Norvell

[Pig in the Pokey]

Hope he can recruit and play defense.

hell yeah he can. 20% better scoring defense than the Hogs played, #2 in the nation in takeaways, top ten in scoring margin, and top ten in special teams.
Oh, and the #2 offense.

OUT of 130+ teams!

[rhames]

They may have been told not to.

Instead they are tweeting asking when they will get a coach?


No. They haven't been told anything and wouldn't keep a secret even if they were told to. Our administration would be dumb to tell the players and not put out a release


Guv, you're guilty again of believing something without applying logic.

I asked kam curls dad lol

[WorfHog]

Can you be a GOAT and be #2?

Maybe the #1 is some wartime record that will never be broken?

Hey, I was right all along about Gus. Don't knock it.

[Paul]

Can you be a GOAT and be #2?

yes...if that's your jersey number

[Pig in the Pokey]

Can you be a GOAT and be #2?

#1 in total yards isnt the guy who is #1 in total catches? Idk, the UCA guys love dude.

[rhames]

Hey, I was right all along about Gus. Don't knock it.

Lol. Ok.

[Sigepgator702]

He coaches at Pulaski Robinson.  He said this has been ongoing for about a week.  I'm not stating this as fact; I'm just passing along information.  He's not one to make things up just for dramas sake. 

[BILLYBOB]

If we hire Norvell, I'll certainly pull for him. But i have a feeling, in 3-4 years, we're going to be right back in the exact same spot we are now.

[hawginbigd1]

Lol. Buddy who knows a high school coach. Yeah, when a head coach at a div 1 school changes jobs, the high school coaches are told before anyone else. Hahahahahaha.

Let me see if I can help you here

Kid is born
He plays football in High School
They interact with these people called High School coaches
Some get scholarships to play at the UofA and others walk on
During this time some don't lose the coaches number who helped them along the way
They may just talk to them from time to time about things of interest

I know it sounds somewhat fantastical but it could happen

If Norvel is our HC, don't you think he would be telling any of his current commits to memphis that he wanted to bring with him about it?  I ampretty sure their coaches would know.  But hey, don't let common sense get in the way of your, whatever it is you do besides doom and gloom.

I'm sure someone he trusts told him it's Norvell. It may be. It isn't done yet though. And they haven't been sitting on it for a week. The players haven't been sitting on it for a week


Do you really believe 105, 18-23 year olds have been sitting on info the whole state is wanting for a week?

[rickm1976]

Well, every high school coach should definitely be in the know.

Speaking from first hand knowledge, you'd be surprised how much of a network HS coaches develop even in a short time with themselves and all of their former colleagues who have moved on from place to place and back and forth in HS/College.  If one of them says he has inside information through a fellow coach at University "X", it may very well be true.

No. He wouldn't because those people would tell everyone.

[Sigepgator702]

He also stated that many high school coaches here do not like Gus at ALL!

[JONAS]

No. He wouldn't because those people would tell everyone.

Yep.  He would not tell them.

[jgcat4]

Does he coach at Gosnell?

No. He doesn't run the wing-t

[Inhogswetrust]

No.  I live in Hernando, MS.

Nice little town.

[HognotinMemphis]

hell yeah he can. 20% better scoring defense than the Hogs played, #2 in the nation in takeaways, top ten in scoring margin, and top ten in special teams.

OUT of 130+ teams!

In the AAC. It won't be anything resembling that at Arkansas in the SEC West. Here is Memphis' schedule this year:

La-Monroe
UCLA
Southern Il
UCF
Connecticut
Navy
Houston
Tulane
Tulsa
SMU
East Carolina
and UCF again

Best team they played by far is UCF. Go check UCF's schedule. They beat nobody in going 12-0. But they beat Memphis twice. Other than UCF, only 3 others on the schedule had winning records: SMU, Houston and Navy (maybe, if they beat Army this weekend). So whatever Memphis' stats are this year, they did it versus a weaker than Arkansas has played EVER. Put this Memphis team in the SEC and they would not have averaged 20 points per game.

You boys have no idea what you are looking at.

[HF#1]

There is no way you can tell a player and keep it quiet. I have yet to see any player tweet anything about a new coach.

[JONAS]

Nice little town.

We like it here.  Good schools.

Pulaski Robinson is Joe T. Robinson High School right?

If so, we have 3 players on the roster from Robinson. TJ Hammonds, Koilan Jackson, and David Porter.

So, he does probably get some info.

[Pig in the Pokey]

@HiM-

you act like he'd have the same assistants and same 2-3*s at Fayetteville that he had at Memphis.

Your posts are like your politicians you love so much- a bunch of false equivalencies and disingenuous nonsense.

he went 10-1 regular season against teams with equal talent.
In the SEC he will have to have close to equal talent or fail
right now he has a stacked with returning starters and 4* talent laden team waiting for him on the Hill.

This isnt 1980 anymore, old man.

[johnny cash]

Tonight just shows how stupid this university is. When u think of the hogs, play the Beverly hillbilly theme song.

Roll Tide!

I cannot disagree.

[Matt Burks]

If our players knew, wouldn't they be tweeting about it?

They did in response to an article on Twitter. When was that? Monday, Tuesday? I don't remember

[rhames]

FWIW Ive had a few coaches and a few media types PM me saying It was gonna be Norvell.

See this is where it's hard for me to not call you out for being FOS


You're saying media people know it's a done deal, but they aren't reporting it? Instead they are sending PMs to some rando on hogville?

LOL

[rhames]

Some of them said they would be excited for norvell


After the Gus news broke today, Ryan Pully asked when we were getting a coach.


They know less than we do.

and some have known all week and had to delete tweets.

You think you know everything, but you really dont know darn.

[HoggyCat]

You see that doormat to the SEC-W?


Lift ups corner and you'll see Arkansas if true.

[Tim Harris]

Maybe we will find out something soon.

You have no idea unless you have a crystal ball.  If you do, tell me who is going to win the Super Bowl.  I want to place a bet.

I hope so.  Ready for this to be over.

[Arkansas Fan]

I'm ready to get a coach. I'm tired of waiting.

[Rayzback]

No.  I live in Hernando, MS.

My Dad lives on Arkabutla.

[RedRock]

Norvell needs to stop by Earle and get Gerry Bohanan on his way to the Fay. That would be an awesome duo.

[rhames]

and some have known all week and had to delete tweets.

Hahaha. You don't know anymore than I do



So some players know, but not all?? Right.

Oh yeah. In a world where the media is more concerned with being first than being right it makes perfect sense for them to PM pig in the pokey on hogville when they know that Norvell to arkansas is a done deal

[JONAS]

My Dad lives on Arkabutla.

I've been there.

[fdx flyer]

We like it here.  Good schools. 

Small world!  I live in Hernando too.  Been here for 12 years.  Both kids went to school here and are now at Ole Miss.

[JONAS]

Norvell needs to stop by Earle and get Gerry Bohanan on his way to the Fay. That would be an awesome duo.

Yes.  We need him.

Bog it where the sun don't shine.

" GO HOGS "

[Pig in the Pokey]

one of the coaches that messaged me knows bohanon really well and said that is EXACTLY what will happen. We get Norvell and Bohannon. ill predict that, too.

[Pig in the Pokey]

[casken]

My buddy who is a coach in high school just texted me that Norvell will be our new head coach.  He said the 🐗 players are already pumped and talking about it!  Hope this is reliable!

That would be great!
