2. Arkansas needs Kelly Bryant at quarterback

The Razorbacks, despite being a big-time underdog, played LSU relatively well and kept the Tigers on their heels until the clock hits zero. That kind of fight is taught, it is learned.

It is clear that Chad Morris has taken this Razorback team and has started the rebuild with players that he may not have chosen to recruit if he had been at the helm of the program at that point.

However, with a young team upcoming as many upperclassmen graduate, the Hogs could easily struggle again in 2019. That is why they need a veteran quarterback, an experienced quarterback. They need Kelly Bryant.

It is amazing what a graduate transfer can do for a team, especially a young group. Kelly Bryant spent time at Clemson — a program that has shown its prestige as of late.

If Morris can get Bryant on the Razorback hype train, this could be a big-time team in the SEC in 2019.
