Justifiable Hogicide

It's going to be tough/stressful on Coach Morris to have his whole family living in Texas while he is alone in Fayetteville trying to live and coach an SEC football team. It may even be a recruiting issue used by our opponents too.
Hopefully his son has a great season in Dallas and then the Morris family makes Arkansas their home.

It's not on the kid. His father should insist that he and his mom move to NWA after his school year in Texas ends in May or June.

You've gotta be some kinda prick to think you can tell another (and much more successful) man how to handle his family's affairs.

Nope, it isn't.


As much as you believe you have a say in how other people ought to manage their family life,  you do not, and your internet proselytizing is pathetic.

You have your opinion and I have mine. I appreciate the way I was raised.

Moving his family with him to NWA shows his total commitment to the U of A. Leaving his son and wife in Texas tells me that his heart is not in being at the U of A and that as soon as a good D1 job offer comes from a University in Texas, he's gone. It's no secret that he preferred the A&M job over the Arkansas job. He has my support as Hog head coach but his still owning a house in Texas with his son and wife still living there makes me wonder how long he'll stay put at Arkansas.

He's committed to his family first and foremost. What a terrible guy.

I don't blame him.

Again, that may be true, but why is it your business? He is the coach at Arkansas until he isn't. That's it.

His family is his business. My concern is his committment to the U of A and leaving his family in Texas doesn't exactly show a solid committment to the U of A.

I'm a long time Hog fan and what's best for the U of A football program is what matters to me.

I want a head coach that WANTS to be at the U of A and it's THE job that he wants. I hope I'm wrong and Chad Morris is much more committed to the U of A than I think he is.

Make snide remarks all you want but my point is a valid one.

No it isn't, it's a dumb point, and one you are making based on very limited information about the personal lives of the coach and his family.  You aren't privy to their reasons for handling things this way and as long as he is doing his job it has nothing to do with you or any of us as fans.  It's a five hour drive or an hour twenty by plane, less if you are going on a private jet. The kid is a presumptive QB starter at a prestigious program.  I assume he has worked hard to get to that position, and I don't blame his dad for not making him start over somewhere else.

Guv with the way Coach Morris has work his butt off I have to say he is committed. He has caused me to back up and rethink and I am not thrilled with the hire. I just hope he told the powers to be that his family wasn't moving with him during the interview process.

What Texas job that is a homerun are you expecting to come open that will send Morris back to Texas?

Herman has Texas Locked up.
Jimbo is starting fresh at TAMU.
Houston is nowhere near the job as Arkansas.
TTU has Kingsbury.
Baylor? Might as well seal his death fate.

Hey, Guv, let me break it down for you in its most simplistic form. If he didn't want the job, he wouldn't have taken the job. I know you don't do it often, but lets not work the brain too hard on this Monday.

NoogaHog

Guv has gotten himself into an interesting quandary. He is a "long time hog fan" who is going to find himself rooting for aTm to be successful so they will keep Jimbo. Poor fella is going to lay awake nights if aTm gets that 3rd loss in season 3.

If aTm does come to call CCM back home, that means we were successful and in a better circumstance than we are now. And with a good situation in which to bring another good coach.

Highland Park is one of the better public schools in the country. Most private schools in Dallas are not as good. AR schools don't compare. People buy condos in HP area to send their kids there. Since it is a public school it is cheaper to buy a house than to pay Private School tuition.

Let's just say that I don't like playing second fiddle to Texas A&M when it comes to hiring head coaches. It's very well known that if they had offered, he wouldn't be at the U of A right now. Like I said, I BADLY hope I'm reading the Tea Leaves wrong. I've heard and seen enough to believe that guy can flat out coach football.

He also applied for the A&M job first and did not really come after the U of A job until after A&M had made their hire. I can't say as I blame him for preferring that job. He would have been close to his daughter.

The Morris family is more than capable of deciding what is right and what works best for their family.  Coaching is a tough business and moving every few years takes a toll on those families.  As a military veteran, who moved a lot, I can relate on that level as I went to 4 different HS in four years.  It sucks to move all the time.  We should stay completely out of their personal lives and for damn sure not be involving their kids in our BS discussions about where they go to school.

Curious to know if Coach Morris' son Chandler will continue to play at Highland Park or transfer to an Arkansas school?
I don't know.  However, if he is good enough to play college football, he should go to a college where he can play; not warm the bench.  Unless he is good enough to eventually start at the UofA, he shouldn't attend the UofA just because his father is the head coach.

I know what you mean about moving a lot. My dad was a Minister.

In January of 1971 we moved from Pine Bluff to Mountain Pine (Garland County)
In November of 1971 we moved from Mountain Pine to just outside of Blytheville, Arkansas.
In February of 1972 we moved from Blytheville back to Mountain Pine.
In November of 1972 we moved from Mountain Pine to Paragould, Arkansas were I graduated from GCT in May of 1975.

My son spends much more time in his Taiwan office than his San Jose office where they live. He has two very young girls 7 and 2. Based on your post you must think he's a bad father and yours was better. I'd put up ANY amount of money to prove he's as good if not better. Especially since he doesn't try to brainwash them by making sure he's there to preach to them every day. Telling others HOW they should raise their kids is NOT cool.

Well, there you go. They just moved back home 3 years ago after spending several years in SC. Maybe the wife wants the kid to stay put for a while and have a home town. But that is none of my concern.

No, I'm sure he flies home to spend as much time with them as possible. Consider yourself lucky on being a proud dad and Grandpa, that's something I'll never have the privilege of doing.
