Word on Hogville and Scout is that he accepted the Co-Offensive Coordinator job...reported on a station in Tulsa called the blitz...The World as we know it is officially screwed...

It's spreading like wildfire...just spoke to a friend of mine with ties to TU and he said it is all but confirmed.

Frick you Nutt/Broyles, frick you very much.

Mustain is rumored to transfer as well. I think this will make up Lee Ziemba's mind for him, we could lose what recruits we do have. Not to mention, we could endure a NCAA investigation of hiring a coach to get players.

I hate you Dale.

I seen on other boards that this is true.

I don't like Nutt coaching style, and it sucks and next season they may not even win seven games.

If Mustain goes with Malzahn. I can see Nutt moving Robert Johnson back to QB.

No wonder Damian Williams left !!!

If we won 10 games with the schedule we had this year, next year we will win at least 8 or 9. There is no way we get any less than 8 and you can bank on that.

Let's see:
Nonconference= +4
Miss State, Ole Miss= +2
Nutt Luck= +2
Home SEC Games= +2
Loss of Malzahn, Williams, Wood, Mustain= -2

Seven to Eight wins sounds about right...then D-Mac goes pro...after that, more 4 win seasons...

How would losing Williams, Woods, and Mustain hurt us? What did any of them do to help us win games? Mustain didn't do much to win us games. He just handed it off and occasionally threw for about 80 yards. Damian would catch a ball every now and then while allowing 4 or 5 balls go between his hands. Wood hasn't done a whole lot with our QBs considering none of them have really made an impact on our team.

RD™

Tejada / Tuck are two recruits I would be very concerned about losing right now if Gus goes to TU. Both have Springdale/Shiloh ties and would be very devestating to recruiting if we lose them.

Footballer

If this turns out to be true, the only reason I'll have to watch the Hogs will be to see McFadden do well. This whole situation has been freaking ridiculous. DMC is the ONLY bright spot.

Your right. Williams only was Third team Freshman All American...I agree, he should have been first team!
Mustain was 8-0 as a starter! I agree he should have been...well he only started 8 games...
Wood (Not Woods) was supposedly one of the three who contributed to calling the plays and constructing the offense in the offseason...the same offense that moved from 66th a year ago, to 32nd...sure, our passing game wasn't great, but it was still better than last years! With a true sophomore and true freshman as your only options, let's see the top passing team in the nation somewhere else...

Gus was the one who recruited both of them as well...

Something else to consider

Markuson has been trying to elevate his name to go to MN, what if they told Gus, hey yall are going to be Co-Offensive Coordinators?

If I was Gus I would've given UA the finger as well.

I had a good night tonight, and then I came home and saw this. I'm pretty disgusted by the whole thing. The two arses on the hill had to go and eff everything up.

RD™

Makes me want to not be a fan of Razorback Football, willing to sacrifice that money to Tulsa and watch them play football. Like I said before, when I met Nutt a few months ago I wish I spit in his face, it would be the same exact thing he is doing to the fans and the program right now.

Footballer

I believe right now is the only time in my living memory that I can say I'm really considering to stop following the Hogs. The basketball loss to Ole Miss, and now this crap. I thought that finally football would be settled down until atleast this spring. I just hope the baseball team is as good as they're supposed to be. Gah, I think I need a drink.

RisonRacingFan

Maybe Gus decided he cant hack it in the SEC..his HUNH wasnt going to work..ever think of that..his receiver and qb sure as heck didnt work..Take Mustain and his Crazy Mom with you.

if this is true...its not nutts fault,its not franks fault...its all malzahn. he would be a dumba$$ to leave arkansas and go to tulsa as a co-offensive coordinator. i dont like nutt one bit, but he will have more wins with arkansas than tulsa. i mean come on, they hired a coach from rice that had a its best season in a while that is compared to an ok Houston nutt season(7-6). oh and did i mention that he hired six of his previous assistants from rice. and the only reason it was an ok season(or a great season in rice standards) was because of the good receiver they had.

if malzahn goes...he will be classified as an idiot. a complete idiot. we are talking his name is located in the dictionary defined as idiot.

this will ruin his career. give him one or two more years as OC at arkansas and will he land a HC job somewhere,wether its arkansas or not it would happen.

i hope the "savior" Gus Malzahn is not this stupid.

