The NEXT Coach

[Olhickoryhog]

I also appreciate the info and agree with JD to hang around and post more.

There used to be (maybe still is) a BBQ restaurant in Hoxie named Ole Hickory.  I went there many times with my papaw and it was very good.  Your name reminded me of that.

Thanks,  I've driven through Hoxie once in my life on my way to Walnut Ridge.  Probably won't be going back to either any time soon but if I do, I'll definitely check out the restaurant.  The name was supposed to be a nod to Andrew Jackson, but somehow when I was typing in my username, I typed in ol instead of old.  I just went with it.

Athlon recently had an article linking Oregon's OC Will Stein to both the Ok State and Arkansas jobs.  I doubt there is much interest in either direction, but we could probably do worse if we are going the "up and comer" route.  He got his start in coaching as a quality control coach at Louisville under Strong and then Petrino.  Jeff Trayler hired him when he took the UTSA job prior to 2020, and Stein took over as OC for Lunney when he followed Bert to Illinois prior to 2022.  Stein actually improved the offense over Lunney in his one year there and UTSA (and Trayler) have regressed quite a bit since he left UTSA.  Bo Nix credited Stein with a lot of his development.  Although in retrospect when you've had Chad Morris as an OC, anyone else probably seems like Bill Walsh so maybe that doesn't mean a whole lot.

Damn, I miss those.

Raisin's gamethread writeup and Baker's post game analysis was good stuff.  Too bad they both noped out once the P&R winds changed.

Is that why they left?  Damn.  That sucks.  I miss those write ups.  I figured it was just the suckitude of our program, having to write about it driving them to failed livers and swallowed barrels.

Political leaning of the board changed and they, along with a lot of old timers, couldn't handle it.  Covid vaccine discussions ended Rasin's time around here.

That's really why he left? He seemed highly intelligent. And certainly a funny motherfucker.

It bled into the other boards as well, unfortunately.  The place got tiresome, even if you stopped looking over there.

I've found the best way to avoid getting worked up about posters' politics is just to hate all sides.

This is the healthy way to manage it.

This does seem more in the spirit of woopig

I know people venture over there, and I have too, but I often wished for the PR board to just go away for this reason.  Good posters about sports got into heated fights over the things that had nothing to do with Razorbacks.

And they are right that it would spill over into other threads and muck them up too.

I tend to agree but I'm afraid if P&R was not there for people to go vent about politics then it would REALLY bleed over into the other boards.

I agree with this.  Unfortuante and wish that hadn't happened.

By the way, glad you are back posting.

He's probably still wearing a mask.
