Arkansas Razorbacks Spring Report: Names to Remember
Ryan Mallett still hurt, probably will help him a bit as well as our backups (in 2011, the team belongs to Brandon Mitchell - absolute TRUTH)
DEEP backfield, but Ronnie Wingo is the clearcut frontrunner, he will make himself known in the SEC this year. WR corps is probably the deepest in America (no homer
)
Defense is the only thing keeping this team from winning a title, talented group of freshmen coming in as well this fall. We had a great hire in Caldwell from UT fame.
Jake Bequette, Darius Winston, Isaac Madison, and Anthony Leon will make themselves known this year
..rest later, but this season looks to be a good one Petrino, they'll compete for a national title. Petrino is excited
..oh yeah, Mallett for Heisman

Demar Dorsey has sent a LOI to a JC. I knew that he had work to do to qualify so it looks like this may be a "just in case" kind of thing.
I read its a Auburn - UofM battle for Hart.

Just a precautionary thing w/ Dorsey, I agree. It's still plenty of time. I think when all is said and done, he'll be at U of M.
And I haven't heard AU mentioned w/ Hart. Hart and HCD are close, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were a 'package' type deal, and AU isn't even on the radar for HCD. Seems like Bama ---> FSU ---> ND (Which I have doubts about as well)
At the end of the day, I think they'll be driving around in cherry red Tahoe's, just like Ingram

Once UF, offers Hart then the process will begin.

I told y'all about HCD. Animal
. (Not like I went out on a limb or anything)
And yeah, I posted Jajuan's video in here earlier. Dude is a big FSU fan. We were his 1st major offer I believe
Dude is a monster. Idk how true it is (and I haven't heard it verified by anyone legit) but I read where somebody said that he tried to commit on his visit, but was denied. I don't think it's true though.
If true then
'Cause we ain't getting Andre Davis or Kelvin Benjamin.

I believe Hart went and visited AU. He supposed to be coming to our spring game and he was/is best friends w/ Ricardo so hopefully Ricardo can persuade him to pull the trigger for us. Ricardo might be our best recruiter.Originally Posted by dreClark

Alabama will be looking for all the help it can get in the secondary this fall, and one of the players the Crimson Tide were hoping could help won't be able to.
Junior college signee DeQuan Menzie ruptured his Achilles tendon while playing pickup basketball earlier this week and expects to redshirt during the 2010 season. He underwent surgery Thursday, and his recovery could take up to six months.
Having lost so many players in the secondary, Alabama signed Menzie with the thought he would be able to come in and play right away.
But with Menzie sidelined and junior safety Robby Green's eligibility for the upcoming season in question, Alabama's secondary for the 2010 season will easily be the most unproven unit on the team.
The stalwart back there is junior Mark Barron, who returns as one of the best safeties in the SEC. But after him, it gets dicey.
Right now, sophomores Dre Kirkpatrick and B.J. Scott are working with the first team at cornerback, although true freshmen DeMarcus Milliner and John Fulton are both extremely gifted. Kirkpatrick is pretty well entrenched. He's probably the next star cornerback for the Crimson Tide with his mix of speed, instincts and confidence.
Given Nick Saban's track record, it's unlikely that he's going to throw a true freshman out there at cornerback, particularly early, which makes the addition of LSU transfer Phelon Jones all the more important.
Jones is also working in the cornerback rotation and is a candidate for the Crimson Tide's all-important "star" position in the nickel package. It's the same position Javier Arenas played in the nickel last season.
Sophomore Robert Lester is working as the other starting safety opposite Barron.
Saban said this week that he likes what he sees from a talent standpoint in the secondary, but he'd trade some of that talent for more experience.
"To me, you’re always better off when you have guys who have experience, because they will make less mistakes," Saban said. "Even if guys are talented and are going to be really good players, they usually end up costing you back there."
Case in point: Alabama's loss to eventual national champion LSU in 2007.
Arenas, an inexperienced sophomore at the time, was forced into action late in that game. Granted, he left Alabama as an All-American, but Saban said Arenas' inexperience that night was probably the difference in the game.
"He messed up in two-minute, didn’t cover the right guy, covered him wrong and made a couple of mental errors," Saban recalled. "He was a talented kid who was going to be a really good player, but he wasn’t ready to play and he hadn’t played.
"And when he got out there, he kind of froze up, and one mistake led to another. So to have that maturity about you is critical, and that has to develop with these guys."
Saban said he expects to have an answer on Green before the summer. At this point, Saban is planning on not having him.
"But it would be helpful if he was here," Saban said. "We just don't have enough guys who've played back there."
horrible

Horrible news about James. Both of these kids were heavily recruited by Cincy so and Massa was a one time commit. Feel horrible for the X family.

Extremely sad news. Not sure about the rail collapsing or what actually happened, but makes you think that something like that could have happened to any one of us while on Spring Break...

Why's it seem like this type of story is popping up significantly more often lately than it has in the past?
Prayers with the family for sure.
