THE REAL PROBLEM WITH HOGS BASKETBALL

 I posted another article about the basketball program and after 6 games I am still not impressed.  The 6-0 start and top 5 recruiting class has made Arkansas fans delusional.  But, that's how fans are.  Some fans believe if you are not bragging about the program or always thinking positive you can't be a fan.  Newsflash, it's okay to tell it like it is and still be a fan.  

The real problem with the Hogs??  The inside game or rather the lack of is going to be a big problem for them.  Yes, folks that's the same problem they had last year.  Did anyone watch them play against UCA?  They got out rebounded by a team that won't come close to winning their own conference.  You heard me right.  Out rebounded by a Southland Conference team.

The biggest problem last year was lack of size.  And once again it's the same problem again this year.  

There are many fans that are so excited and actually believe that Muss is doing a great job.  My question is how?  There argument is that he won 20 games his first year.  Yes, he did.  With  MA players.  They were freshman the year MA got them.  Remember MA had nothing to work with when he first got here.  Muss had 3 returning starters and 8 players that played allot of minutes.  Those 20 included zero wins against ranked teams.  Arkansas was not headed to the NCAA last year and the looks of it will not get there this year either.  But, somehow fans still want to say this is better.  I say to you fans that believe that are delusional and refuse to see real facts.  Must be Trump supporters.

Jets need Brandon Allen at QB: Why the Broncos turned to Brandon Allen as backup quarterback Allen, a 2016 sixth-round NFL draft pick from Arkansas, was picked up on waivers from the Rams

I have watched this game tonight between Browns and Jets and I am convinced that the Jets who have gone through 2 QBs do not have legit QB on the team. Brandon Allen, Dak Prescott and Chad Kelly all have equivalent stats in SEC and got drafted same time.  I think if Brandon was with NY Jets he may be viewed as a star. It is 3rd qtr and no Jet QB has completed any pass beyond the line of scrimmage. Kyle Fredrickson, The Denver Post  Broncos quarterback Brandon Allen speaks to reporters on Monday, Sept. 2, after being released by the Rams and picked up by Denver. Allen will be starter Joe Flacco’s backup on Week 1 at the Raiders. By  KYLE FREDRICKSON  |  kfredrickson@denverpost.com  | The Denver Post September 3, 2019 at 6:00 am Brandon Allen described his previous 48 hours as a “whirlwind,” because he’s still spinning from a Sunday morning phone call.

Now or never for Razorback senior Jamario Bell

https://247sports.com/college/arkansas/Article/Jamario-Bell-Arkansas-Razorbacks-production--134243362/ Jamario Bell  has finally settled into a position at defensive end for Arkansas, and he has one more opportunity to leave his mark as a senior in 2019. Bell, 6-5, 265, played in 11 of 12 games for the Hogs in 2018, racking up 20 total tackles and 11 solo stops. Athletic for his size, the Junction City (Ark.) product showed out in a 37-33 loss to Ole Miss at War Memorial Stadium, making a tackle for a 5-yard loss, forcing a fumble and hurrying the quarterback. The big end showed flashes of greatness, but he needs to put it all together in his final season of eligibility. “Jamario, same way, now it's time,” Arkansas head coach  Chad Morris  said. “It's time. You've been here, been in the program, you're from Arkansas it's time now to really take it over the top. Really come in here and really make a difference in your position room. We've challenged him, C

Polarizing Petrino remains person of interest

Like It Is: Polarizing Petrino remains person of interest By:  Wally Hall     Published: Thursday, August 8, 2019 Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino talks to his team during a timeout during the second half of an NCAA college football game against Kentucky Saturday, Nov. 25, 2017, in Lexington, Ky. Louisville won the game 44-17. (AP Photo/David Stephenson) When David Bazzel announced Bobby Petrino was going to speak at the Little Rock Touchdown Club this year, it sparked a debate among fans, especially on radio talk shows. Why? First, attendance is not mandatory. If you don’t want to hear what Petrino has to say, don’t go. Secondly, what did Petrino do to the University of Arkansas? Yes, he made one mistake, the same mistake that is made way too often every day all over the world. He paid dearly. It cost him his job, and he’s been tip-toeing home for chili ever since. The surprise of Petrino coming doesn’t have anything to do with him getting fired at Loui
