I heard some rumors about this a few weeks ago,  but it looks like Murf, and the Ball Hawg brand, are moving to ESPN WPS. And I'm starting to hear rumblings that they have a daily radio show coming soon.

I love these kinds of articles, they give you a ton of insight.
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

than the Arkansans--fearless, brave, and oftentimes courageous beyond
prudence. Dickart History of Kershaws Brigade.

Agreed. Murf always provides a lot of play breakdowns which I enjoy reading about.

Reading things like that remind me how little I truly know about the ins and outs of the game.

Great article. Thanks for the link.   :razorback:

I never knew there was such a site as espnlr.com. I will check it out more often.

Not only the head movement, but the stacking of the receivers in levels so he can see multiple receivers at the same time. All of that makes me wonder if any of the "Staring down the receivers club", even watched the game at all.
Born a HOG and will die a HOG, but that's not the only way to become a HOG

I tried to explain exactly this point Saturday or Sunday.  It was ignored.

Congrats Murf!!!

Thanks Paul! Always good to talk Hogs and I needed a Hog-specific place I could do my thing at -- and this works out great. When the show launches it should be even better ya, know?

Really? That's interesting to know, Res. That ESPN WPS site is under major construction as it's being totally re-done, while SDS has been at it for a while.

Funny how things happen, huh?

Lol, I normally don't like to talk about other guys in the media, but that dude is the worst!!! He seems pretty heady, but I really don't dig his style or knowledge of anything. He should be on like a political-type show.

Congrats Murf. It goes to show that if you put the time into really knowing what you're talking about and studying the content, it pays off. The reason your stuff has caught on so fast, especially with hog fans, is that we aren't used to the guys concentrating on our team really having the football chops enough to dig in and analyze the team like you do. Great job man.

Woo Pig Murf.
Intelligent in-depth football and Hog analysis. Most welcome.

PR, I can dig that, bro. However, the fan base -- especially here on Hogville - is full of very knowledgeable posters, like yourself, or those eager to learn. This is definitely a step in the right direction for my career, but I will say that I'm now in prove it mode as I'm in front of new decision makers who may not be aware of what we're building, ya know?

I thoroughly enjoy covering this squad, though. But hopefully people recognize that  still have to keep the bias out to actually cover the team correctly. Too much fandom in our business...

Thanks, PR!

If I were Murf I would be burning up Bielema's phone applying for the analyst job that Steve Loney had last year.  I think he would be great at it...

Good job, Murf and congrats on the move up. You do good work and I am happy for your success.

I put the "staring down the receivers" folk in the same camp as the "get your back elbow up" folk in baseball.  Neither one really knows what they're talking about nor do they know how to fix whatever is wrong.  All they know is to shout out some nonsense to make it seem like they know something.

It really is this simple. Unchecked government power leads to corruption, and lack of accountability for it is drastically eroding confidence in our institutions.    aristotle

Thanks Murph, I learn a lot form your interviews......Congrats & Welcome.
You do a helluva job.....YOU are right up there with Mike & Richard.......
Oh yea & UGLY guy   ;D  Keep up the good work....Lookin forward

Good job Murf.
I look for BA to team with CDE and we will implement an efficient quick game that blends perfectly with CBBs core philosophy. Combine a couple of 1000 yd. rushers with chain moving passes and we will grind the defenses down.
With our current talent level we should be in all games in '15 and win some SEC games going away.
Coach Enos combining with CBB is a fundamental fit, from the core out. They're coming from the same root philosophy.
Your use of plays, and attached descriptions to enhance the narrative, is both professional and interesting at the same time.
Keep up the good work as we'll enjoy every article.

Count me in with those with the learning curve. Love the Hogs, but I don't know an 11 from a 12 from a, well, you get it, but I somehow think you can explain it to me. Never heard of you before this, but I  am very impressed with your excellent writing. You, Unc, Mike, and a few others are interesting, informative, and intellectually engaging. Some of the guys out there seem to have trouble matching subject and verb.

Thank you for a well-written article that is engaging even to those of us less knowledgeable.

I'm not trying to be funny, but there are only a few people on my radar in the media, and they are usually on the radio or being featured on a prominent site where they are under some type of contract, like myself, you feel me?

Other than that, why would I know this person? And if this person is doing their thing on that level, I apologize.
