I think they are both really, really good jobs, but considering the success Tennessee has had with Pearl the past 5 years I have to give them the slight edge.

Trying to pick a fight?

Of course I'll say Arkansas because of a much, much, richer basketball tradition. But who knows. UT will probably shell out more money.

Highly debatable answer IMO

But it seems to me if you argue UT basketball > Arky basketaball... you should also argue Arky football > UT football

That is, if present success trumps historical success?

Arkansas by far.

Tennessee's program is really only Bruce Pearl. And he is gone now.

Maybe I am discounting Wade Houston's contributions, but Arkansas has a better basketball program.

Tennessee will always play "2nd fiddle" to Kentucky in the East and in the foreseeable future, Florida as well. Arkansas can and should be the premier SEC West Basketball program. Therefore, the nod has to go to the Hogs.

The NCAA mess at UT would have to mitigate that success over the last five years.

I'd say Arkie.

It depends on the coach and what they're looking for in regard to the job. Both schools have a lot to offer and both have significant differences.

ETA: IMO, Arkansas is the much better overall program.
