Thanks to FSU there may actually be an even worse hire this year but that doesn't make it a good one either.

I taught my kid from an early age "when you reach bottom, stop digging". Quit making bad things worse. That's roughly the logic that I think may apply here as well.




I value your opinion on college football.
So I am curious why you say that?
From my perspective to win at Arky you have to

1) Recruit Texas well. The state doesnt produce enough talent on its own to field an SEC competitor based largely on in states.
2) Be offensive minded first. You arent going to beat Bama and LSU at their own game. They are too close and too strong of brands. Thats one reason I thought BB was destined to fail. He wante pro style players and he had to beat Bama and LSU consistently for recruits or beat them with their castoffs and 2nd choices. Neither seems a likely win scenario. Petrino had success as an offensive first and sold something different
3) Appease the big money boosters.


From my perspective Morris seems like an ideal fit to do all 3.
