Did anyone else find it ironic that Hicks took the number 6 at Arky? When I first saw that photo of the back of his jersey I thought it said Picks 6.

Classic.
I was going to photoshop that, then thought better .

Knowing the kind of team player Hicks is, I am sure he will do everything he can to help Starkel in his new role.

He already did by his play.

I am wondering why the fascination with Hicks and the Beloved Razorbacks? Both should be in our rear veiw mirror. Yet, this is the most active current thread on the entire site.

Why?

I wish Hicks well and hope he has a great carear and enjoys Fayetteville. His carear doesn't affect SMU or our team now.

I'm sure he will be proud of the Masters in Poultry Husbandry he will get from the Dept of Poultry Sciences. Housed in the famous John W. Tyson Building - The 112,000-square-foot John W. Tyson building is the home of the Center of Excellence for Poultry Science. The Center is the largest teaching and research facility on the University of Arkansas campus.

NIce the largest academic building is for chickens at U of A.

What did you think it would be for? Used-car sales?

PickSixHix could have stood around on the sidelines here in a half-full stadium or he can stand around the sideline in a great conference in mostly full large stadiums of rabid stadiums. Who knows he may come in as a relief pitcher every now and then. Like someone said...just glad him and Chad are gone from here. Chad will probably use Justin Stepp as his sacrificial lamb scapegoat and pretend things will change once Stepp is canned.

Because it's a lot of fun to bludgeon Stallion endlessly with the parade of crap he trots out dressed up in snide comments and dropping 47 first-person references in a 2 paragraph post.

Sonny hasn't made a lot of mistakes since taking the SMU job, but in hindsight he probably wishes he had not burned Brown's RS last year, or at least that he had played Brown more after he did play in that 5th game.

Stepp is a god there. Craddock will be the sacrifice.

Buechele coming here wasn’t a sure thing at the time. If that hadn’t happened and Brown was our starting QB this year, we’d all be glad that he had gotten some experience last season.

My 2 cents for whatever it’s worth, is that Brown will be redshirted this year (baring injury to Shane)

Yeah, Sonny has said that publicly.

We will probably see Brown the NCAA allowed 4 games and that is it. Fantastic for the program.

No kidding. We're 2-0.
Best of luck to Hicks, but Buechele is who has me fired up.
