There have been guys who have made the jump but why is there any reason to believe Malik would be a better WR than some random guy off a track team?

Burks speed was what made you pay for all the other things he could do to you. He was an amazing receiver from a catch standpoint. He had maybe what just a couple drops in his career? He could jump and was all ready tall for being that fast and he came back to the QB well. Even watching his breakdowns for the drafts you see where he's got development at route running to do still though. Although he's got some highlights where his route running created all the seperation for him.

Correct and it didn’t for Pat White or Braxton Miller, but that’s because they didn’t decide to change until to late. At least Braxton did it his final year in college.

He can't be any worse than what we have now.

How much longer would Matt Jones had lasted if he was a receiver in college and didn’t chase gator tails.

Also I’m not Saying do this, I mean Malik has to do what is best for him.

But I think he is too skilled of a runner and too quick to not be on the field as much as possible.

He is too good to be sitting on the bench at another school and Arkansas needs a WR with elite speed. A lot of players are stubborn and don't want to make a position change.

If Matt Jones had the work ethic of Burks then he would be the best WR in Arkansas history. But he never had a chance under Nutt and without a good QB, the move would have never happened.

Apparently the Drew Sanders visit went very, very well. Perhaps better than many thought. Seems he will announce his on Sunday after all the visits.

I still wish Arkansas were last on his visit list, and not first.

If Drew Sanders comes to Arkansas I’ll kiss Pio’s bare arse in front of Old Main the day he gets out of prison.
