Curious to know if Coach Morris' son Chandler will continue to play at Highland Park or transfer to an Arkansas school?

Diamondbackhog

It has been reported that he will stay at HP. I wish he would come to AR, but don't blame him for staying.

He has a State Championship to win. Should be the starting QB this year. Be interesting to watch how he does.

All the reporting is that he is staying at HP which makes sense for the Morris's, Chandler, and anyone who has moved during their late high school career.

It doesn't make sense to Arkansas fans because they will think that Morris isn't fully invested in Arkansas.

Personally I think he needs to make the decision on what's best for his family. For his son to have to come in to a new program and learn everything about it with the enormous pressure of being the Head Hog's son and then compete against the QB there which means he can't win the competition because even if he does it's because he's the Morris's kid. It's a recipe for disappointment all around.

Plus... think of the recruiting side... CBB burned bridges with so many HS coaches in Texas that the hiring of Morris has rebuilt to the Hill. But to have his son playing weekly in Texas HS football at a great program only serves to strengthen those bonds. His son is an active recruiter so far for us and I can't imagine that changing on Friday nights in the fall.

If Arkansas had 9A Level football it would not be to the level of Texas 5A.  Texas 5A and 6A football is like playing college football.

Why?  If he's a senior and the starter on a team with a chance to win state championship, you stay.

From someone who isn't totally drooling over Morris, more than happy to say this:

Chandler was the best hog caller of any new person to the U of A that I have ever seen. This sounds sort of like a joke but I am serious, it was outstanding. And he was evidently responsible for the above average performance of the whole family. Morris was later quoted as saying Chandler got the whole family together and made them practice over and over the night before because "if we're gonna do this, we're gonna do it dang right."

Love it

Imagine your kid is the QB of a team he loves. Are you gonna tell him he's got to leave for a new team and school? I certainly wouldn't. Not at that age.

Just because YOU don't care doesn't mean nobody else does. Its the offseason and its the head football coach's son and could impact arkansas highschool football.

Hogs have hit a wall at the wrong time of the season.  I will go on record now and say they may not even get out of their regional.  The hitting has been carrying them with a few good pitching outings but they just don't have the reliable pitching they need to get back to the CWS.

I'm with you on this. 

From my perspective, this is folks trying to stir up trouble when, in reality this is a family decision. More to the point this is the Morris' decision to make and we don't get a say so in the matter - as it should be.

How far should we take being involved in a family's ability to decide what happens w their child. For example, the ADs son is going to the U of Colorado.  Should the fans decide that the ADs son has to come to Arkansas as a walk-on instead of taking the schollie offer from the Buffaloes?   If not, why not?  If the fans can compel the HC to make his son move and play football in Ark, why can't we make the ADs son be a walk-on at Arkansas.

Frankly, we just need to butt out of this conversation and let the families make the decisions that they deem is best for them.  Each of us have enough problems of our own to be butting in on someone else's problems.

Not that I have a strong opinion about this or anything.

going to college is different than going to HS.

Obviously, I disagree - the principle is still the same...i.e. somebody other than the family makes the decision on what is best for their family.   

You and I should not be involved in this discussion.

Odd that so many want Arkansas to move to a lesser conference but want Morris to complete against the best of the best.

Makes sense to me.

If the situation was opposite of this, say a coach who was at Arkansas left to be a coach in Texas, I would assume that the kid would stay in Arkansas and play for a chance to win a state title. I know what it is to move at a critical juncture. Chemistry is very important on a team.

On a side note, I believe one thing wrong with football in Little Rock is because sometimes a kid doesn't know from year to year where the school bus will take him.

It's a 3 mile drive from HP Football complex to Love Field and a 40 min Gulfstream ride to Drake. He'll probably be in Fayetteville each Friday night within three hours of the final whistle in HP.

When you are about to take over a 5A texas program that has State Title aspirations you do not move to Fayetteville, AR.  You finish out your HS career at your current school and hopefully he then comes to the Hill with a scholly to be our QB.

Thanks for the input. I'm sure Chad Morris leads his family and decides what's best for them by taking the advice of anonymous message board posters.

TexHog188

Chandler will be the starting QB for the Highland Park Scots with a chance to 3-Peat in Texas 5A Football. No way he gives up on that to transfer to Fayetteville. Leave the kid alone, he's living the dream everyone of us wish we could. Go Hogs!

I don't care either.

I care. I think it says a lot for the Morris family that they are willing to make this decision while probably knowing they will catch some flack from unreasonable people. I wasn't sold on Coach Morris in the beginning. The more I learn, the better I like him.

It will be fun keeping up with HP this year. I am hoping for that 3 peat!

I wouldn't say we are "involved" I would say we are discussing.  And I think it's a fair point of discussion since we (generically the ticket buying Razorback fans) are paying his salary.  If he reels off 3 surprisingly good seasons and bolts for another job, will it be fair to say "I guess we should have seen it coming.  His wife and kid never even moved to Fayetteville"?

If you owned a company and hired a new CEO, would it concern you if his family didn't move your city?

I dunno. I think Chandler did one heck of a Hog Call. So let him be happy ;D

The kid should be supporting his father's endeavor. Living in Texas while his father lives in Fayetteville, Arkansas is not supporting his father's endeavor. My father was a minister for 40 years and not one time did the family ever consider staying and living in 1 town while dad Pastored a church in another town. Such a thing would have been completely ridiculous. If the kid was going to be a Senior next year MAYBE I could understand him staying but he's not. He's finishing his Sophomore year of high school in May or June.

After we criticize the Coach and the AD on how they raise their children, I think we should make dang sure that Mrs. Morris knows our opinion on what color she paints her kitchen. You know, recruiting and all.

Well, it's not your call. Not every family is like yours, either. I highly doubt you were a successful high school quarterback at a high-powered school in Texas while your father had the opportunity to coach an SEC program.

You're chastising a kid for not supporting his father's endeavors when his father is clearly perfectly fine with it and allowing his family to do what's best for them.

The Morris family: "Dad, are you okay with this?" "Absolutely, son. This is what's best for you and your life."
Hogville: "WRONG!"

Ya know, some things in life are circumstantial.
