Can you get that level of talent to come to Fayetteville?


I'm not expecting top 10 classes. If he can get consistent top 25 classes he will win games. We will still have down years but they will be more 9 win seasons instead of 7 win seasons and give a chance at winning the west every 2-3 years.

look at BBs offensive strategy


wth does this mean?

A power running game and a QB that doesn't turn the ball over is a bad offensive strategy?

I don't think that defense can't win at Arkansas. It would just be easier on Arkansas to try to win on offense. You're going to need patience with Bielema, but I think he'll get it rolling. I just think Sumlin could get it rolling faster

Maybe it would be easier, but I don't think it's the best solution in the long run

Defense has more potential to win championships. It's a more consistent strategy that won't get you exposed

All the time we see offensive Air-raid/HUNH get exposed in big games

I'd much rather have a defensive guy that can recruit over an offensive guru that neglects defense

Absolutely. If you're going to win big in the SEC, you have to be a top defensive team.

The defense will eventually come to A&M. Just need a few years to get your guys in

A&M's offensive strategy will hurt the defense... even 5 stars will get tired if the offensive drives are short

Bielema has made a point to prolong drives so that the defense has time to rest

Houston Nutt won with a power run game and defense at Arkansas....Houston Nutt won with a power run game, no QBs, and defense at Arkansas....

Coach B is better than Nutt.....you people act as if Arkansas has always had an air raid offense.

shite, back in 1995 we won the West running the vier....the only times we have won the division or shared the title we had power running teams.

All depends on what Sumlin does with the talent he is landing and the talent he inherited.

Little early to even suggest Sumlin is going to fail on the level that Chizik did at player development.

That said, we'll never know how AU would have fared had Gus stayed on as OC. I like Gus. Think he'll have things back on track in a year or two to where y'all are competitive again.

Instead we make it a point to score points. Not sure which I'd prefer really.

Why? Because y'all wouldn't want to face the dilemma of letting his daughter rush?

Lets just hope we can develop that talent. texas is full of 4 and 5 stars and they arent shite because their staff cant develop the talent on their roster.
