QB merry-go-round continues for Hogs; Miller to have surgery Friday

For fans expecting a change at quarterback for Arkansas this week, you’ll either get your wishes fulfilled … or go right back to the status quo.

Chad Morris ran in circles around the whole issue Monday.

“I don’t know that right now at this point,” he said. “All options are on the table and we would love to have an opportunity to get some more of our younger guys in at times.”

Which says exactly nothing, staying with the theme of the day for Morris in a press conference where he apparently didn’t make it clear about the status of injured defensive tackle Marcus Miller.

While Morris wasn’t completely clear, some took his statement about Miller’s ACL injury as he HAD surgery Friday. That surgery is scheduled for November 1, according to folks close to Miller.

Everybody pretty much missed it because everybody was focused on the quarterback situation.

And Morris didn’t particularly seem interested in making the picture clear.

“We’ll have a general idea of how we’re going to do the reps in practice, similar to kind of what we did a little bit last week,” Morris said.

Yes, that means Ben Hicks is at least having his name kept in the mix. Along with Nick Starkel, John Stephen Jones and K.J. Jefferson.

“He’ll get some reps in there as well,” Morris said about Hicks.
