Who do you use and how easy is it to cash? Looking to possibly get in on the early year lines.

Huge overseas, but relatively unknown in the USA. I love his earlier stuff. Now he seems to be turning to "the ladies" and this may be a winner for him to break into the USA market.

This has been talked about a little bit but how long do we really expect to have our Big 3 coaches all things considered? The best case scenario is Sam turns the program around and goes down as a really great hire, bringing us back to national relevance. With the likeliness of that in question, one thing that isn't is the turnover of coaches at all levels of football. My random thought today currently revolves around developing coaches and creating a "coaching tree" from within. Three focuses of that are first Sam retiring after this job and the possibility of promoting Kendall Briles into the role of Head Man. He'd be a younger hire, familiar with the program, and have plenty of coaching connections to rely on including pops. Second promoting Justin Stepp into the role of OC with play calling duties. He'd also be a hire that's familiar with the program, excellent recruiter and brings that element to any staff, and also has familiarity of concepts with at least 4 different strains of the spread concepts with the main two being the Briles' Veer-and-Shoot strain and Gus's 100looks1run strain. Lastly promoting Rion Rhoads into the role of DC. He'd be a more experienced hire that has time spent as a DC and HC at the junior college level, have been around one of the more multiple defensive minds in Barry Odom, and also have time in the SEC coaching the middle of the defensive unit he'd be chief of game planning for. What are you guys thoughts on having potential coordinator hires already on staff vs searching for a completely new scheme? And of course this all revolves around success with Sam.

Right now. Just started at 7

I did a piece like this back in May when everyone still had 12-game slates, so I thought it might be good to update it now that the SEC has 10-game, conference-only schedules... https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/us...er-under-win-total-bets-on-10-game-sec-slates

The media's preseason All-SEC teams and predicted order of finish were announced today. Rakeem Boyd landed on the second team and the Hogs were picked last in the West (surprise, surprise). Here's how I voted... https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/hutch-s-ballot-for-preseason-all-sec-predicted-order-of-finish

Been so long, I can't remember who used to start this thread so I'm just going to kick it off...

On paper, this is a total mismatch: https://arkansas.rivals.com/news/arkansas-georgia-star-power-pff-grades-stat-comparison

And $150 cash for 2 tickets to the Arkansas vs Georgia game.

I am old enough to remember him in his prime. Not a long career but he had a style of his own. He was so much fun to watch. I remember tearing up watching I Am Third about him and Brian Piccolo. It also had some funny scenes. RIP to him and prayers to his family.

31-27 things go bad for Georgia early, the Hog's feed off the excitement (energy) and hold on to win, Georgia wins in the stats but Razorbacks hold on where it counts and pandemonium breaks out in NWA and then all over the Razorback Nation...

Meant to post last night but the NBA draft will be on Nov. 18, it was originally supposed to be in June.

The weekly SEC coaches teleconference was this morning. Here is the audio from the Sam Pittman and Kirby Smart interviews...

I've seen it discussed on here and elsewhere that folks are skeptical of some teams trying to skirt the contact tracing rules because of the required 14-day quarantine. I guess the SEC was worried about that, too, so they've partnered with a technology company to help prevent that.

Here's the press release by the SEC (I found this interesting):

The Southeastern Conference is providing cutting-edge wearable proximity devices, produced by global technology leader KINEXON, to its 14 member institutions to enhance COVID-19 contact tracing efforts during the 2020 football season, the Conference announced Tuesday.

KINEXON SafeZone technology includes lightweight, wearable devices, called SafeTags, which will be used conference-wide for football student-athletes at team facilities, during practices and games.

Approximately the size of a watch face, the device is worn as a wristband or on a lanyard or can be built into equipment for use on-field in practices and games.

"Through this new relationship with KINEXON, the SEC is committed to using innovative technology to provide solutions for use by our member institutions as we all work to support a healthy environment for student-athletes," said SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey. "KINEXON provides the SEC with a modern and effective solution to meet the unique contact tracing challenges associated with football."

The SafeZone technology, which is being used by the NFL, has been chosen by the SEC for the sport of football due to the large number of participating student-athletes and the complexity of contact tracing unique to the sport. Determining proximity and length of interaction during football games presents an opportunity to use KINEXON's innovative technology due to the number of players on the field and the speed of the game.

"SafeZone was created to meet the unprecedented challenges teams and leagues were facing while identifying solutions to return to play safely," said KINEXON Executive Vice President Jim Garofalo. "By adopting our technology, the SEC remains at the forefront of innovation in college athletics. SafeZone will provide student-athletes with a proven modern approach to contact tracing."

SafeZone uses ultra-wideband technology to accurately calculate the proximity between individuals by distance and length of time in order to perform quick and accurate contact tracing when someone is symptomatic or tests positive for COVID-19. The contact data is logged in a secure system and can be accessed to contact trace in the event of an infection.

The SafeTags can also be used to enforce physical distancing regulations by flashing a red warning light when people are within six feet of each other.

Contact tracing has long been recognized by public health experts as one of the most effective strategies to limit the spread of infectious disease. Contact tracing is a key element in the SEC's COVID-19 management plan, among a set of protocols that employ testing, physical distancing and facility sanitization.
