I think it was going to be Gus, until he beat Bama and Georgia. Then he got paid, and some security from Auburn.
I think it's pretty much been Norvell's to lose since then, or maybe Morris', since there was so little chatter about him. I think his interest in the Arkansas job got real when Jimbo was hired.
I think there may have been interest from Kiffin also, until Jimbo got hired.
At this point, I think the money is going to talk. If Morris is Jerry's guy it will probably be him. If some other big money is behind Norvell, it will be Norvell.
I caught quite a bit of shite for saying it a few weeks ago, but the sheer numbers of players in this circus has made things more difficult. I think we may find out the Jimbo to aTm/Florida State job opening up event, had some repercussions for us.

Seems like the Ark sports "media" has gone full blown Morris too.

Well when the A&M job closed up, and Morris won't get a sniff at that for several years with the contract they laid on Jimbo, suddenly Arkansas became priority one for him. For Kiffin he was probably very interested in the job but now FSU is hanging in the breeze and he probably wants to get a firm no from them before he looks at anyone else.
I'd say its a two horse race between Morris and Norvell and it comes down to who has the better backers at this point.
