SEC Football: Way-too-early 2019 superlatives
By Shelbie Warr
Arkansas Razorbacks: Most likely to have zero quarterback identity.
There are quarterback issues and then there is what is happening at Arkansas. It’s bad y’all. At this point, I am truly not sure what Chad Morris is going to do to try to put this team back together, or at least find some kind of structure that they didn’t have at all in 2018.
To put it mildly, this team struggled mightily this past season, barely making it to two wins and finishing at the bottom of the bottom of the SEC. This team was 0-8 in conference, even though they put up some big garbage time numbers as they were getting blown out week after week by teams they were sure they’d compete against with Chad Morris at the helm. Let us all remember when Arkansas lost to Colorado State and North Texas in back to back weeks after winning in Week 1.
Now, Arkansas has two quarterbacks in the transfer portal and it would seem that neither have their coach’s confidence in terms of coming back. Chad Morris is on the market for a quarterback now that Ty Storey and Cole Kelley have checked out of the program. They shoot for Kelly Bryant, but that failed and now they are fighting for a decent transfer before getting stuck with John Stephen Jones.
Simply put, the Razorbacks have zero quarterback identity or confidence heading into the offseason and I don’t see much getting better in the coming months before September rolls around again.
