FAYETTEVILLE -- Some college football coaches seem to thrive upon quarterback controversies.
They especially are apt to foment them in the spring. Competition is good for the quarterbacks and good for the team, they say.
No one disagrees competition is good. But others prefer the team, fans, media and even the disinterested know there is one quarterback absolutely in charge.
Arkansas Coach Bret Bielema seems firmly in the "I want my guy in charge" camp. He just proved it again.
With today's scrimmage, three spring practices and the April 23 Red-White game remaining, Bielema took to Twitter on Thursday night proclaiming fourth-year junior Austin Allen the Razorbacks' starting quarterback.
