I personally think Morris is going to end up like Sumlin. Good recruiter, kills it in smaller schools, puts a decent team on the field, but in the end can't get over the hump. JM and the O-line is what made Sumlin look great in his first year in my opinion.

I'm really interested to see how Morris does. He didn't light the world on fire at SMU, but it's hard to imagine a coach walking into a worse situation. After June Jones' move to Arizona State fell apart in early 2013 (he was fired in late 2014), he basically stopped recruiting (rumor is he'd only scout players who proactively sent him film) and if the stats are any indication, he stopped coaching too. In other words, it was as if Morris took over a team coming off of 2 years of heavy probation and scholarship reductions. Given that, a bowl in year 3 is respectable.
Arkansas isn't a premier program, but they're also far from an SMU-level also-ran. A good coach can recruit and win there. I want to see what he can do
