Our biggest roster issue in my opinion...

The uncommon recruit under Dumplin' is just the opposite. He has always stressed recruiting guys who stay out of trouble and respect their momma.

We have no trouble makers. No players who are on the fringe of going psycho. No players who snap because of their bi-polar issues. Basically, we haven't recruited any players who have any inner "dog" in them or are ticking time bombs.

When is the last time you can remember a mouthy, arrogant, instigating prick on our team? Petrino had some. Hell, Ryan was a mouthy arse at QB for us.

Bert has stuck to recruiting choir boys. Remember Marquel Wade? He was bat shite crazy and he went overboard, but this roster needs a mixture of guys that live on the edge. Currently, this roster doesn't have it. This roster is full of nice guys who finish last.

What about the dude that punched our RB in the face?

I think there are plenty of problems on this team.

We just have a bunch of soft, yankee fat boys.

No, its a pretty good take.

Skipper was close and played like a person that could be admitted to a halfway house sometimes. Morgan talked some shite and played with a chip on his shoulder.

Everyone else has been pretty ho hum don't give a shite.

So we need more players who draw penalties and personal fouls. Brilliant.

Nobody said that.

Its pretty evident as we have a team full of choir boys right now, led by a former walk on choir boy himself.

Biggest roster problem is we lost our offensive identity when Pittman walked out the door.

eh we do they just never see the field because of their issues. Idk how he is intensity wise, but I always thought Santos Ramirez was one of those players that doesn't give a frick and does what he wants.

No joke. Even the fact that from the jump it's been "our O-line will be elite, our o-line will be elite" is like... whoa, is that even possible here?

I don't have enough knowledge to know how much of Pittman's success was circumstance (he's doing a good job at Georgia apparently) but that's a big pill to swallow, or bite to take, or something.

You knew when our claim to fame was we have the fattest o-line in football that soooomething was "off".

I get what you're saying. We also don't have any leaders on this team. None.

Meh, I understand where you're coming from.

Big issue is the OL. Ragnow isn't a choir boy, neither is Froholdt.

Wallace, Merrick and Jackson were a victim of bad evaluation, Which falls at the feet of fat arse.

I don't give a shite what type of offense you run, your OL makes you or breaks you.

He's in over his head in this league at all levels.
He's made dumbass decision after decision, hired reject coaches.

In fact, fat asses performance here or lack thereof doesn't bode well for another P5 job anytime soon.

He's a fat wind bag that's full of shite!
The Monday Presser



Hopefully he'll do what Gary Anderson did and walk away without the $$$$$

This is where people quit taking anything that you say seriously.

You are so biased against Bert that you spew shite that just isn't true.

How exactly is Wallace and Merrick's bad evaluation, which led to offers from nearly every major program in the nation, Bert's fault.

Now their lack of progression, maybe, but both were absolute stud recruits.

The difference is that Arkansas only gets a few stud recruits and when they don't work out, it really hurts.

Bama misses on four and five star guys all of the time, but you don't notice unless it's a QB, because they just throw another four or five star guy in there.

Lol, that's the best you can come up with.

Did you happen to post in the age thread?

People would probably take you more seriously if you didn't scream "fat arse" in every post.

But carry on... I hope that you are seeking help.

We didn't last year, either.

We haven't had a "true" leader on this team since Flowers.
