Arkansas has win-win option available provided current Hogs quarterback has interest in NFL
makes him the man for the job when the Razorbacks take on Missouri in the frigid, snowy confines of Farout Field Saturday afternoon.
Meanwhile, Singleton may not have the experience of Green, but he is quick to his target with a smooth, catchable ball, usually makes the read, works his way up into the pocket, and is consistent with his play once he settles into the game. He led the game-winning drive against No. 4 Tennessee with relative ease and made a powerful Ole Miss defense that had shut Arkansas down for just over a half look like the junior varsity team.
With great improvement, Green's ceiling is to reach a level where former Arkansas quarterback Matt Jones played his entire career. Still, when it came to the NFL, that wasn't enough to get a sniff at quarterback. Not many people have caught more passes than Green in his lifetime by virtue of constantly having balls thrown to him in practice drills and warm-ups, so it's not like he'd be asked to do something unnatural. He also has the advantage of knowing every route every receiver runs on a given play and exactly what the quarterback is looking for on each.
Plus, there aren't many quarterbacks who can deliver a ball so well for a developing receiver as Singleton. Beyond being thrown with precision, it almost appears to slow at the last second and gently lower itself into receivers' hands, which is a huge advantage for Green if he wants to catch the eye of NFL scouts.
Having a pair of leaders on the field and in the locker room goes a long way toward thwarting a lot of the issues that held back some of his previous teams. Arkansas is going to need an elite receiver, so there's no better solution than shopping on the Hogs' roster to find one with more potential upside than what's probably available in a couple of weeks without giving up a transfer spot that could be used to shore up the offensive and defensive lines.
