I just hope Norvell doesn't take the job. He's an up and comer coach, only 38 years-old with a helluva resume. Coming to a program in disarray in the SEC would only set that resume backwards and more than likely would result in him fading into oblivion as a head coach if things didn't work out at ARKY.

Arky should just consider forgetting about this whole football thingy

Csmims•73 months

Not no but hell no

ConfusedHawgInMO•73 months

Arkansas had multiple chances to hire Gus and crapped on him every time.

Arky should go after Hugh Freeze or Lane Kiffin.

TFH•73 months

I wouldn’t want Gus if he paid us to coach here. He’s the Phil Mickelson of college football

Tigrdynasty•73 months

Please explain this analogy. Phil is a top 10 all time professional golfer

Bamasuks•73 months

"He’s the Phil Mickelson of college football". So, he's a Hell of a football coach huh? One of the best ever?

pdawg•73 months

He looks like a middle aged lesbian?

hg•73 months

Dream big, eh?

Drewbie•73 months

I can't believe they thought a take that stupid was worth putting behind a paywall. ESPN forever shining as the beacon of horrible "sports" journalism.

Joey Freshwater was born in Arkansas. The native son needs to come home.

Leach, Norvell and Fleck is who we should be offering.

RockyMtnTigerWDE•73 months

Leach is the only one that would take it, because he isn't such a hot commodity any longer.

Gordy•73 months

Please no!!!

Remember that Gus grew up in NWA and got his start coaching Shiloh Christian Academy to two state titles. That's his home and he may want to return.

jdevers•73 months

Gus neither grew up in NWA or for his start coaching at Shiloh Christian. His first job coaching was DC at Hughes which is part of West Memphis now then was promoted to be their HC. Also, don't want him. His defense has carried him the last few years and we will never get that level of defensive talent even close to consistently. He would be a lot better than Morris, but wouldn't be nearly as successful as he is at AU...where they want him gone.

Quidam65•73 months

He graduated HS in Fort Smith.

ctiger69•73 months

Auburn will be happy to give him up.

TigerFan55555•73 months

no one is taking that job... roster is in shambles... min 3 years to get the players there...

AU_RX•73 months

Oh hell yes. Make it happen

EvrybodysAllAmerican•73 months

Mike Leach needs to be in the SEC. Hopefully Tennessee will get smart.

mtemplet•73 months

I hope leach lands in the East. We don’t need him in the west.

ffhouston•73 months

They'll swing and miss on their "dream" candidates and settle on Bobby P. Wonder if he wears the neck brace at his introductory presser for old times' sake.

Breauxsif•73 months

Leach isn’t going to that dumpster fire.

Settlement Alliance•73 months

Boom pig sooie

LSUsince74•73 months

These buyouts are fricking ridiculous which they now owe Morris to go winless in SEC play
