And judging from the reactions of the coaches we've landed from Wisconsin their facilities must not be that great at all.

Their weight room looks like it belongs to a high school

Not even exaggerating. It's terrible

He's in a much better recruiting situation here than at wisky. Still not the best situation but with all our facilities, recent winning tradition, biggest name hire of the offseason, and SEC ties he should be capable of getting better recruits than at Wisconsin.

That really makes you appreciate our setup. Our weight room is just ridiculous. I hope whoever designed it got a huge raise because I almost every single recruit raves about it after visiting.

Their weightroom is 7,800 sq ft ( LINK). Ours is 19,000 sq ft. They're spending $87 million on facilities improvements, but their weightroom will still be smaller than ours when they're finished.

Their stadium is pretty big but aesthetically it looks like War Memorial.

I don't think there's any comparison right now, or in the foreseeable future. Our facilities are way better, and when the football ops building is done, the gap will just get wider.

I think you might have 1 too many LB and RB, which I think we'll end up bringing on more OL.


John Ross. Spill what you know. Looks like he's got one official left and we're the only non Pac 12 school he's interested in. What brings about his interest? Joel Thomas?

This would probably be the single greatest recruiting job ever at Arkansas. Fapworthy for sure.

Otis and Turberville said this one isn't happening. They didn't elaborate why but were pretty adamant about it.

Sounds like this guy is going to be setting up an OV after the dead period ends.

247 is doing a live update today from the O-D Bowl practice.

Here's a quick blurb that they just posted on Deondre Skinner.

quote:

Arkansas commit Deondre Skinner looks more and more like a TE everytime I see him. Don't think he will have a problem getting to 250 lbs and keeping some good speed and quickness


Kaleb Blanchard and Tyler Cogswell are playing in this game as well. Awkward.

Looks as if things are in good shape for Antonio Longino. LB's getting some badass help.

Bielema said he would do his in-home visit with Harding about a week or so after.He was very encouraged that Bielema said he would need him to play next year and they're not looking to redshirt him. He still plans to make official visits to Arkansas, Auburn and Arizona State.


Interdasting.

Harding would not redshirt, really figured he would.
