Tune in if you want to see our new coach in action.

I hope he is our new coach.

[Dr. Sheldon Cooper]

1 play, 89 yd TD pass...

[Paul]

I hope to God. Love watching his offense

[#1 STUNNA]

They are fast

[Bubba's Bruisers]

They are fast

Speed.  What a ground breaking concept.  We should try that.

[grayhawg]

And O line opens some big holes

[bkjbearcat]

Well it won't be Chip Kelly. Kind of glad he won't be in the SEC.

It's east Carolina guys, they are one of the worst college football teams this year.

[hogfanmd]

Memphis state is 9-1 and ranked #20
He will land at an SEC school IMO
Whether it is us or not

So is Coastal Carolina....

Norvell, Gus, Campbell. If Arkansas gets anyone else other then those I know a lot of people will be disappointed. Well unless it's a miracle and Gundy or Venables.

I remember us playing ECU at the liberty bowl and going to OT
My frost bite has almost healed

good teams... make horrible teams look horrible...

[Bacons Rebellion]

"Norvell" would make a good car brand. "Nothing handles adversity on the road like a Norvell XT Sport."

Da heck?

I don't think we can say who's the worst football team, we rank right there with them.

[hogfanmd]

Well played

Do you even Leach, Bro?

Oh sh*t! I thought the iron bowl tonight. Thanks for the heads up.

[SquidBilly]

Memphis is up 35-0 with 8 mins left in the 2nd quarter.  East Carolina is not a good team this year but Norvell is showing us how you handle your business against inferior teams.  And he's doing it while also being a players coach.  He needs to be wearing Razorback red shortly after this game is over.

Hard to judge him when he's not facing some talent like Coastal Carolina would show,

[SquidBilly]

Make that 42-0 with 6 mins to go in the 2nd quarter.

[AirWarren]

Make that 42-0 with 6 mins to go in the 2nd quarter.

If he was playing a team worth a damn, it would be 42-35.

[onebadrubi]

Find where I said we should keep Bielema.  If you are judging a coaches performance over beating awful teams, don't be mad if he can't beat the South Carolina's and ms state.

Only if you're watching a replay. 2:30 this afternoon.

[regi]

Mumphis gives up 32 points,  465 yards total offense a game.  He may get an SEC job,  with so many openings,  but nothing in his bio,  says,  he will fix our terrible,  on-going defensive woes. It want matter,  cause he is not coming here

[SquidBilly]

Now its 49-0 with 2 mins left to go in the half.    Seems Memphis can play a little defense after all.  3 ints so far including one pick 6.

[hawg1221]

Thanks. I noticed that right after I posted this.

[jgphillips3]

Norvell is still my favorite candidate. 

[MissippHog]

His team was ranked 15th or so in turnover margin going into today's game, but that's not allowed to be discussed around here.  Only how bad his defense is.

Those stats look bad if not put in the proper context.  Most of Memphis' scoring drives today have been two minutes or less giving the other teams offense more time on the field.  That's where winning the turnover margin is more critical than shutting your opponents down on defense.  Every turnover Memphis has gotten today has resulted in a TD.  If your defense can give your offense two or three extra posessions a game and your offense is able to do something with those, you're going to win 10 out of 10 times.

his defense is actually very good at what they do- they compliment the spread.

[hawgball40]

I'm sold. Dude is an oppurtunistic recruiter on defense just like petrino was, he's already poaching alabama left overs. the redshirt sophomore in the secondary named perry is a player, and he was one of those players bama tried to grayshirt. Dear PTB, throw 3.2m at Norvell plus 2 or 3m in incentives and see if he bites.

[Birminghog]

Is he auditioning today? 

[ShadowTheHedgehog]

Is he auditioning today? 

My thought exactly.

[DoubleReedHawgCaller]

That was beautiful

[DoubleReedHawgCaller]

Looks like special teams are really special in Memphis.

[hawg1221]

Is he auditioning today? 

Looks like it, huh?

[Maddhog]

I like Norvell.  He has a good rapport with his players, he's smart, I love the offense and he is just in his 30s.   There would be some risk in hiring him but a really high ceiling as well.  Plus we wouldn't have to break the bank to get him.  He apparently wants us, warts and all.   I absolutely could be wrong but I believe he is a rising star in the profession and I am interested in following his career wherever he goes.

Completely agree.

Norvell is puttin on a show today. No defense you say? Hold em to less than 20, while scoring damn near a HUNDRED.

[CountryHam]

He is a coach most of the fanbase could get behind. As bad as E Carolina is we would probably only be up 7-10 points. Bring on Norvell!

They score at will and its TDs, not FGs.

He would be sensational at Florida. 

[Ragnar Hogbrok]

Truth. I've forgotten what that's like.

63-13 end of 3. Playing with a running clock.

Go awburn
