Coach's Radio Show for 11/14/16

[1972Shocker]

You did very well '72' and I was there. I did ask HCGM about the recruitment of AR. How did we get in on him and why was there so little interest. His reply was that it was coach Linstead and AR was from NW Arkansas and not a lot of population.,,think Scott City if you will...and there were concerns about his injuries that kept others off recruiting him. Once again Shocks find a diamond in the rough.

Actually NW Arkansas has a decent size popuation (500,000+) thanks to Wal-Mart and the University of Arkansas. Austin hails from Newark (popuation of round 1,200) which is in the NE quadrant of the state. It is about 100 miles NE of Little Rock and 100 miles NW of Memphis.

But yes he does appear to be quite the find.

Every time I hear the announcer say, "Welcome back to the Coach's Show with Gregg Marshall and Mike Kennedy", it sure sounds like he's saying "Craig Marshall".

ARs injuries seem to be much more worrisome than I initially thought.

Maybe, maybe not -- coaches tend to be worrywarts when it comes to anything that can go wrong, and that's especially unsurprising for Marshall fresh off the situation with Shamet last year (not to mention FVV's season-killer hamstring).

Well those arms on AR look like tooth picks that will snap anytime.
