I thought Norvell was too shady for Arkansas or something like that. Something about coeds or gambling which is why you guys didnt hire him last time.
As much as I love Norvell at Memphis, I just dont think he has the chops to cut it at an SEC school yet. He's a great recruiter and has had some really good seasons here but hasnt really won the big games. No bowl wins, lost to UCF 4 times in 2 years (3 of those times Memphis had every chance in the world to win) and continues to make very questionable in game calls. Again, i think he is great for Memphis but i think this job might be his ceiling (just like Fuente, who from what i can tell is hated at VT).

I'm willing to give Morris time to get players to run his system before looking for the next coach.
