The Ticker

On Sunday, Houston Nutt named Mitch Mustain the starting Quarterback for the Utah State Game and moved previous starter Robert Johnson to WR. It looks like the Mustain era at Arkansas has arrived.

Today, Weston Dacus, who backed up all three linebacker positions during the USC game, was named the starter at Middle Linebacker for the Utah State game, replacing Desmond Sims. Linebacker is not a very deep position however, and both will play significant minutes against the Aggies.

Did Houston Nutt make the right decision when he elected to name Mitch Mustain the starting Quarterback and move Robert Johnson to Wide Reciever?

Razorbacks release depth chart for USC Game

Olajubutu placed on the Butkis Watch List

A number of injured Hogs returned to practice today, including Pre-Season All American Darren McFadden. McFadden practiced on a very limited basis but was in full pads. Freshman WR, London Crawford and Soph. QB Casey Dick both practiced without soreness. Jr. LB Weston Dacus also returned to provide some much needed depth for the thin linebacking corps.

Ryan Hale

Ryan Hale has played for the Arkansas Razorbacks and the New York Giants in the NFL, and we are glad to have him here tonight on the RazorbackCast. We are going to ask him a few questions and then he is going to help us break down this weeks match-up with #6 USC Trojans. WELCOME RYAN HALE!

USC V Arkansas Break-down

Offense*
The USC offense has the unenviable task of replacing not one but two Heismann trophy winners on offense, not to mention their number two tailback LenDale White who would have been a Senior this year.

The Ticker

Hogwired.com is reporting that Sophomore Running Back, Darren McFadden, took another step towards the practice field Monday morning when surgeons in Fayetteville removed the pin from his big toe. McFadden suffered an open dislocation in a bar parking lot fight late last month. Arkansas head trainer Dean Weber said that McFadden is already wearing street shoes with a small steel insert. Weber also said the plan for McFadden is to first get him walking without pain, then jogging, then running, and then making quick cuts. Once McFadden has achieved that he will be cleared to practice with his teammates. It is still unlikely that McFadden will be ready for the opener against USC on September 2nd.

Injury report: Anthony Brown, Ryan Powers and Weston Dacus returned to practice this week after sitting out most of this fall with injuries.

London Crawford however, missed today's practice to get an MRI on his knee. The injury has kept him out of all but a couple of the pre-season practices so far.

Freshman, Ben Cleveland has been moved to WR from TE. This way he doesn't have to learn all the complicated blocking assignments that are required of a TE. Walk-on TE Andrew Davie has played well in the preseason giving the depth necessary at TE to allow Cleveland's move.

ESPN's Football Draft Analyst Mel Kiper has selected three Razorbacks as top picks in the 2008 NFL Draft. Each year at this time Mel takes a close look at the Junior class to see who will be future first and second round draft picks. Peyton Hillis was ranked the #1 FB, Marcus Monk was ranked the #4 WR, and Marcus Harrison was ranked the # DT out all Juniors in the nation.

Hog pitchers Nick Schmidt and Shaun Seibert looked good this summer. Schmidt went 3 - 1 including the final victory for team USA in the World Baseball Championships. He boasted an ERA of under 2. Shaun Seibert also pitched well this summer in the Cape Cod league, one of the top summer baseball leagues for collegiate players. Seibert was named the league's top pitcher. So congratulations to Shaun and Nick!!

Question of the Week

Is Saturday's practice debacle a good thing for the Razorbacks, in the long run, or is it an indication that we may have too high expectations.

Question of the Week

The Ticker

USC's starting fullback, Brandon Hancock, is out for the season with torn knee ligaments, however, All-American WR Dewayne Jarrett was cleared to play by the NCAA.

Razorback's Cedric Logan, a junior WR from Fayetteville, and Marc Winston, a redshirt Soph. from Little Rock have decided to transfer after finding out earlier in the week that they would be practicing with the scout team offense.

