    29yr old WR

    Sam Pittman and Arkansas have reportedly signed a former MLB player who is nearly a decade out of high school

    Harrison was a four-star receiver coming out of high school with a number of SEC, Big 12, and Big Ten offers.

    DOUG SAMUELS        MAY 7, 2024

    Coming out of Lee's Summit West high school in Missouri, Monte Harrison was a four-star receiver who gave a verbal commitment to Nebraska. 

    He also held offers from, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan State, Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Wisconsin and Arkansas at the time.

    I note "at the time" because Harrison has spent nearly the last decade playing professional baseball, last suiting up for the LA Angels in 2022 as an outfielder after being a second round pick of the Brewers - who paid him $1.8 million. 

    While he logged over 860 professional baseball games, about 50 of those were a part of the MLB ranks in three stints where he hit .176 with two home runs, 6 RBIs and 7 stolen bases where he didn't have the success most had hoped for.

    He will turn 29 in August, last played football in 2014, and. is preparing a comeback to football.

    According to multiple reports, Harrison just committed to play for Sam Pittman and the Razorbacks.  He seems to bring some bonafide speed to the receivers room, as he stole 210 stolen bases on 249 attempts in the minor leagues. 

    In his final year of high school he racked up over 1,200 yards and 25 touchdowns as one of the top prospects in The Show Me State.

    Now he will try his hand at the rare feat of going from professional ranks back to college in another sport, something similar to former NBA star JR Smith recently did going from the hardwood to trying his hand at college golf.  

    His second-shot will not only be an interesting story to watch during camp into the early part of the season, but with NIL now a major factor it adds an interesting additional angle to already intriguing story.

     

    I would have liked to return to school and bang coeds when I was 30.

    I have figured out the solution to all of the world's problems. @TKthunder2 will go on radio, television, and the internet and explain female fertility to all listeners. Yes, a man will explain the female reproductive system to everyone, including women. Anyone see any problems with this?

    Japan agrees with you.

    Great deep dive on the performance of the F-15E agains the Iranian missiles and drones— and what that means for the F-15EX program.  The much discussed proposed sale of several billion dollars in jets and munitions has a big chunk dedicated to F-15EX and air to air capabilities.

     A look at the development chain and clients shows that this is a response to Iran.

    A woman accused of posing as an Uber driver and robbing men in downtown Austin used stolen credit cards to make over $33,000 worth of fraudulent purchases, according to court documents.

    An arrest affidavit said 41-year-old Destini Cionne Robinson is a suspect in at least two incidents that took place in Austin’s entertainment district.

    I spent a few years in Florida and a lotta time at the beach.  Never saw a bear there but these were crowded beaches.  But I’m picturing a Florida Bear racing down New Smyrna sand in his lifted truck and getting out with a sixer of keystone light to smash ass and get gash
