Trumain Carroll S&C coach

Carroll most recently worked with Morris at SMU, where he was the Mustangs’ strength and conditioning coach for the last three seasons (2015-17).

Joe Craddock OC QB's Coach

Joe is one of the bright, young minds in all of college football,” Morris said. “He worked underneath us at Clemson and was very instrumental in our success there. I took him with me to SMU and saw him grow both as a person and as a coordinator during the last three years. He has a great mind and feel for the game, and I’m excited to have him on our staff and what we bring to the table in our high-powered offense.”

Jeff Traylor

– Associate Head Coach/Running Backs
A high school coaching legend in Texas who comes to Fayetteville after recent stints at SMU (2017) as associate head coach/running backs and Texas (2015-16) as an assistant coach.

Dustin Fry

– Offensive Line/Run-Game Coordinator
A former NFL center who played at Clemson and coached the offensive line at SMU the past three seasons.

Barry Lunney Jr. – Tight Ends

Played quarterback for the Razorbacks from 1992-95 and has served as tight ends coach at Arkansas since 2013.

Justin Stepp

– Wide Receivers
Mentored projected first-round 2018 NFL Draft pick Courtland Sutton as wide receivers coach at SMU from 2015-17 and was selected last December to participate in the 2018 AFCA 35 Under 35 Coaches Leadership Institute.

Steve Caldwell, Defensive Line DE's
Ron Cooper, Secondary Safties
John Scott Jr., Defensive Line DT's ST
Mark Smith, Secondary Corners

You did promise to blitz, right? Any promises regarding 15 yard cushions on 3rd and 4?

as his agent, (Drew, I do still get 25% right?) NO! not for such a paltry sum. Up the pay to 1.75 million and we will workout the details in a contract addendum.

Just remember, no pressing receivers at the line of scrimmage Drewbie. There is an unwritten Arkansas defense rule about it. Violate this and the Universe will explode.

What the hell are they doing? I thought there was gonna be a presser to announce them all at once?

Has Morris been in front of a microphone all day long and he just hasn't gotten to it all yet?

For 1.75 million, we want disguised blitzes at random times, press coverage on 3rd and up to 5 yards for the first, and at least one all-SEC player at corner, linebacker, and defensive end within 2 years.

If your client is capable of this, we may have a deal.

Mostly linebacker blitzes but you might see a few borderline erotic exotic corner blitzes out of a few of my packages.

Any player caught giving a cushion of any kind to an opposing player will be reprimanded. Severity depending on the fabric of said cushion. 3rd and 4 is what would theoretically happen if by some act of god the opposing team was somehow able to gain 6 yards on my defense within the first two plays of their drive.

Razorback Reverend, your client appears to be entering into direct negotiations, and the words he is using are giving me a boner. I consider this quite unseemly, and would ask you to inform your client that the offer now stands at 2 million per year.
