6'1 225 isn't that bad for an OLB. He might grow to an MLB but I think he has potential to compete for the OLB if the rumors from LSU fans about peters being slow are true.

The 2 new defensive coaches are an obvious upgrade but Bobby Allen is now the weakest link on this staff.
Refresh my memory, but hadn't Bobby Allen been coaching other positions in addition to DB's or had he even been coaching DB's at all? Regardless, IIRC, some position coaching changes were made on defense that should help the secondary.
As far as 'weakest link', you are always going to have one.

Then once again you've proven that you don't know dick about Arkansas football. Allen has been here for 15 years, why would we fire him now when both of his sons are 5 star quarterbacks that are gonna play for Arkansas in the next few years.
We can't recruit 5* QB's?
Defense wins championships and our last defense was in 1989.
Remember the kid is already in a Arkansas uniform. If he transfers find another one.

Our secondary sucked, so let's fire the guy who coached the DL the past few years!!![]()
To be fair the DL got a lot better when he started working in the secondary.

I don't know you man and I understand wanting a top 15 class year in and out, but you are kind of acting like a Rantard right now, give the class a couple of years they could get re-evaluated as a top 5 one. Grab a beer and enjoy the day!

It scares me that I know more about the staff.

Correct.

Yes, our defensive backs are not good and haven't been.
Bobby Allen hasn't even been coaching the DB's. He just got moved there when we hired Haynes.

I am ready to see what the D looks like next year....
I don't want to give up more than 10 points until we play Bama.

I don't think he knew that Bobby Allen had been coaching the DL. I've never seen someone that is so uninformed continue to look like such a dumbass over 30+ pages. Some people are masochists I guess.

Lets start with a top 15 class once.
I'm happy with the defensive pick up's but shocked at our lack of offensive whiffs on the big studs.

You just have to know who you are dealing with.

Oh, my goodness the wealth isn't what we are talking about here.
"Rich" is subjective anyway, it's just a made up word.

Me too. I'm actually expecting us to be pretty salty next year on D. which will make our team a lot better. As long as we can replace the Bequette reasonably well then I think next year we have something special.

Yeah, when Haynes started calling stunts instead of relying on gap control. I thought that was pretty much accepted by now and a major reason people were excited about Haynes' performance in the cotton bowl...
Regardless, do you think that Peoples made THAT big of a difference in 1 month? Or do you think that Allen did a good enough job over the last 3-4 years that the kids just finally had a chance to show what they could do when they were let loose? Which is more likely?

Correct, don't talk down to people on a serious level because they might be someone. Sarcastic is a whole different ball game.

Aren't recruiting rankings subjective too?

That's fine, but right now in this moment of the program, give me a solid D recruiting class and I'll take a whiff on O. BP will always have us great on offense and I think we are trending towards having a solid D next year. Is it August now????
