Luc Bequette

[SquidBilly]

If we strike out on a couple of guys I wouldn't mind seeing us offer Luc.  You have to think with the Bequette legacy at UA he'd jump on the offer.

[Hogg_Phan]

If we haven't offered him yet, I would rather save the scholarship than just start handing them out.

[1hogfan]

His legacy should have earned him an offer. I can't believe it didn't.

His dad, Chris, was an all SWC lineman and his mother Debbie was an Olympic Bronze medal winning ice skater. Some damn good genes there.

[PEtrader]

Why didn't he get an offer?

[TeedupHigh]

Legacy?  Need players, all about the wins

[Ugly Uncle]

Why didn't he get an offer?

No.  We showed interest, but I don't believe he ever got an official offer.  He committed to Cal a while back.  I assume he is still planning on going out there.

Or Florida....

I wonder if Florida has offered or asking him to walk-on. That being the case he needs to walk on in Fayetteville. I'm sure his parents could afford to pay his way. Chris is a lawyer and Debbie is an orthopedic surgeon. He's not a bad player.

[jcharkansas]

I'm guessing luc is in fact Jakes brother, but when you click his pic on 24/7 sports it was coming up with a black athlete, I guess this is just a mistake. It doesn't matter either way I was just curious is all.

Florida still has 10+ spots open. Doubt they are asking anyone to walk on.

I think they are cousins.

[jcharkansas]

Ok so that really is his pic? Or do we have some sarcasm in the answers

[ricepig]

Well, since we have no idea what you are looking at, who knows.

This is Luc.

Yea let me see if I can find it, it's been a few weeks since I looked at it

That's the one I was seeing, hope the link works

Ok I get it now if they are not brothers, I just always thought they were

[BadHog]

Luc is Jakes cousin. Not brother. And he is half African American and a great guy

Jake is Jay's son. Luc is the son of Chris Bequette and Debbie Thomas, a drop dead gorgeous black figure skater who was the 1986 world champion figure skating champion and 1988 Olympics Bronze medalist. Used to look like Halle Berry when she was younger but a 47 year old orthopedic surgeon in Little Rock now.

[jcharkansas]

Jake is Jay's son. Chris married Debbie Thomas a drop dead gorgeous black figure skater who was the 1986 world champion figure skating champion and 1988 Olympics Bronze medalist. Used to look like Halle Berry when she was younger but a 47 year old orthopedic surgeon in Little Rock now.

Thanks for the clarification, I was just confused is all.

Wow.  People respond and answer your question and you keep on.  Jake's cousin by way of his uncle Chris and Chris's wife Debbie Thomas, an Olympic figure skater.  Keep up.

Yea man no harm intended just took a few answers for me to get it sorry about that
I got it now, I'm not as quick as y'all are sometimes. Anyway I think he could be good. Go hogs

[ArmyOfnobunaga]

Any Bequette is a good Razorback in my opinion. I hope we get him.

[SquidBilly]

Any Bequette is a good Razorback in my opinion. I hope we get him.

To get him we'd have to offer him.  Hope we do.

[Hogman2]

If he is not GOOD ENOUGH, I agree with NOT offering!

[ArmyOfnobunaga]

If he is not GOOD ENOUGH, I agree with NOT offering!

How is your career as a coach going? Oh really, you must at least be an nfl scout...?


I for one will trust the guy up on the hill making millions of bucks a year to decide these things.

I think you should re read what he said.  You guys are agreeing.

your on a roll, aren't cha.

[Philip Seaton]

Offered by P5 schools, legacy, defensive lineman. Would like to see him offered, and hoping he gets one.

[scruf]

HV: "I want legacy players!"
Outsider: "Ok, what if the last name is Nutt?"

(HV grabs pitchforks)

[hvsupastar]

I don't care how good Fritz, David, Kevin, and Kerry were. If Chris Von Eric doesn't have the talent, he shouldn't be in the ring.

[Hogeration]

Man that is a funny post and really dates me that I even know who they are.  On a side note, what a tragedy that family became.  Oh, and David didn't belong in the ring with them either.

[HogAlum99]

Man, I'm getting old. I guarantee ya there a quite a few on here that have no idea what this means, but my old @$$ remembers those days well! Some of the best wrestling ever! Those matches with the Freebirds back then were some of the best.

OK I will admit Kerry and Kevin made a Badazz tag-team.

[texas tush hog]

Any Bequette is a good Razorback in my opinion. I hope we get him.

I don't recall Jay, Chris or Jake being that fabulous when they showed up on the hill but every one of them became stars with a lot of hard work, drive, and determination, believe Luc is cut out of the same cloth. And oh, don't forget Barry Switzer's roomate, George Bequette, their grandfather, one of the nicest guys I've ever known.

[reddogjcss]

If he's a Bequette give him a scholarship.
We owe the family that much and if he plays with that Bequette heart he will be a great player.

[texas tush hog]

My sentiments exactly.

[Uncommon]

SEC football is too cut throat now a days to give legacy scholarships.  Do wish him the best wherever he ends up.

[Ugly Uncle]

Man, I totally agree.  I hate to let any of them get away.

[BoynamedWooPigSooie]

His legacy should have earned him an offer. I can't believe it didn't.

This is how you remain in last place in the SEC West.

I remember Debbie Thomas well when she skated, and yes, she was drop dead gorgeous.  I sure didn't know she'd ended up in Arkansas.  I don't know anything about her husband, but her son looks to be a legit player that if we don't fill all our spots he might be a good 5th year player.

First of all. Did he want to come to U of A? It sounds like both of his parents are well educated. CAL is one of those schools like Stanford and Vanderbilt where you can't blame a kid for going there if they have higher educational aspirations. It aint all about athletics. Considering professional football players have the shortest average career, academics should matter more to a young man.

I think Chris's senior season was 1987. He was the starting right tackle who lined up alongside Freddie Childress in 1986 and 1987. Those were some good lines.

[OneTuskOverTheLine™]

Jake was also 6-5 and 271 vs Luc @ 6-2 250... Regardless we should all love to see another Bequette at Arkansas...

I'm sure there are many other kids out there with that last name.  Should we offer them all ?

[ImHogginIt]

Only if they are a good enough DL to draw offers from Cal and Florida like this one  :razorback:

[Tim Harris]

Last I read Florida was looking at him as a Center and not on the DL.  That could have changed by now but if not would you rather have him or Rogers?

[DeltaBoy]

We need to get that boy.
