Mitch Mustain Follow-Up

Apparently (according to KATV, Little Rock) Mitch Mustain has re-enrolled in classes at Arkansas.

I guess Mr. Greatest Thing Since Slice Bread decided that if his options were Tulsa, Texas Tech and UTEP, that maybe he'd just hang loose in Fayetteville for a while. Since Notre Dame, Louisville and the others told him thanks for asking - don't call us, we'll call you.

See, Mitch, having your momma go meet with AD's is something that follows you around. Hard to get other coaches at big-time programs to be interested when there's a history of meddling parents who think that one mediocre freshman quarterback is bigger than the entire program.

As Obi-Wan told Anakin in Attack of the Clones: "You will learn your place, young one." You may be a great Quarterback someday - with some coaching and some listening to coaching on your part. But you need to quit believing your own hype. You need some work, dude. If you were smart - and your former HS Coach - you would have just shut up, rolled with it, and let Darren McFadden carry the load next season while you work on your mechanics and your accuracy...and your decision making. This situation is similar to the Chargers. River let LT do the brunt of the work while he learned the ropes and got his feet wet. You have the perfect chance to do that at Arkansas. D-Mac leaves after this year - the team could be yours the next.

If you truly turn out to be as good as you were supposed to be, Nutt would be a fool to not put the team on your shoulders after D-Mac leaves. Just like he would have been a fool to not put the team on D-Mac's shoulders this year.

Honestly, I was a Hog fan long before I ever heard your name...and I'll be one long after you're gone. Stay or go - it's of little consequence to me. But if you stay, you need to smarten up and quit acting like a spoiled 10-year-old saying, "screw this, I'm taking my ball and going home."
