The Red Wolves picked up a commitment from P Blaine Harpenau tonight.

The Oklahoma Rivals website has an article up today on the Red Wolves. It is a decent write up, but they are missing at least one key player in Corey Rucker.

Butch Jones is speaking about the OL at the Howl on Wheels stop in Little Rock. He mentioned that they have more size this year than they have had since he has been here. The OL will average 330-340 across the board.

Jones said they will have 11 DT’s on the roster and they plan on playing by committee this year.

Depth is improving on the DL, and one of the last championship winnings teams had a ton of depth on the DL.

Butch Jones has been speaking about RB’s in Little Rock saying that he spoke with a trainer in Florida that is working with Brian Snead.

He said the trainer told him Snead has been working out with Ezekiel Elliott and has been battling with him during the workouts.

The Howl on Wheels stop in Little Rock has a nice showing of Red Wolf fans in attendance. It’s always fun to come out to these things, and I’ll have some interviews up later with several coaches!

Bryan Hodgson's contract details with Arkansas State released. He will receive a base salary of $385,000 per year for 5 years.

Here are a few thoughts I have on what it will take for Bryan Hodgson to have success at Arkansas State.

Your next head coach of the Arkansas State Red Wolves basketball team Bryan Hodgson

If Arkansas State is going to enjoy football success in 2023 the home schedule is going to be a critical part of making sure that happens.

Several names are floating around with Arkansas State looking for a new basketball coach. Here are some I’m hearing:

Justin Gainey- Tennessee assistant

Joe Dooley - Former East Carolina head coach

James Miller - Mississippi State assistant

Ross Hodge - North Texas assistant

Brian Hodgson - Alabama assistant

Hodgson catches my eye because he is an Alabama assistant and we all know the ties to Alabama at Arkansas State now.

Hodge obviously has the ties to Grant McCasland, the last coach to have some real success here.

Miller is a solid assistant at Mississippi State and could recruit the area well.

Gainey is similar to Miller.

Dooley provides head coaching experience, and that could go a long ways for Arkansas State.

I’m out and about with family today but I’ll have more tonight!
