Timeline and Offer

Sexton playing Lane 2.0 on Hogs and u$.

Yep. What I said above. Sexton doesn’t give 2 craps about either school and will just play one side against the other till someone breaks. Only thing that will sway things our way is Briles interest level in leaving AR. If he sees a sinking ship or is unhappy, we should probably get him.

Just connecting dots, but we?ve had 2 QB?s hit the portal in the last 24 hours. They know who the OC is.

Or it is that the guy who recruited them, Hollingshead, is not being retained.

More likely they know who our qb is for the next 2 years

[Bdawg]

I never bought into Bryles even being a remote possibility. Ark can surely match and exceed our best offer, plus there is talk he is the "coach in waiting" there.

I think his interest was more his agent playing up us to get him a raise in his current job.

I would be pissed if I was Pittman and AR already had a “coach in waiting”. He hasn’t been there that long and I don’t think he is looking into the sunset like Leach probably was. Not sure if I buy the “coach in waiting” title. How long would he have to wait? Is Pittman on the hot seat?

At least for one more they do.

If any players knew who the hire would be, it would be out within the hour

Locke has officially announced for the portal. Who else has?

[msstate7]

Arnett has to get a staff in place in a hurry. We aren't a school that recruits/transfers will just wait around on

Roberson just entered portal.

What you just said. Nothing to do with the OC hire.

[yjnkdawg]

Roberson just entered portal.

Thanks, I just saw that after I had already posted.

[yjnkdawg]

I don?t see how 1 hire on the offensive side of the ball totally turns Briles away. Is there more on the offensive side that are staying and Briles doesn?t have much input?

I don't either but all I am saying is there seems to be two totally different opinions from some supposedly in the know on the situation.

Which shows no one really knows whats happened/happening.

Sexton playing Lane 2.0 on Hogs and u$.

Yes. And just like that deal, they already know the outcome. Just working the price.

[Turfdawg67]

Also, rumored is KJ's NIL for 2023 is $800k.

Jarrett Stidham's salary as starting QB for the Raiders is $787K. Leaving college might be salary reduction for some guys. Lol

[yjnkdawg]

Yes. And just like that deal, they already know the outcome. Just working the price.

The positive thing for KB taking our offer is that he can run the offense however he wants too and at ARK he is somewhat limited on doing that. Also it doesn't seem like Pittman is their most favorite person, as for as some of the players and coaches think. So possibly and hopefully KB and Sexton not trying to use us to get a raise to stay at ARK, may not be on the table

[PawDawg]

Coming to the Dogs or staying at Arkansas?

LOL Isn't that the norm CC.

Sam Pittman's a good coach and players/coaches should respect that.
