Arkansas Razorbacks Coach Chad Morris said there's been plenty of interest in the team's defensive coordinator vacancy based on the numerous messages on his cellphone.


quote:

"I want someone that has been well established," Morris said. "Well proven and has the excitement and energy level and the get up and go that I have."


quote:

Morris said his hire for strength and conditioning coach will be as important as the defensive coordinator.


quote:

"We're going to do some things a little bit different as far as the conditioning approach," said Morris, who places a premium on speed. "That's going to be a big emphasis for us moving forward.

So we don't have one in mind? This is concerning.

The fact its taking this long to find one is kind of concerning.

Sounds like Trump saying everyone wanted to be his VP and in his cabinet...

When we all know he is scrambling. This is equally transparent

Ever heard of coach speak? Who's to say he's not just describing the guy he has an agreement with.

Friendly reminder for the tards that are getting uppity again that bowls still haven't been played.

I think they already know who it is. Just keeping quiet on it. Bo had Bumper Pool on his show yesterday. Bo asked him straight up if Morris has already hired one. He said "well I have pretty good idea of who it is. The fans are gonna be excited."

It’s obvious that if it is Chavis, he’s waiting for the bowl game Dec 29th to conclude and Fisher to make it official he isn’t retaining him paying him his buyout money.

This is key because he has a fully guaranteed deal for $1.6 mil and he signed an extension in August.

He wants that money and A&M to pay him if they don’t want him which makes a ton of sense especially considering if he left for another SEC program (Arkansas) they would be on the hook for the 1.6 mil buyout.

Whatever Chavis' contact is here would be split year one.

Glad we're waiting for a non splash hire that everyone will laugh at us for. If it is him, who cares, but just announce it. This is the shite that will piss people off.

You can’t announce it before A&M parts ways unless you want to unnecessarily pay a buyout.

Why is that hard to understand?

And everyone knows Jimbo isn't retaining him. What's so hard to understand that?

No I just think it's stupid as frick if we're waiting when the world knows he won't be at A&M next season.

Don't try and church up a hire like chavis and hide that because of a "buyout" and even if this were the case it makes it look more stupid. And if there is one, why the frick would we pay extra for him? Sounds like a waste of money.

I'm done arguing though. If this is who you want then cool. I've said before none of us even have the choice, but don't like the fact that we have TONS of interest, but we can't say chavis due to a possible but out.
