Arkansas may not be having the most successful season, but one ESPN analyst believes good things are on the way for the Razorbacks.
Dave Pasch, who served as a commentator for ESPN’s broadcast of Saturday’s Arkansas-Alabama game, praised Morris during an appearance on “Sports Talk with Bo Mattingly” on Monday.
“I think Chad Morris is the right guy for the job, and I think he’ll do an excellent job in recruiting. It’s just a total shift from what Arkansas was doing previously,” Pasch told Mattingly. “I think Arkansas is in good hands. I really do.”
However, the success may not come right away for the Razorbacks. Although Pasch isn’t completely ruling that out.
“I still think Arkansas can win a couple of SEC games,” Pasch told Mattingly. “In that league, things change so quickly. I don’t know if they’ll win more than one, but it’s possible.”
Arkansas fell to 1-5 with a 65-31 loss to Alabama on Saturday. The Razorbacks’ lone win was a 55-20 victory over Eastern Illinois in their season opener.
This Saturday, Arkansas will look for its first conference win when it plays Ole Miss at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock.