Projected starter at QB, Casey Dick, returned to practice on Monday evening after missing the last week of practice. However, he only made it through half the practice before his back tightened up again preventing him from finishing the night.

Redshirt Freshman running back, Michael Smith, also sidelined for the past week, returned to practice Monday.

Senior Defensive End, Anthony Brown, suffered a knee injury but an MRI revealed nothing serious and he will likely be available for the season opener with USC.

True Freshmen linebackers Chip Gregory and Ryan Powers are both suffering from injuries, prompting Sophomore safety Desmond Williams' being moved to strongside LB.

Although we reported it last week, it is now official that Mike Nail will be the interim Voice of the Razorbacks.

Fall Practice Assessment

The offense is looking good as are the freshmen wide recievers. Casey Dick appears to be 100% healthy. Junior College transfer DE Chris Wade is now eligible and will play this fall.
Injuries: OL Tyler Morgan, FB Kyle Payne are no longer active players but will remain on scholarship but not count against the 85 scholarship limit and freshman WR Marques Wade is slowed by a toe injury. Darius Vinnett is healthy and figures to be the extra DB on passing downs. Academic issues will prevent Texarkana DL Freddie Barnett from being a Razorback.

LSU

RG Robert Felton, C Jonathan Luigs and Tubbs are all picked to one of Athlon's Preseason All Conference teams. Tony Ugoh and Stephen Parker are both seniors and may actually be better. The depth on the line is also good, with JR. Nate Garner, SR. Chase Pressley and SR. Jeremy Harrell and Sophomore Jose Valdez all getting valuable playing time last year. The OL helped the Hogs lead the SEC in Rushing again last year. They will have to improve their pass blocking in Malzahn's new offense. Outro

The Football Hogs added another verbal committment for the 2007 recruiting class. Shiloh Christian Wide Reciever, Crosby Tuck became the 7th committment for the Hogs.

3 Football Hogs named Rivals.com pre-season All Americans.

Breaking News
Hoops Hogs may get big committment for upcoming recruiting season. Kodi Augustus, a 6' 9 combo forward from Louisianna will make his announcement Friday afternoon and is rumored to be planning to pick the Hogs over Texas, Florida, LSU and Texas A & M. Augustus is formerly of Louisianna and is the cousin of ex-LSU women's star Simone Augustus. Last year at Willowridge High School in Houston Texas he averaged 18 points, 10 rbs, 5 steals and 4 blocks per game. He plans to attend prep-school this fall.

Pre-Season SEC Football Preview

S. Carolina

Jr. QB Blake Mitchell will be one of the top passing QBs in the conference. Last year he threw for 2,370 yards, 17 TDs and 12 INTs. He will be throwing to the top returning WR in the conference, Sindney Rice who caught 70 balls for 1,143 yards and 13 TDs in his freshman season.

Tyrone Nix, former Defensive Coordinator at S. Miss takes over that position at S. Carolina after sharing the title with John Thompson last year. Thompson has left the staff.

TB Corey Boyd who was suspended all of last year returns. He was the teams 2nd leading rusher and reciever in 2004 and is a big play threat.

2006 Football Hogs' Position by Position Preview- Linebackers

Rated 5th best group of LBs in SEC by Athlons; SLB Freddie Fairchild (SO.), MLB Desmond Sims (Sr.), WLB Sam Olajubutu (Sr.). Olajubutu is an All-American candidate and was All Conference last year. He lead the team and was 3rd in the SEC in tackles. Fairchild has All-Conference potential. Sims was a starter at DE last year. Weston Dacus is the only experienced backup on the team. One or more incoming freshman will see lots of playing time. Wendel Davis and Van Stumon seem the most likely to provide depth but Adrian Davis, Chip Gregory, and Ryan Powers (who may take a shot at TB first) all will get a look. Former Arkansas High School Defensive Player of the Year and LSU transfer, Matt Stoltz could see more playing time this year.
