FAYETTEVILLE -- Three former Arkansas Razorbacks quarterbacks who catapulted from obscurity to fifth-year senior stardom and eventual UA Sports Hall of Honor inductions wish they'd had Brandon Allen's experience entering their fifth years.
On the other hand, nowadays Allen as well as most of today's college quarterbacks are abused on social media, message boards and sports talk radio.
"I can't imagine" were the unanimously prefaced sentiment expressed by Freddie Marshall, Frank Broyles' national championship quarterback in 1964, Scott Bull, the quarterback on Broyles' final Southwest Conference/Cotton Bowl championship team of 1975, and Kevin Scanlon, the quarterback for Lou Holtz's lone SWC championship in 1979.
