JONESBORO -- With Arkansas State halfway through its 2022 season, safety Justin Parks was asked how he thought the Red Wolves have fared relative to his preseason expectations.
"We didn't put in all of that hard work just to win two out of the six games we've played," Parks said.
It's not that cut and dried.
Two of those four losses came against a pair of top-25 teams. In its other two defeats, ASU (2-4, 1-2 Sun Belt) had second-half leads but was unable to close games out.
But, in many more words, second-year head coach Butch Jones agreed with Parks' sentiment.
