Did it work out? Hell no. But if the Hogs would have turned it around at that point, then everyone would be singing Wilson's praises for stepping up and demonstrating leadership. Sadly, we sucked much harder than anyone anticipated, so his "calling out" looks ineffectual at best and petulant at worst.

This.
Arkansas had no coach or leader on the team but him. It had to be done. You can bet like hell that a coach like Nick Saban, Les Miles or even the guy they just hired would have been screaming at them if they were in that locker room after that shit show.
