This picture is from my first day in Fayetteville, 7 years ago. A California kid who had never been to, or even heard of any part of the south. Why? Because of that man behind me. A kid who went from getting kicked out of a D1 school, sent to a junior college in the middle of Iowa, to playing in the SEC. Why? Because of that man behind me. A kid who would go on to be a 1st team All Leaguer, 2nd team All American, and recipient of the award for the best offensive lineman in the SEC. Why? Because of that man behind me. A kid that would eventually be drafted and go on to live out his childhood dream of playing in the NFL. Why? Because of that man behind me. Coach Pittman is the reason I got to experience the magic that runs through this state and I couldn’t even begin to thank him enough for it. Just under 2 years ago I posted and said hiring coach was the best decision this program has made in a long time and that I’d stand on that statement. Regardless of what happens the rest of this season, this was a turning point and a statement game for this team. A culture shifting win that will be stamped in Razorback football timelines forever. Remember that. Trust me, I have A LOT more to say because I know what this man does to a locker room but I think I’ll save that for our next big win. There’s something very very special brewing in Fayetteville and boy I can’t wait to watch. Man Mountain Dean. Mr. Freaky Deaky. I Love ya coach and WOO DAMN PIG!!!
