Excellent interview. Sure does seem like an uphill battle given his relationship with Fisher...

Richard,

You did a fantastic job in that interview.  You asked questions to which fans want hear answers.

As he warmed up to the interview, Charles' responses became more revealing.  The chance to play and create a legacy is important to him - and Arkansas provides that opportunity better than some teams that have been more successful the past few years.

He has a relationship with Fisher, but it won't be the same at A&M - we can all understand how it might seem odd since they spent so much time together at FSU.  That unexpected break from Florida State might have cooled Charles...  Fisher left FSU after bringing that program down.

I am not under the illusion that the Hogs are the team to beat.  However, Coach Morris is a high energy guy, and he's riding his horse - Clemson's success and his quick ascension from SMU to Arkansas.  The door is cracked open, hopefully we can blow the hinges off if Charles makes his visit.

Hope we can land this young man.

How many RBs can we afford to take? One? Two? None? I guess we take the best players available at this point with only 6-8 slots left.

I will be shocked if we do t get Boyd. That said, I wonder if we have room for Strong.

LOL...The assistants look dead.....love it!

Thanks for the kind words. I'm my own worst critic. I'll listen back and say I should've asked this and that.

He just looks like a sleaze IMO. I would rather play for 100 other coaches in College before Fisher.
