Would have been nice if he stayed, but Youngblood is the "have to have" of the group.

[intoxhog]

I'm glad he isn't going to play pro baseball.

This sux freshlegs, i really liked what i saw from this kid. He can make throws to all points on the field. IM bummed.

[jschulte]

Yes, that really does suck.  He was one of the only things to get excited about next year.

Thing is, he is injured the whole season, I think it might of been smart to stick with Arkansas.

[IHateVitale]

all hail the great HDN! he's laughing at this right now because it has no effect on him what so ever....the DORK will be at Baylor next year, he wanted this to happen....

[Bama Hog™]

Not surpising at all. I am sure the spin is coming..."Darksideres run off recruits", etc...

[Hugulus Hog]

Once we get Callahan hired, he shouldn't be difficult to recruit again.

this is all just the beginning of whats supposedly is supposed to happen if coach nutt isnt going to be here next season. plus, i guess the realized he was just going to be a hander-offer anyways

[intoxhog]

HDN doesn't give  a Ch** anylonger. he knows he is gone therefore are recruiting is going to suffer BIG TIME... FIRE THE DORK NOW!!

yep,, folks when we lose our next SEC game the BAC has every excuse to fire his @** (not that they don't already)

[navyhog24]

but the fact is, they wont pull that quick trigger. it seems as if they never will to be honest

[beansandtaters]

That stinks...can't say I blame him though. He was one of the recruits excited about the new "pro style offense" we were debuting this season. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

[SigPig]

Hugger response: "Thats just great, all the fan negativity surrounding our coach has led to recruits decommitting because there is uncertainty as to who will be the coach next year. Hope you're proud of yourselves darksiders."

Darksider response: "Thats just great, this horribly coached team started off with a nice bunch of early commitments, including a talented QB in Pick, only to donkey off several winable games thus losing the confidence of our early commits. Hope you're proud of your coach huggers!"

What can we take away from this? Either way you look at your team there are too many bad things happening with the current coaching staff. Losing games, fan dissention, and losing recruits.

Its time for a change, and I GUARANTEE it will happen.

[OneLardAlmighty]

The kid is no Tony Romo.  He probably figured out he wasn't good enough to run the new 'pro-style' offense. 

I'm glad he's gone.  I only want kids who want to be Razorbacks. 

Now excuse me while I go back to my office to do 'the traditional go-hogs spell out!'

[Nashville Fan]

Someone tell him that if he has a reporter following him around not to say anything bad about HDN. Just in case .....

[Bomis Hawg]

Probably a Jayhawk?
With KU's start, I wouldn't be shocked.

[regi]

Maybe he will comitt to Baylor?

[Marshfieldhog]

Look for Grit to say he was overrated anyway.

[HogBaptist]

Probably a Jayhawk?

I might be smoking crack, but I thought he was going to commit to Kentucky.

[Tomhog™]

That was my thinking.  In-state pressure on him to stay in-state.  Winston Guy from Kentucky  is another one whose home team is doing better than average.  He's getting a lot of pressure as well.

Smart Kid avoiding the QB Killer HOOTEN NUTT!

I am not expecting Nutt to be the coach next season, but I would expect Pick would be the ideal QB for Houston Nutt.  He has good speed, which would allow him to be used in different ways than how Casey is used at QB.  He doesn't have the speed of Matt Jones, but still he has good speed.

He can also throw, and throw well. very accurate with good power.

[Tusks]

There's a Kansas fan in the thread that says Pick was 'taken aback' by the lack of passing game the hogs run.  hooten told the kid they were going to 'open it up' but he's not seeing it.

Combine that with Kansas success this year and this is what you get.  He committed to the Hogs because he wanted to play for a top 20 team and was told the hogs would be passing more so he thought it was a good fit.  Fast forward and the starting QB throws for 96 yards against the worse team in the league......it doesn't help that the hogs are setting 11th in a 12 team league.

[3kgthog]

But firing Houston Nutt would kill recruiting! Apparently keeping him is what is killing recruiting. Winston Guy, the Warren guys waffling, Pick decommitting. Who's next?

I do think that Nutt would open things up some with Pick, if Pick proved capable of throwing the ball well at the college level, especially since Pick is one you could roll out and do different things with in both the passing and running game.  I do not know how much we would open things up, but under Nutt, it seems that good QBs are reluctant to come and stay, and the ones that we have aren't really good enough to open things up with.  Even so, it does fall back to coach and his staff.

[Skullthumpers]

Ocean called it.  Nutt is looking for yes men.  Pick probably isn't one of those guys.  If we got him, he would leave after a year or just get switched to receiver.  Please, spare us the trouble and recruit people for the position.

[bigyellowdog]

Sunshine will be chastising the darksiders today on DTS after he gets through drooling over the stats of the Ole Miss game.

[Albert Einswine]

I think it is imperative that an announcement be made now that Nutt will coach till the final horn sounds at the LSU game and that a careful search for his replacement has already begun.

This way, any commits we have will make their decision based on the certainty that Nutt's gone and can weigh options as they wait to see who we hire to replace him.

I understand where you are coming from, but then again making a statement like that now even leaves a longer time of limbo.  You would basically have a staff no longer recruiting, while other coaches would gain serious ground on our committed recruits, plus the ones that are uncommitted that we are after.  The shorter time of limbo, between an actual firing/resignation, versus the new coach coming in, the better.  Serious ground work can already be in the works before any kind of public announcement is made.

What would be tough for making a coaching change, is if the Hogs go to a bowl game, and the time period in between the end of the regular season and the bowl game.  That leaves a long limbo period too, since one wants to make the change at the end of the regular season, but often it is hard to get the ideal new guy until after the bowl game.

[cj_sez]

With Nutt's record of ruining or abusing QB's, it's not surprising to see one decommit. I don't blame the kid. Put the blame where it belongs, on a coach who makes promises he never intends to keep.
Help recruiting, FIRE NUTT!!

If they already know they're gone I doubt they're really hitting it hard on the recruiting trail.

Are the Warren guys waffling?? I haven't heard anything??  WOuldn't be surprising, but I haven't seen anything. Can you elaborate?

[havok]

What hurts is this guy is obviously has a good head on his shoulders....  he sees that this place with the Dork is a dead end for QB's and receivers who want to get to the next level..and is seeking out a place that knows how to develop players.

[TheHogFan]

According to most on here he wasn't that good anyways because of his other offers. This should be everyone happy right?

BTW, I think he is going to be a great QB after looking at his film.

[TulsaHogFan]

Isn't there a pretty long dead period in recruiting during bowl season? For some reason I thought there was a period where coaches can't talk to recruits during that time.

Sorry but I could have sworn there was.

Why did he commit in the first place then?

I would say that the current state of affairs comes across as more stable than making a public announcement now.  Let the season play out some more, if the Hogs lose another game or two, then it might be late enough in the season to make such an announcement.  A public annoucement right now would also garner more media attention, which of course, could be negative.

[dougieritch]

Don't blame the kid, we run the most pathetic offense in college football, plus Kansas is having a great year.

Melhog, not only are some of the Warren guys (the 4 star receiver said he was open to being recruited by others but remains committed to Ark.) but also at least one of the Camden recruits have been taking visits.

[Nutts and Bolts]

I am still thinking Nathan Dick will be the QB for the next four years... Starting next year... AHEAD of his brother...The new coach will hopefully be able to identify that ability... IMO of course
