razorbacker is more dialed in, I'll defer to him on this stuff. But I can't dig up anything but noise.
One thing certain is, BoT has a hardon for 'state connections'. Sure is limiting to the prospect pool. And it caused people like Holtz and Nolan Richardson to be treated like ****.
But I like Norvell and he has the connect. Memphis to Fayetteville is a move up for him.
Gus had too much baggage on the Hill imo. I was never excited about him. Other than the prospect he could lift us out of the cellar anyway. I'd take Saban himself, much as I dislike that ****, if that could happen.
Arkansas Rivals board has Leach as one of the top candidates on their hot board. They have not removed Norvell so maybe the info from Ole Miss is false. Gus, Chad Morris, Norvell, and MR LANE KIFFIN are the ones listed at the top of the list. Matt Campbell is also listed but his buyout is too much.
I'd have Jeff Brohm way up on the list. He did well at WKU and he had Purdue competitive this year. I think you get a lot of the upside of Petrino without the baggage.
