I want him SO bad! This kid has so much potential, but he's just been a dumb kid in the past...he was dismissed from Aubrun, then ASU..sat out the year and now he wants to come play for Arkansas...if Bielema will take him, I'm pretty sure he's ours. Can you imagine Dyer, Jonathan Williams, AND Alex Collins!? Man, I'm PUMPED! I know he has a rough history...but he's had a couple years to mature, and maybe he has...maybe he hasn't. But he's worth taking a chance on IMO...the kid can play. And most of you probably don't know who Jonathan Williams is..or Alex Collins for that matter. Jonathan Williams was one of the top RB recruits last year...a 4 star...he was very good as a true Freshman this past season. I was impressed every time I saw him run, and I know he's a good upcoming RB...Collins was one of the top RB recruits this year...he was ranked as the #1 RB on a couple sites.. (I think?).. a 5 star on some a 4 star on others...I watched his highschool highlights on youtube...he looks really good. If we get Dyer, our backfield will be freakin amazing. We got 4 star OT Kirkand this year too...and Swanson is pretty good. Bielema said our OLine has vastly improved. Noticed more improvement in them than anyone...I'm so excited
In other news...it appears Brandon Allen is gonna be the starting QB for Arky this year...instead of Brandon Mitchell...at least that's how it looks right now. And I do hope he gets the job...we could use Mitchell at WR. We're pretty weak at WR. And Allen was a top 5 QB recruit (could be wrong...I bet MarchingOn knows). He looked BAD in limited time last year...he played the 2nd half in the UL Monroe game and kinda blew it for us...I can't really place the blame on him...moreso JLS/Petrino's horendous playcalling...1st game this kid has ever played and they want to pass 3 straight downs in OT after he'd already been really struggling. Then he got his 1st start against Bama..and..well..you all know how that one went. But I think he can be a very good QB...he should be the starter for now. But if he struggles, then I say give Mitchell a shot.