7:30Am CST:  The Fan sports radio 1190 AM: Bo Mattingly reports confirmation that Gus will leave Arkansas to become the Co-head coach and Co-offensive coordinator at Tulsa. He will reportedly recive the same pay as Arkansas, and will run the spread and be calling all the plays. A press conference is scheduled this morning on the hill.

My guess? Gus won't go alone.

Congrats to Gus! Frank Baby what in the world.

This is just the Last F-up . Frank B. must GO NOW! This Old Fart can Barely wipe His Rearend by himself, and he is head of the                                 Programs.LOL......LOL......LOL....This is a Circus. The Manager of a Sonic Drive Inn has more Brains than Frank B.

Here is ANOTHER fine example of Arkansas fans getting SCREWED!!! Just when we get something good going we get our heart ripped right out of us!!! I'm so tired of this!!!  IT'S HIGH TIME TRUE ARKANSAS FANS BAN TOGETHER AND MAKE A STAND!!!

With David Lee coming to be UAs OC wonder if Mitch will stick around given Lee's QB success record?  Wouldn't be surprised though to see both Mitch and Felix cross the border. 

HDN needs to pack Franks GMC and then they both need to get into it and drive off into the sunset together!

Within the next 3 to 4yrs Gus could possibly the head coach at Tulsa and all the good ones that Tulsa gets goes on to bigger and better jobs.

Only any WR more than likely. The RBs will still want to play for us because they more than likely aren't coming to run Malzahn's style.

I didn't mean to put an "s" on Wood the first time. If you look at post later on I spelled it correct. I am a huge Viking fan so I know all about him. He isn't that great. Also, I never said Williams was bad. He only caught 19 passes all year when he could have caught probably 30 or so. He dropped a ton of passes. Mustain was 8-0 as a starter. However, he got pulled after the first pass of the SC game when he threw an INT. That goes as a win, but he didn't do crap so he should really be 7-0. He didn't win us the Bama game, he nearly lost it. Against Vandy he had a lot of yards and I think 3 TDs, but if Vany's secondary wasn't garbage he would have had 3 more INTs and probably 2 for a TD. That doesn't matter though because it didn't happen. Mustain did not have good stats in very many games. He was just riding on the backs of McFadden and Felix.

They'll ban you for anything anti-Nutt (or Arkansas) over there.

Now all we can do is sit and watch as the Arkansas media tries to spin this story so it doesn't make Nutt look so bad. We'll be lucky to win 8 or 9 even with our easy schedule next year so long as HDN is calling the plays.

Not this stupid?  Gus, and Herring, are the only two there that know anything.  I must admit I'm NOT much of an Arkansas fan.  I've called them a tier 2 school and now I think that's generous.  The players identify with Gus and Herring MUCH more than they do with Nutt's and his mini-me Frank B.  I hope Gus leaves.  Hey, you do have Nutt's until 2012.  Now there is somthing to build on huh. 

My guess, over the next two years.  Saban will be 1-1 against Arkansas and have more wins than Nutt's.

At this point, I can't really blame anyone for leaving. It'll just make Nutt and Broyles look like even bigger idiots.

Are you kidding? Have you been over there lately? They will become your best friend for anything Anti-Nutt. They are all darksiders over there and pro-Mustain and Malzahn. I got banned on that site for stating Nutt's ppg under his offense in the SEC. I got unbanned a week later and stated that Mustain wasn't as good as people made him out to be and I got banned again. All of Hogville hates Nutt pretty much. Most the threads over there are fire Nutt and most the Avatars have a picture of Nutt or Stan Heath and saying fire them.

McKnz

Who can blame Gus? Seriously. For the dude who said it's Gus's fault for wanting to go to Tulsa over Arkansas...give me a break. It was evident throughout the season that Gus wasn't hired to be the OC. He was hired strictly for the purpose of bringing in the Springdale players. By the way, this is a huge NCAA infraction. I wouldn't be surprised to see an investigation now. Some of you Hog fans need to get over yourselves. Some of you, RD included, I truly feel for you. When you support a team it's hard when you constantly get screwed around.
