ESPN's Skip Bayless Rips Porter Davis, Again
By DeAndrew Davis

"I'm looking forward to seeing Arkansas head coach Porter Davis finally be exposed!" Skip Bayless shouted on ESPN yesterday.

He continued: "Davis was terrible as the defensive coordinator at Eastern Michigan. He fell *** backward into the Louisiana DC job then he inherited the best team in a bad conference and lucked his way into a job as a head coach in the SEC!"

Stephen A. Smith made a face like he may have smelled something putrid but was unable to get a word in edgewise.

Bayless attacked Davis a few years back, saying then that Louisiana was overrated in the polls and should have been lower than, ironically, a 6-4 Arkansas team at the time.

At the time Davis retorted that Bayless should “stick to basketball since he was so good at that.” Mocking the "analysts" failed career.

When I texted Davis for a comment he only sent back a clown emoji.

Later he elaborated: "Skip's job is to be entertaining, he gets paid the same regardless of accuracy. He's a "hot take" guy."

Maya Collins tweeted suggesting that Skip may be lacking in a certain part of his anatomy that I can't reprint here.

Arkansas opens their season this Saturday at 3:30pm at Colorado State.

Outlook: Arkansas looks to have the advantage on paper but they are on the road and it's their first game with a new coaching staff. I think we get the win but it could be ugly.

Playing around with some recruiting "guidelines". Here's what I have so far:

Can only recruit pipeline players that start with me in their top 5. (Once we've done something I can branch out and "chase" players.)

Can only over sign by 3 players the first few years. (If I have 18 seniors I can only sign 21 players, after the first few years I can't over sign at all.)

I can't add any players to my board after recruiting starts unless my board drops below the number of players I can sign. (Set my initial targets and run with them, no adding lightly recruited players late.)

All top five interested players from Arkansas must be targeted until my roster has at least 25 players from Arkansas. Once I'm at or over 25 I need to maintain that number and don't have to target all interested Arkansas players.

Once I fall behind by 1,000 I have to remove the player from my board. Once we've done something I can choose whether or not to continue chasing these players.

In order to hopefully get some more injuries I used random.org to generate a list of 10 numbers between 1-70. Sorting by overall rating I counted from the top and edited the injury rating down 10 points on the 10 players those numbers represent.

You requested 1 set with 10 unique random integers, taken from the [1,70] range. The integers were sorted in ascending order.

Here is your set:

Set 1: 9, 27, 31, 49, 55, 60, 62, 63, 64, 67

Should add those recruiting rules to the first page if you can bruv

20 - 00


BRIAN BROWNE LOOKS IN THE OPENING KICK OFF OF THE 2018 ARKANSAS FOOTBALL SEASON

Arkansas leaned on a stout running game and a stingy defense to handle Colorado State with a 20-0 win in Fort Collins for Porter Davis’ coaching debut.

Arkansas ran for 201 yards and scored two rushing touchdowns while holding Colorado State to just 143 total yards of offense and no points while picking off true freshman QB Johnnie Daniels twice.

The Razorbacks got 95 yards on the ground from top runningback Marques Long while QB D’Eriq Robinette and runningback Jaquez Powell added 50 and 52 yards respectively. Long and Robinette scored rushing touchdowns.

Robinette threw the ball just 13 times, completing ten for 91 yards with no turnovers. Brian Browne led the way with 36 yards on three receptions.

“We want to run the ball.” Porter Davis said after the win. “We did that today, protected the ball and played solid defense. That’s usually a win.”

Defensively the Razorbacks were led by safety Pernell Young’s five tackles while linebacker Derek Jones recorded four. Safety Joey Cabral and cornerback Bryon Davis each had interceptions.

Arkansas took a 7-0 lead on their second possession with Long running in on a read option from three yards out.

After Cabral’s late first quarter interception Robinette scored the second and final touchdown of the day on a 14 yard run that he capped with a dive at the right pylon.

Arkansas kicker Joey Christodoulou added a pair of fourth quarter field goals to make the final score 20-0 for Porter Davis’ Arkansas debut.

“It doesn’t seem special right now.” Davis answered when asked about the win. “Maybe someday it will but today it’s just a win that we worked hard for and expected and that’s enough.”
