I'm personally not ok with it,. I'm expecting 8 or more wins.


I'm not good with it either considering Fat asses record here at the U of A. Obviously Jeff is good with it.

I don't expect 10-11 wins a year, but I expect a better product on the field than what I witnessed yesterday.

What I saw was Fat and lazy, a fat arse trend in year 5

That's all anyone can do. It's a long season.

Bert now has an under .500 W/L record and will possibly be going into year 6 with a losing record overall and in the SEC

You know the thing with Petrino was that we didn't chalk any games up as losses in the preseason. We thought we had a chance to win it all the last couple of years he was here. We just don't have that with Big Bertha

OK, ive had enough of the fat jokes. I am fat.. I have my feelings hurt and am needing a snowflake moment.

So, be a little more PC and lay off of us obese challenged folks...

UmmmmK... Ty

I've been thinking things over and while Bert can just disappear as far as I'm concerned, I'm way more pissed at Long for saddling us with him for so long. So, Jeff Long, that scrawny, skinny turd is enemy #1. Better?

I've never been apart of the fire Jeff long crowd. Simply because I would see them use carpetbagger and other silly terms that made it hard to take him seriously. I attributed part of it for being the guy after broyles as well.

I 100% will not be sad if he gets fired over this buyout fiasco. Literally fricked us for years.

Same here, I've been alright with him overall but that buyout is just unforgivable.

If we go undefeated in conference games this year, Bert would still be 4 games under .500 in SEC play heading into 2018.

Think about that for a second.

I'll never give up on this or any other Arkansas team....too much Razorback in me.

I have 80% given up on Fat arse though. I was willing to give him time to get us competitive week in and week out in the SEC. I see no overall improvement in his teams since late in year 2.

Special Teams suck and we have too many Freshmen being asked to contribute yet only have 14 scholarships to give this recruiting cycle.

I stayed behind Nutt and his Circus way too long. I won't make that mistake again.

It's not even lack of improvement. It's regression. We aren't even as good as we were two years ago and the roster wasn't even totally his at that point. We're going the wrong way.

How many wins satisfies the masses tho?


Probably 8 keeps everyone from freaking out but even then next year will get rough with another slow start.

We are positive. We are positive we are tired of the things that were going wrong in year two or three still being the things going wrong in year 5.

I like Bert, I want Bert to do well here. But I have to see something this year that makes me want to stick with him.

These are my sentiments as well, or at least until I see how we prep and play TAMU. The TCU game was inexcusable on so many levels, but I'll give he and AA a chance to right the ship over these 2 weeks and see what happens.

STILL not in the fire Jeff Long crowd, the only "mistake" he's made was locking us into Bert for so long and at the time we looked to be headed in the right direction and needed that long term stability on paper. There was actual respect for CBB in the coaching world and we were trying to prevent him from being poached, so I'll forgive the short-sightedness for now.
