re: Keeping Pittman into this season will effect us negatively for the foreseeable future

First off..... don't put much stock in CarterthePower.... good dude but he's an LSU guy that cameos as a Razorback coverage dude.

Not the expert he claims to be.

Not wrong here though... we should have moved on from Sam last year.

Last year you have the choice to make a clean move to BP or hand pick the guy with not a ton of competition.

Now, you are going to have to do something we've proven we won't do in the past, out sell and/or out-bid the others.

Now it looks like Auburn may be making a play for Traylor....
one of my favorites for our job might be off the table. I think he would do better here. Traditionally we've done better with Texas talent.
Not sure how that would work at Auburn.

Regardless..... a year ago this would have been much easier.
