Always fun to watch a LB crushing people. Kid seems legit. How long before the $ec schools are after him?

Looks like he committed to Missouri a couple of days ago.

Tough to get kids out of Missouri these days when Mizzou is going hard after them. I'm glad we're trying to build that recruiting pipeline, though. With likely trouble ahead for Arkansas and a questionable level of future success for Mizzou in the SEC, that could become a valuable state to recruit for a player or two a year.

The celebration for them being in the SEC will be short lived IMO.

You mean they won't be able to build off of Vandy being their only SEC win? Whaaa

I think Vandy could be pretty good in the coming years.

Perhaps. I'd certainly like to think so, but it's going to help their recruiting in the near future. And unfortunately, with Mizzou being in the SEC East and now Arkansas seeming to be in a downward spiral, they may have a chance to at least keep their heads above water (instead of getting overwhelmed and winning 4 or 5 games a year, they will have an opportunity to at least become bowl eligible most years).
