He’ll be a great DC for Kiffin.

Only reason for Fuente to want Ark is to reset the clock. It seems like Arkansas could be doomed for years

How Dan Wolken gets info is beyond me. 90% of his day is spent tweeting vague shite and being the woke journalist in the room... but he never seems to be in the room. It’s like USA Today pays him to be on location in Atlanta, but otherwise he just sits at home and tweets hot takes from a distance.

Fuente was in line to get fired had the ACC not been historically bad this season.

I wouldn't like that hire for Arkansas if I was them

They'd be better off with Kiffin.

Fuente would be a terrible hire, he almost had a mutiny on that team last year.
If it's been a struggle in the ACC for him, the SEC will eat him alive.

I'm not convinced Kiffin is who I would want leading my program but that's probably the best hire to make some noise for the Hogs. They need a recruiter more than anything and Kiffin would at least be competitive in that realm and would give Hogs their best offense since Petrino.

Kiffin really needs to succeed at his next P5 coaching stop.

Arkansas is doomed having to compete against LSU, Bama, and Auburn every year.

He needs to go elsewhere.

Why anyone would want to go to Arkansas is beyond me. There’s nothing appealing about that job. It’s a massive battle just to get decent players

My sources close to the situation are telling me this is imminent.

If they don’t purse Mike Leach that would be a mistake.

I think Arkansas has to get a good x’s and o’s coach.

My sources say Sylvester Croom is gaining a lot of momentum among prominent boosters

Would be a bad hire, IMO.

He’s been awful at VT.

Maybe getting back to the area would be better for him but yikes.

It’s funny because the state of Arkansas is generally such a nice place, but your fanbase has the same brand of arrogant redneck retardation that Alabama’s fanbase exudes

I think they both would be good hires . Both are risky hires . I think Kiffin would be better right now and cheaper.
