That they have these caliber recruits on the bench and not even in their 2-deep, and there were more but this makes the point, is unprecedented in their programs history. You have never faced an A-State team with this much talent and depth....not even close.
Not that you cannot beat them, you certainly can, so enjoy the game, the challenge, and appreciate the talent that both teams bring to the field in this game. The whole state needs to know how talented both teams are.
Edited note: Butch Jones has forbade anyone associate with their program, coaches, players-although the media has been trying to trick them into reveling it, whoever from discussing their depth chart. Has asked fans that support the program at a level that allows them to watch their scrimmage-they run the media off, not to discuss it either, but did not say they could not discus who was not on the 2-deep.
