Houston Nutt vs Wally Hall Saga

Houston we have contact. Nutt has backbone and nerve. I respect him for calling in and covering his back and his program. It appears that all lost in this exchange because critics will now have more ammunition. Here is the final score:

Houston Nutt 28, Wally Hall 3
(Wally was eerily quiet and couldn't respond to Nutt.)

Recruiting Class 2007

Of course, there will always be "positive spin" in college football recruiting. Arkansas is not an exception. The media is touting that this is the year for offensive and defensive linemen. We should have signed blue chip running backs and quarterbacks. In reality, QB is wide open for competition and the tailback position will have a vacancy the size of the Grand Canyon after next season when McFadden and Jones opt for the NFL after their junior season. We hope Jones will mature a year and increase his stock but if he is a solid first rounder then he must take the money and run.
