Bo just tweeted

Expect an announcement today that Arkansas has hired two search firms. One for A.D. search and the other for coach search. Firms are not necessarily used to hire, but to help with process and vet candidates. Arkansas is trying to get a lot done in short amount of time.


Chances he just looked at the Scoop article and thought "yeah, I'm totally capitalizing on this shite"?

Here’s what will happen, because we are Arkansas:

- Norvell goes to Arizona State, where he proceeds to win the Pac-12 and a National Championship.
- Venables goes to Tennessee, beats Bama in year 1, and wins the SEC in year 3.
- Malzahn stays at Auburn and wins a NC next year.
- State hires Chad Morris and proceeds to build on Mullen’s success, winning 10 games in year 2.
- We hire Lane Kiffin, who goes 10-14 over the next two years (including a 77-0 loss to Alabama) before being fired the spring of his third year here for banging half of Reid Hall.

Lane would be the best hire out of that group.

Maybe. I’m just telling you what the most Arkansas of outcomes would be.

Grandaddy Broyles is spinning in his grave. We are witnessing a full on Clusterfrick.

We're not. It's all for stability to avoid a bad Tennesee debacle. Candidates won't change, nor will the outcome.

Just for reference here, Arkansas fans. Korn/Ferry is the most expensive search firm out there. DHR has a reputation for swinging big, high profile names.

Korn is for AD, DHR for HC

DHR was used to hire Brohm at Purdue and Kiffen at FAU. Just giving examples.

Looks like Lane could still be on the board if Gundy to TN is true.

I believe we are going to be pretty happy with who we end up with.
