Thanks, DC.
From looking at the PDF, it's evident to me that Haynes sees our team a little differently than Willy did.
Kelly-Thomas at OLB is over. Back to DE.
Arkadie moved to DT? That one is perplexing. He must have put on a ton of weight since the fall.
Matt Marshall penciled in as a starter is surprising. He's never really done anything. Would love it if he turned it on for his senior year - great speed at LB.
Daunte Carr at OLB is disappointing. Must not have the speed for safety.
Highsmith is evidently going to line up at MLB.
Tyler Gilbert moved back to OLB, which I'm happy about.
Rassner back to safety scares me. I don't know if he has the speed...makes me worry about the guys they've been signing at safety.
Kelvin Fisher back to CB is great news. We don't need him at RB.
Weir moving to TE is not unexpected, but I'm still disappointed. Wanted to see him on defense.

Allen already the #2 QB as a freshman?
SEC Is fricked.

I'm hoping so because he definitely doesn't have the size to play DT as he is listed.
Also Rasner and Carr seem backwards. I thought Rasner was much better at LB than Safety and always thought carr would end up being a very good safety by the time he was done.

Oh Jerry Mitchell back to Safety. Just now noticed that change.

Arkadie arrived at campus gaining 45 lbs last year, he was listed at 235 during recruiting, showed up to camp at 275, cut and ready to play. His weight listed is way the f off

Marshall is just warming up Otha Peters' spot while he finishes HS

I'm very surprised to see Ryan Farr listed at WR instead of safety and Price Holmes at safety instead of WR. Maybe they are just cross-training them and they'll move back to their original positions in the Fall. They both looked good as backups last Fall camp at their original positions.
Matt Marshall plays with a high motor and chip on his shoulder; would love it if he makes the starting lineup on defense.
Ross Rasner is one of my favorite players on the team. If the coaches think he can play safety and that's his best chance to see the field, then so be it. He's smart and stronger than he looks.

Are you going to make it to the few open practices again this year? I think there is only 6 of them this time.

Also, it will be interesting to see if Horton can hold on to the starting WR spot. I think Wade will push him and has a good shot at taking that spot before next season. They both have good hands, but I think Wade is more explosive and more of a threat to stretch the field. Horton of course has the advantage in experience and may be seen as more reliable by the coaches.

Is there a schedule out? It depends on what day and time the practices are. I will for sure go to any of the practices I can.
edit: Found the days but not the times:

Open practice dates for Arkansas this year are March 14, 15 and 30, and April 6 and 13

Sweet, looking forward to your updates if you get the chance.

Can't believe Spring practice is already here, kind of snuck up on me. I'm in class until 2:30 tomorrow, so if practice is after that then I can make it, if before then not.

I think Horton is going to be a stud. He's got great size, strength, and hands. I think he's going to be huge for us as a possession receiver, but he's shown he can stretch the field.
Regardless, Horton and Wade will ALL see plenty of snaps. As many 4 and 5 wide sets as we run, they'll all get plenty of balls thrown their way.

I'm wondering if we're going to see as many 5 WR sets this season as we did last. With Knile back and Small established as an awesome FB, and Gragg as one of our best receivers on the team, I think we see a little more run game and traditional pro-style formations with just 2 or 3 WR's. Could be wrong though. I do love seeing Tyler operate with 5 WR's while opposing LB's shite their pants.
Posted on 3/13/12 at 7:37 pm to Jon Ham
I'm pretty sure we will. Least it looks that way from my E-Coaching internet chair.
Posted on 3/13/12 at 7:39 pm to 870Hog
You think we will see as many 5 WR's sets as last season or that we will see less of them?

I can guarantee you we have the fastest caucasian WR in the SEC...and it ain't even close
Would that be Hunter Jarvis or Kane Whitehurst? Or someone else who I can't think of at the moment?
edit: I see your edit now.
