Darren McFadden is the only player I can remember asking for the Alabama crowd to get louder on 3rd and 2 and then running through two guys for 3 yards. Y'all use that term "beast" too loosely. 5 was a beast.

Never thought this was possible, but Arkansas intimidated Gonzaga in that game. Kinda bullied them at times. That’s the type of performance that demands respect.
Finebaum trashed the Sam Pittman hire/introductory presser all week. Sam then goes on his show, super humble & classy, breaks the biggest SEC's biggest story of the day (Odom) on his show, then ends it with a sincere, "Thank you for being good to me." That's checkmate man.
Vandy returned most of its roster from a super regional club & was preseason No. 1 in the nation.
DVH lost several starters, was predicted 3-5 in SEC West, but won the division again and his

are a projected national seed.
Who's really Coach of the Year in the SEC?

fans will wake up still mad, and it's because they finally have a product worth caring about again. They play so hard. Last few years, down 17-0 it'd be 38-0 quickly. Those days are over. Got screwed Saturday, but I bet they'll keep fighting.

Under Pittman, Arkansas has landed the No. 2 player in Oklahoma twice (Myles Slusher, AJ Green). Now the Hogs add No. 1 for 2023 in Luke Hasz.
Pretty weird to write about Arkansas having the No. 3 class in the nation no matter what time of year it is.
Never seen Arkansas football attract this much talent for unofficial visits. I mean quality and quantity. They're riding a huge wave of momentum after last season.

' class was ranked 120th at 5:30 a.m. Wednesday. Now up to No. 58. Razorbacks need a big January but early signing went about as well as one ask for given the situation.

Pretty rough first two days but the last two have been good. Appreciate the continued thoughts and prayers for my baby girl. She’s been so tough and I’m proud to be her daddy. Mason Lynn West
Two years ago, Arkansas entered its bye week coming off a 45-19 home loss to Western Kentucky and in the middle of a 20-game SEC losing streak. 5-3 with a chance to win a few more ain't so bad.
Credit to Hunter Yurachek. Got the whole sports world talking about Arkansas. The Hogs have a seat at the big boy table. Muss also deserves credit for re-establishing that. What a night.
Wild day and one that I wasn’t expecting for a few more weeks. New baby girl arrived this afternoon. 6 lbs, 11 ounces, 20 inches long and so pretty. Everybody is doing OK.
Hypothetical: Normal season,

wins 3 SEC games and goes 3-1 in non-con with a loss at No. 2 Notre Dame. Avoid additional opponents Florida and Georgia and finish 6-6 overall. You go from 2-10 and 0-19 in the SEC to 6-6 and 3-5 in SEC play. Pittman is Coach of the Year.
4-star E'Marion Harris' first offer came from Alabama right after his freshman year. That's heavy. Never once made a single 'look-at-me' tweet in 3 years. No drama, no lists, just worked and stayed quiet. Not saying it's right or wrong, but it's rare and should be recognized.
Three of UT's last 4 recruiting classes were ranked 3rd, 7th and 10th. He somehow lost to 5-7 Maryland (again), 6-6 Oklahoma State (again), and WV at home. Beat 3-9 Tulsa, 5-7 K-State, 6-6 Baylor, 5-7 Texas Tech and 3-9 KU all by a TD or less. Overachieving? Come on now Tom.
I think Kirby will get SEC Coach of the Year, but nobody has done a better job than Pittman. Arkansas is in position to win 9 games in Year 2. This week 2 years ago, they lost their 19th straight SEC game. They'll talk about this turnaround for years to come.
Muss has beat the likes of Kentucky, Gonzaga, Kansas and Duke in three straight seasons. Almost impossible to beat at home regardless of opponent when the Bud is like it was tonight.
For those who asked if Arkansas' involvement with Kelly Bryant might impact KJ Jefferson's commitment, here's a text from KJ a few minutes ago:
"I am 110% an Arkansas Razorback."

Bumper Pool leads the SEC with 31 tackles through 2 games. Grant Morgan is second in the league with 28, and Jalen Catalon is sixth with 22. De'Vion Warren's 25.6 yards per catch ranks second in the conference.
BREAKING: Former Georgia Tech DE Jordan Domineck has committed to Arkansas. Another nice transfer addition for the Hogs. Here’s the story

Takes a lot to get me riled up but I can't tolerate anybody talking bad about my state. People have no idea what we have here. If you don't love it here, there's 49 other options. Pick one.
BREAKING: 4-star TE Luke Hasz of Bixby (Okla.) has committed to Arkansas. Hasz is the nation’s No. 59 overall target and the Hogs’ 10th highest-rated high school addition in the modern rankings era.

Added NICU to the list of weird places I’ve written a commitment story. Day 12 in here. Doing well, just hoping she can go home soon. Appreciate the continued thoughts and prayers.
