It was early on a fall fishing trip to the Norfork River that I asked Arkansas' hitting coach and lead recruiter about the prospects of the spring baseball season. If they are smart, coaches under promise and over deliver.
The good ones know what they say isn’t going to matter in the long run. Their team either will produce or they won’t and building up expectations within an already good program isn’t necessary.
So when my good fishing buddy told me that this was going to be a particularly good team my interest was piqued. Todd Butler rarely overhyped anything.
