Has Arkansas been 'Gho$ted'?
Word has trickled out of Michigan that safety commit Myles Rowser isn't expected to sign with Arkansas today. However, despite numerous red flags popping up lately, it doesn't 100% rule out the Hogs.
Rowser, whose Twitter handle comes up as "gho$t," has done just that.
Roughly 48 hours before signing day, fans started posting tweets claiming Rowser had blocked them. Then, further investigation showed Rowser's Twitter account was gone altogether.
This is not a good sign for an Arkansas fan base that is known for its tremendous support on Twitter, but is also known as one of college football's most vicious when it feels slighted.
However, Rowser will have en extra week to think things over as it has been reported that snow storms have delayed his signing ceremony until next Wednesday.
Speculation started back in December when the Belleville, Michigan safety chose to be the only member of the recruiting class to not sign in the early signing period, but things were still relatively calm.
When smoke began to rise around cornerbacks coach Sam Carter, eventually leading to his departure to Ole Miss, very few people put together that Carter was Rowser's lead recruiter, which could impact his decision.

However, now that the Michigan Gho$t has gone invisible, the seriousness of the potential impact of Carter's departure on Rowser's impending arrival has settled in.
If the early signing period felt like Christmas, Hog fans will have to face that today is literally Groundhog's Day and they'll just have to wake up and live not know for sure whether Rowser will become a Hog on a Wednesday at least one more time.
Will Bellville Myles not see his shadow, giving Razorback fans four years of Hog Heaven, or will they have to deal with the icy chill of rejection?
We'll all see when Rowser climbs from emerges from his proverbial hole next Wednesday.
