The crazy thing is that you’re not even trolling. You can legitimately make that argument about them.

I’m still baffled at how bad they’ve been in basketball since joining the conference. Especially while everyone else upgrades at HC. They’ve had maybe the two worst coaches in the conference since they’ve joined.

Who's we? You talking about the nubs here on the Rant or the power brokers who make these decisions?

Unlike your team, they have played in 2 SEC title games.

There is no doubt they have the worst athletic department in the SEC and it’s not really close. Atleast Vandy has baseball.

Mizzou possibly has the worst athletic department at the P5 level

Oh look, an original thread!



Side note. We've won our division multiple times. We did that in a space of inside 10 years of joining.

What has Arkansas done since they joined?

Money. KC and St. Louis markets. Academics.

I like Mizzou. It is someone we can beat in football.

THEY DID PLAY THEIR BOWL GAME.

Slive was drunk. Apparently brought a Texas team in as well but they never show up.

Some accounts blame Bernie Machen (then president of UF as well as the SEC board president) for pulling a lot of strings to make it happen. SEC wanted Texas A&M and there was a discussion about who else to take. I now have forgotten what other schools were in consideration, but I think it was West Virginia, Virginia Tech(?) and a couple more. Machen grew up in St. Louis and apparently was the driving force for making the 14th team Missouri.

Sorry.

Mizzou also owns a 7-1 football advantage over Ole Miss

Just sayin…

I kinda like our little battle of the Columbia's ... they've made the conference championship more than the cult in college station has.
