I missed the point about him being named Arkansas Game and Fish commissioner but AD would be more attractive to him I would think. That last AGF head quit and basically quoted too much stress.

If you don't know much about him, look the man up.

Haha, dude is 69 and about to keel over. I doubt we go that route.

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.

That would be sweet justice but I doubt he wants it at this point.

The Floating Spectral head of Frank Broyles would be a great option.

69 isn't very old. He appears young and healthy.

Mark it down. Book it . Sticky it at the top. I called the Bobby Petrino Hiring before he was ever on the radar. Go back in the archives. Long fired him for a reason. B/c Long new he could do a better job that himself.

Why would it be in the archives if you registered your account in 2016?

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 saw Chuck play.  He was superbly gifted, - - and VERY fleet-footed.

You should take a long serious look at your life and figure out where it went wrong.

I was told years ago that Dicus ran into Petrino at a. coaches meeting and discovered Petrino was looking for a way out at Atlanta. This info was passed on to the PTB and he was offered and hired.
Hog fan since 1960. So thankful for Sam Pittman.

Cartoon Man

Dicus is a friend of my Dad.  A very nice gentleman who loves the Razorbacks, and yes he would make a great AD.

When I was 72 my sixteen year old step daughter asked me how old I was.  When I told her, she said "damn you're about to croak".  I turn 83 next month and I now myself think "damn I'm about to croak."  Time and age changes everything.
There are all kinds of Lions, Tigers and Bears in college football.  But there is only one Razorback.  Beware the Tusks!!! They are coming

A life well lived, i'm sure. Pretty tech savvy for 82! Happy early birthday.

If true, we should beat the crap out of at least once.

There's only 2 guys with Arkansas ties, that are retirement age that I'd take as AD.... And Jerry J and Nolan are not either one taking the job.

I don't care who the new AD is. I just want that person to be all Arkansas and all Razorback. They need to be able to call the HOGS, properly I might add, from day one.

oldfart

I agree that 69 is not too old for someone who is in good health and physical condition.. hell im 80 and tho surely not as spry as i once was.. but still i dont think thats a good age to hire a new AD..  i think we are looking for someone who might have a good 10 yrs on the job if effective. 

Boog41

With age being brought up, I can't believe no one has bothered the mention that the President of the United States is older than Dicus.

EastexHawg

One thing is for sure, it it's Dicus we'll know we have someone who knows what it means to be a Razorback and loves it...and will expect and demand winning.

I watched him play his entire career and the bigger the game the more dominant he was...as in the Big Shootout and both Sugar Bowls. 

GlassofSwine

I think Dicus would be a good hire. 69 isn't too old either, Saban is 66 and still coaching.

I recall he was quite a clutch receiver back in the day. He was one of my earliest heroes when I was a kid.

If Dicus is in good health, he could come in for three or four years. Just a question if he wanted to.

Hopefully the new AD will be announced tomorrow or Monday.

I don't understand what all the rush is about hiring a new AD.  We got the job covered and anything that position needs to do can be done.

Well, it's older than Terry Don, who ya'll keep saying is too old. Same age as Trump, which, yeah, he may be too old. But if those guys ARENT too old, than a guy two years older isnt too older, either. Yes. Bernie2020. I dont wanna hear all the dead-guy jokes next year when campaigns ramp up.

because they are losing their minds that Gus wont want to work for a school with an empty AD position.... even though he is LITERALLY AT A SCHOOL WITH AN EMPTY AD POSITION LMFAO> These guys aint bright, but, if there is an opportunity to be insecure af they will jump all over that; hence the apprehension.

69? Think I recall both Joe Paterno and Bobby Bowden both having a little coaching success around 69 and later? Conventional wisdom would suggest the AD job responsibilities may not be quite as physically and emotionally demanding as head coaching, but, maybe I'm off base here? I'm sure an expert on here can take this subject over and set me straight.
