Ok , if I read this the right way… He is waiting on us to see if we have enough defense scholarships, if we do were going to offer? If we don’t he is going to choose between Georgia and Tennessee :roll: So what is the deal here?? I don’t think the other D-Line we have sign can touch this kid …
The “claimed correspondence art class being the only hold-up” for SEC qualifying just rings hollow to me. If true, you think the recruit and the folks recruiting him to the SEC would have figured that out a long time ago and not have him suddenly realize something simple like that fell through the crack. There is a lot more reason than that for this staff and the other SEC staff to have backed away. With our numbers down due to the previous switch to the 3-4 and now back to the 4-3, we could use him, but it sounds like the earliest he might make it is sometime this summer which means he will be way behind helping next year.
At this point, it doesn’t sound like the numbers are going to be in Gooden’s favor based on the positions Chavis said were needed to be filled. Is that how you see it?
That’s what it looked like to me, as well. But, reading this kids Twitter he still thinks he is coming here, he’s recruiting Gerald, who talks about being at college with him. And I saw an OU media guy respond to a person talking about Gooden that he is an AR committ and would be surprised if he didn’t come to AR, even as a walk-on. By the way, Gooden retweeted it. Could he come as a blue/gray shirt?
The kid from Ala Decommited today so that would seem to open up a slot if indeed this staff wan ted Gooden. It was reported that Chevis gave Gooden a call last week so sounds as if he was at ieast interested. I love kids who want to play for Ark with all their hearts. Especially when they are aq four star at a need position !
Gooden just got offered by Florida now moments like these are the reason why it’s hard to be an arkansas razorback fan… Florida who has achieved far more than we ever have in football and has a more established program, just like Oklahoma who signed Tre Norwood, offers a player who wants to come here but we think we are to good for smh Arkansas, trying to stay positive but we suck when we do stuff like this… Darren Mcfadden for coach lol
