They just couldn’t let themselves believe that Arkansas would pay a whole bunch of money to fire two guys and then go out and hire a guy that had never been at least a coordinator.
Fortunately there are plenty of examples of position coaches being highly successful as head coaches in both the NFL and College levels.
The key to the Pittman hire was his ability to recruit, getting someone like Odom on the staff that can have frank game management discussions, and being able to evaluate the roster quickly.
He’s done all that and far exceeded my expectations in recruiting this “short cycle” class.
Homie is an animal on the recruiting trail.
Miss on Criswell? Ok.... go get Feleipe Franks AND Hornsby. Both were more highly rated than Criswell. That’s called being a frickin BOSS.
No OL committed? No problem, go jack the highest rated OLineman from both Missou AND Ole Piss.
Lol.
I forgot recruiting could be fun.

I smell what you're steppin in and agree with the general sentiment but let us not forget that Pittman wasn't even on the Hill's radar until he reached out. Even then, he wasn't top banana as far as the selection pool went.
I dig the full buy in on the Pittman though. If I remember correctly the fan base was like "'frick it, bring him on.''Cant get much worse, can it?'"
This is an example of why I love Razorback fans. The short memories and revisionist histories. It's also what frustrates other fan bases so much, it's like we're too stupid to be trolled and too hard headed to reason with.
