I really wasn't even a fan of hiring him to coach our special teams.

A coach with a 1-6 Bowl Record. At least much won't change at Arkansas.

3rd in the West, hang the banners


Eh, not sure if you can blame Long & Dorrell for the 3rd place finish, petrino wasn't gonna get any higher than that anyway.

Why not Paul Petrino or McGee if we're going the interim route?

I'm convinced Jeff Long knows nothing about football. He was lucky as shite that Petrino fell into his lap.

John L was also the coach that accepted the Mich State job right before Louisville was playing the Mobile Bowl. UL players were getting texted (not dressed) from friends and family that hre accepted the job. Lousivlle then went on a meltdown and tanked the game. It has been said the mood in the lockerroom was not so joyous.

Another solid character hire by Arkie

only good thing that has resulted from this is hogville crashing a couple of times. Other than that this has been a fricking miserable clusterfrick of a spring for football.

I'm fine with this. If he was still here this would've happened already.

I don't think JMFLS wants to coach much longer anyways

Been preaching this since the petrino fiasco transpired. Long will frick this up...no way we get lucky three coaching searches in a row. We are bound to fail.
