you more or less have admitted you don't follow petrino that closely.
I've seen several games with him at all 3.
Difference between you and I, is that I can see things objectively.
You, sadly, can't. It's like asking a 5 year old who the greatest Dad in the world is. . .

Here is a better question:
Who was more valuable to the team?
When Knile Davis started getting the ball more, Arkansas went on a winning streak. Without Knile Davis, Arkansas could very well not be going to the Sugar Bowl. Without Ridley, LSU is probably still going to the Cotton.
Next?

i don't see how they wouldn't perform in any scheme with their size and athleticism
No adjustment would be necessary under Mullen.

Wrong.
LSU probably loses 2-3 more games without Ridley this year.

Really.
Not all Arky fans. Just those who say that Petrino has a history of changing his scheme/philosophy for personnel. Or that say that Petrino prefers mobile QB's over pocket QB's.

quote:well, given that the qb's he's recruited have been mobile (with offers to qbs being very rare), it stands to logic that he would like a more mobile qb; not necessarily a run first guy but a guy that has that option if needed. the best you've offered is speculation that he just took the only guys he could get with no convincing proof to back it up. once you find something to prove that, let me know. i'll wait.

The player who helps take his team to the Sugar Bowl is more valuable than the player who helps take his team to the Cotton Bowl, especially considering the former had more rush yards on fewer attempts, more receiving yards, and scored the same amount of TD's.
It's not even close. The voters just wanted to throw yall a bone.

well, given that the qb's he's recruited have been mobile
Which Pocket Passers has he passed on?

Or Brohm?
When has he had success with a mobile QB?

quote:You are Arkansas. You will be a force in recruiting before long, just not right now.
no convincing proof to back it up
The problem is the lack of in-state talent, and the long history of being an also-ran. Petrino is changing that, but you are still not a school that hand picks it's talent.
You will be one day, just not today.
Right now you make the best of what you get.

Seems ideal for Mullen.

When you play Arkansas, your focus is stopping the pass.
When you play LSU, your defensive focus is stopping Ridley.

quote:ok? of the qb's currently on our roster that he signed, one is from ark., one is from louisiana, and one is from the houston area. if he were limited to signing within arkansas and all we had was mobile qb's, your argument would be valid. unfortunately, you offer nothing other than speculative arguments and "dude...you're arkansas" as if that proves anything.

Nahh, I don't necessarily agree with that. Ridley maybe won us a game or two. But I think Ford has the ability to do the same thing.

Arkansas tried Wingo and Green and were unsuccessful.

K. Davis should not be punished simply because Ridely's offensive coordinator could not put together a balanced offense. Again, if we use your logic, we should give it to Vandy's tailback because he was dealt even worse cards than Ridley.
The proper logic is: Knile Davis got better stats DESPITE not being fully utilized until game 4 or 5, and despite not being in a run-focused offense.

These Rkansas people are actually the funniest people on the rant. I think they actually believe, since they are finally going to 1 Sugar Bowl, they are an elite team. Yes, they have had LSU's number recently but seriously? 1 Sugar Bowl, no SEC championship, certainly no BCS championships but they are at the same level as an LSU, Bama or Florida? Ryan Mallet is very good. No team is scared of Ark or Petrino. Go get some hardware over the next 10 years then maybe you can come talk with the big boys....

I want this to happen just so I can laugh at my dear, dear nephew, who is an Arkie grad and who has been unbearable this year. Their first Sugar Bowl like EVER, and he acts like Petrino just won back to back to back crystals. I would probably literally laugh my arse rith off if Petrino ended up going to UF...especially after their first fricken' BCS bowl.
