always love watching his offenses play. Wish things could have been different with his tenure here.
This game worried me more than any other game this season. Petrino is a coach who can create mismatches and cause trouble for most teams in the FBS. ASK Oklahoma State last year. I was proud to see our players deal with adversity and mistakes throughout the game and not lose focus.
At first, I was a little irritated that it was an early game on ESPN... but thank goodness. A night game "between the hedges" would be even more to ask from this team.
I am not sure if he can throw as well as Newton could. But he still has plenty of time to get better.
I've always thought if Sam Pittman didn't leave Arkansas for Georgia, Bielema may still be Arkansas' coach. Things went down hill fast after he left.
Please continue with this hatred of Saban as an Alabama fan. This is hilarious! I hope you're also a retiree who hates social security who worked as a roofer who hated when it hailed while living in America and hating the constitution This is great! I really hope you're a real person and not just a troll!
That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard someone from Alabama say
As long as he didn't say it about Chad Morris, I'll take it
I'm the same. Northwest Arkansas is sort of an anomaly with it's population and housing the headquarters of Walmart, JB Hunt, and Tyson (three of the largest companies in the world in the respective categories). Bike trails will take from south Fayetteville up to Bentonville with Breweries all along the way. You have plenty biking, hiking, kayaking, and mountain climbing within a short drive away. Don't hate. No dis on any of the other cities. I have been through many and think they are great.
"And the world is flat with the sun revolving around Arkansas."
They stopped payments before the pandemic, so I don't really think that is the case, publicly. My understanding is that he was taking jobs well below the average salaries. With all this being said, from everything I think I understand about the case, they should pay.
I agree. It's possible that if Pittman would have stayed at Arkansas when he left for Georgia, we may still have Bielema as our coach
Hopefully he is just keeping his options open and waiting to decide on who teaches out and who is hired as coaches once all the dust settles. Can't blame the kid for looking out for himself. It's the smart thing to do.
don't make assumptions. We have no idea what the offensive philosophy will be. Whatever it is, I think he is smart enough to coach to the current players strengths
Bret Bielema would still be the Razorback coach if Pittman didn't leave for Georgia. Excited to see who he can bring in as coordinators and how the offense scheme plays out.
The problem with this is if he does not work out, he will not be part of the program anymore. Head coaches don't go back to being tight ends coaches at the same school. He has been one of the few bright spots and to out him in a situation like this is absurd. It will be interesting to find out how they fk'd this search up so bad.
Morris was put in a rough position when he started, losing out on the first early signing period, being hired by Arkansas board of directors (who should take more responsibility for this than anyone) without an athletic director, and lacking the experience needed to get a team out of the basement. Even though I feel like we made the right decision,I feel for the young men losing their coach. I'd love to see Barry Lunney Jr. Have a miracle in one of these games and hope with whatever happens, he stays with the program. Good luck to Coach Morris and appreciate his hard work, even though the end result was not what anyone wanted.
Dear God, I hope you're right. I have seen so many people wanting Mike Leach... He will not win in the SEC. Arkansas football will struggle no matter who we hire I'm afraid, but hopefully I'm wrong.
Bunch of so called "life-long hog fans" giving-up mid season since 2011.
I did not say keep him for a decade. I said let the man coach, see how we finish. Razorback fans are are what's wrong with this program. Giving up on the program midseason and jumping ship is a common theme over the last decade.
Since 2008, the average head coach at Arkansas has lasted 2.7 years; if we fire Morris after this season, 2.5 years. If Morris is able to get a top 25 recruiting class and win a couple of unexpected games, give the man a chance. Fire Coach Morris after this year, be prepared to keep losing for another decade.
The last one you mentioned really got to me. After an emotional pick, your putting in a cold QB with the best arm on the team who has been licking his chops on the sideline. He was not going in to settle for a field goal.
