What do you expect year one and where do you see your program in four years?

4-8, this year. 3 consecutive national championships after that. We then build a statue of Chert dressed up as one of the A&M milkman cheerleaders.

Certainly better than 4-8 and a more exciting offense with Chad Morris, dudes offensive approach is thrilling and amazing

Bowl Game.
Have a team that doesn’t roll over in losses
No embarrassing beat downs, especially at home

I expect around 6-6 this year just because of the schedule. Could get to 7 or 8 depending on if he can pull an upset in the regular season and then win a bowl game.

The roster is more fit to his offense than the roster was fit for Petrino in 2008.

We have about 20 WR on roster. A talented load of TE's. A talented 3-4 RB's. The question is who comes out on top at the QB spot(Hyatt, Kelley, Noland, Storey) and how does the OL hold up.

Defense should be pretty solid. The 3-4 was a terrible idea last season, but Arkansas returns a pretty talented LB duo, solid DL and talent in the secondary.

It will be interesting to say the least.

Overall, should go 4-0 OOC and have winnable SEC games against Ole Miss, Vanderbilt, Missouri toss ups against aTm, LSU and will most likely lose Auburn, Alabama, and State(if States coach is alright).

I say 5-7 this year with a possibility at 6. Still have to find a quarterback and too many questions on defense and offensive lines.

this exactly. I think we could do better this year than next actually because we are losing so much on defense after this season. Our defense I think has a chance to actually be really good

Unless your 3 deep at ever position Chavis’ D will never hold up to the speed/tempo Morris runs. Terrible hire by Morris

Wanna know how I know that a jelly yankee, probably a jelly B1G fan, drew that ridiculously cliche graphic?

That's the thing about jelly yankees and midwesterners ... they always expose themselves and all their insecurities when they think they're actually busting our balls.

I don't get it. Seems like they would look in the mirror once in awhile.

Wonder why a gump would use that graphic to try to troll the rest of us? I can't remember the last time Bama beat my fighting little birds ... had to be at least a decade ago.

"You guys" ... lulz.

Every time I see that yankee crap posted I automatically hear it as ...

5 or 6 wins with some stumbles along the way. Going forward we have good talent across the board... except for the O-Line. Any injuries to the line, and we've already had one, and things begin to look bleak.

Call it... 7-8 wins if our line stays healthy and plays well. 5-6 wins if you have the normal attrition you'd expect in a long season. 4 wins if the injury bug jumps on us.

The good teams will likely whip us. The mediocre teams we can hang with. The bad teams we should thrash.

We had the two worst defenses in our history under Bielema the last two years when he was the king of Time of Possession lol.

My thing is, if we’re going to give up a lot anyways we might as well be aggressive and try to force some turnovers while we’re at it. We just sat back and were conservative with Bielema and SEC teams aren’t going to just make mistakes every drive.

I'll go on record.

We win 6-8 this year.

Next year, probably about the same.
Years 3 and 4 we will be in the SEC West top 3.\
From then on, favorable schedule years (like this year for instance- LSU and Bama at Fayetteville) we may actually get us an SEC Title.

Arkansas' WR corps will be scary af every year.

Some year we will have it all come together. May get that win in Tusky someday (within 6 years)and will have the other tough games at home that year. And we all know, winning the SEC means= playoff team.

I like what we have on defense.

I like our potential on offense. It all depends on QB and OL play.

Plenty of pieces to work with.

I have no clue how quickly our team will pick up Chad's scheme, but there are things to be optimistic about.
