FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – They always say dress for the job you want, and for wide receiver Sam Mbake, that job is Arkansas Razorbacks wide receiver. In an interview on the "Wu Pig Podcast," Mbake showed up in a nice gray blazer with a buttoned up Razorback red and white polo complete with an Arkansas Razorback pin attached to the lapel of his coat. Combine the look with his words, and there's no doubt Mbake looked at the appearance as more of a job interview than simply coming on to shoot the breeze.
quote:
According to Mbake, he technically hasn't left. He said he's still doing rehab for an ACL tear that knocked him out of a potential starting role prior to the season and training with the Arkansas athletics department despite being in the transfer portal.
quote:
Ultimately, the decision to remove Mbake from the team was head coach Sam Pittman's. However, there's no doubt he's hoping the addition of offensive coordinator Bobby Petriino and whomever the new wide receivers coach turns out to be will see he sincerely wants to return to the Razorback program and convince Pittman to give him a second chance. That argument began by explaining what he believes were his mistakes and taking responsibility for them.
quote:
I was crutches for about two months," Mbake said. "So, I would say I take full accountability for you know all my actions as I should, but you know, sometimes like maybe in the mornings, like I might be a little late like a training because I'd be on crutches things like that. But really the whole thing that like sealed the deal that really got me kicked off the team was the morning of the Auburn weekend. I'm trying to recall the date, but I don't remember, but I got pulled over and then that's where they had told me like okay, like just don't come to the game today, which is taught me on Monday."

After the rumored threats he made I see no way back for him at the university.

I'm kinda split here. I'd usually have no tolerance for this type of stuff, but the fact that he's at least showing a little effort to repair the bridge he burned is a step ahead of a lot of these dudes nowadays.
