Anybody else get the feeling Tyler Wilson gets picked by us today?

We all know Jerry's Arkansas ties. Not saying I would agree with the pick (as we have much more pressing needs), but I could easily see Jerry pull this trigger on his fellow Razorback. What would you guys think if we got him with one of our 3rds (hopefully not the 2nd)?

Jerry has drafted one Arkansas player in his 23 years here....Felix Jones.

It's a patently false statement that he loves Arkansas players.

No ...

 

[Chuck 54]

Absolutely NOT !

Don't get that vibe at all. More a vibe of Short at 47, Thomas FS at 74 and T. Williams at 80.

I'm not even sure where the "JJ always goes razorback" thing comes from. He's involved at the school, but a lot of billionaires give to their alma maters. That's hardly unique amongst owners, I'm sure. It's one of the more bizarre myths running around about this team.

This ^^^^^^

Nope not at all

Broaddus has been hinting at it all week. If it was one of the 3rd rounders I am sure spin would be fierce.

 

[DFWJC]

Not even remotely.

No, it never occurred to me. But neither did Frederick the Giant before yestiday. So anything (with Jerra) is possible.

jerry has drafted the grand total of one arkansas player. i think there was two others on our roster at one time. don't know where people get the thought that jerry drafts arkansas players at all.

Bayless acted like it was possible at 31. Haha. Imagine the reaction if it went down like that.

That is a amazing statistic. Jerra has hired one head coach from Arki. That one player is Felix, yes?

I cannot say that I do.

You would l think by now that the media narrative being wrong so often would deter people but I guess not.

The only time I have seen it pegged was with Carpenter.
