While John Chavis is coaching middle school, Barry Odom is engineering one of the biggest defensive turnarounds in the country and pulling upsets. Coaching does make a difference, and we are seeing that right before our eyes in Fayetteville.

The officiating crew was totally ill-prepared to make the call in the Arkansas/Auburn game and panicked. Judgement calls are one thing, but being caught off guard is another. The SEC owes UA a big apology. That was a mammoth W snatched away pure and simple.

If you watched the Arkansas/UCONN game and still don’t like women’s basketball something is wrong with you. That was an incredibly entertaining game and Dungee’s performance was on par with any of the great men’s performances in BWA.

Pittman took over the worst Arkansas football period ever DURING a pandemic. You get at least 5 years under those circumstances. At least. 2-0 I’m bowls is huge progress. Good luck if you fire him any time soon.

I would think Yurachek has moved into the feeler stage seeing who would take the UA HC job. The problem isn’t firing Morris. Finding a good replacement is. You don’t want to fire him and somehow end up with a worse coach if that’s possible. This could be very tricky.

Starkel was not a bad QB when he arrived at UA. All QBs struggled under Morris and Craddock. It cost them their jobs and now has left Starkel as damaged goods.

No college coach in the country is going to play a nonconference road game with 24 hours notice when they are playing three conference games the next week. Period. Schedule the game next year. I’m pretty sure ASU will show up.

It’s time to turn the page, but this is how the BJHS 9th grade’s perfect season was ended Thursday. A few veteran officials confirmed this was absolutely the wrong call. No one can believe the game was allowed to end this way. Never seen a more controversial ending to a game.

Hog fans turned off by Leach’s “tirade” aimed at a reporter. But 13,000 people signed a petition to bring back Bobby Petrino. Makes sense. BTW: I always side with the reporter, but this guy may have gotten what he deserved. It happens sometimes.
