This right here is what makes me wonder if this can actually work…If deep down BP still has the burning desire to whip everyone’s arse, he will do whatever it takes to get Arkansas back to what it was when he left. The guys can break a defense down and find mismatches better than anyone.

Are we not going to get a BP introductory press conference? Are they waiting for a later date so they can bring him out on the court tonight, or not doing one at all?

They said they actually benefitted defensively from his hyper focus on offense because the defense would by default learn more about things like an O-lineman's responsibilities and that would turn into finding ways to attack. It's not that he didn't let the defense practice, but he also effectively used them as a scout team.
DJ and Javontee Herndon are absolutely thrilled with the hire.
