His offense has been talented for awhile now. Will the defense ever catch up?

NOW IM PISSED OFF!!!!!1


But for real though, if Danny Ford and Houston Nutt can get Arkansas to Atlanta with far far far less talent across the board, Petrino can too.

With a healthy Knile Davis, they should be better this very year. He is a game-changer that could get them very close to beating Bama or us in 2012.

You have no idea how Nutt left the program with an empty cupboard do you?

The fact he got results in year 3 was astonishing. I wouldnt have guessed we would be where we are now after year 4.


His first class he recruited just graduated. Just about everyone of them had to play their freshman year because there was nothing better on campus.

He finally can redshirt 90% of a class now (2011 class). The guys he is getting on campus now are bigger and stronger than the other classes. Adams and Wright were the best WR and they were under 6'. The group next year will all be 6'1 at the least and have been in the weight room for a year, some two.


To answer the defense question, it's obvious he isn't a defense minded coach. Which is why he needs a good def cord. Hence why he just fired his previous one.

I don't think we will see a great defense this year. Similar results to last year. Maybe a little better.
