Feleipe Franks needed a change of scenery after a somewhat disappointing career with Florida and maybe Joe Milton needs the same after struggling under Jim Harbaugh at Michigan.

We saw how well Sam Pittman utilized a transfer quarterback last season and how the experience was enough to lead Arkansas to a decent season and the new coaching staff got the most out of the Florida transfer. Milton definitely needs a change of scenery and if he can improve his accuracy, he could be a really good addition for Arkansas.

Look, Milton was bad for the Wolverines, but everyone pretty much agreed that he had plenty of potential and never lived up to it in Ann Arbor. Sound familiar? Sounds just like Franks in Gainesville.

I would argue that Milton has more raw talent than Franks did and his arm has the potential to be really special in the right situation.

Arkansas could have a really good battle brewing between KJ Jefferson and Malik Hornsby but who wouldn’t want to add another talent to the mix, especially when that talent is 6-5, 234 pounds, and has a cannon for an arm.
