What could have been.
It will be an unavoidable question no matter the scenario when Arkansas enters Oxford on September 13 for its third game of the 2025 season. If the Arkansas football team looked like gangbusters in its first two outings, folks will wonder how much better they could be if it still had the ones who got away: Luke Hasz, Patrick Kutas and Jaylen Braxton.
Lord help Sam Pittman, though, if his squad had somehow lost to Arkansas State the previous weekend. If that happens, a talent deficit will almost certainly be blamed – and nothing better encapsulates that loss this past offseason than Hasz, Kutas and Braxton fleeing to Ole Miss.
