I still would like to know the status of the two top rated defensive backs recruited this year,David Gordon and Darius Winston. We really could use some help in the defensive backfield if these two guys are ready to compete.

Mallett can't scramble worth a lick. there were several plays where he could have easily picked up 10-15 yards or more when it became obvious passing wasn't going to be an option. He's a big guy and i'm sure not slow. why does he just take the sack or throw it away so quickly rather than trying to pick up a bit on busted pass plays?

The defense will be the difference between winning 5 to 8 games this year for both Arkansas and A&M. Joe Kines knows defense. So far.. after two Spring campaigns and both this year as well as last.. Willy Robinson doesn't seem to have a clue.

Why is it that two articles(one by Richard Davenport and another by Nate Allen) will not open when they are clicked on, a message showing page not found?
