Dawg365,
I seriously DOUBT Coach Pittman is a [me, me, me, me, me, me.... guy] at all!
I wish him well an hope he's happy an enjoys some solid success. Yes, I feel he's gonna turn that program around and have em in a bowl in a couple years tops.
My concern is goin forward, does CKS make major changes too the offense? If so, where does that leave the guys Pitt has brought in the last couple years? If the offense becomes more balanced or even leans on the pass more. Do we have the right type of players on the O-line?
Just because a guy is a roadgrader, doesn't mean he can pass block or vice versa. Not to mention if CKS makes significant changes in the offense, does this cause Kendall Milton too rethink his choice of school? Hopefully not. Dawgs rule!!

Nooooooooo!
Say it ain't so, Sam.
So keeping Coley and losing Pittman. The Georgia way. What a freaking joke
No no no no no!!! That is a huge blow for our program and I'd expect Arkansas to start building some big OLs.
I mean, I'm glad it's not Mizz as they'd become dangerous in the East, but crap, that hurts.
Not many O line coaches of Pittmans quality around. He will be hard to replace.
Losing Sam is 100 times worse than losing the game Saturday. Arkansas will still never win big in the SEC west, but UGA lost big by losing Sam.
Pittman is a great recruiter, he brought in the cream of the crop. For some reason they didn't perform like the cream of the crop this year, why was that? I wish Pittman the best but I seriously have to question whether he has the planning and organizational skills required to put together and hold together a program in the condition that the Arkansas program is in right now. Not many quality coaches were lined up at the door for this job.
His loss will probably impact the current incoming class of OL recruits some but we have the depth to sustain for at least next year. Long term it will depend on who KS and UGA can attract. Maybe look toward the NFL for someone who can help build on a tradition Pittman started.
Bummer!!! Sam is probably the best recruiter we’ve had in decades, but I think he was
a mediocre OL coach who was loved by his players. Popular guy with a great personality.
We have an OL comprised of “Top 5” HS players at every position and everyone of those players
was a high ranked 4 or 5 star. No team had better talent yet we couldn’t open holes for our great
running backs. I’ll miss Sam, his humor and incredible recruiting, but I won’t miss his on field coaching.
