99% of ark fans are pathetic in case you weren't paying attention.

All they've done the past few weeks is bided their time until one of the SEC teams in the tourney loses and sometimes they don't even wait for it to become official (the premature trolling of UK that ended with "but, but, I didn't predict them losing or say they lost... honest you got me all wrong, I swear..."). For a group that claims to be basketball fans and is obviously smarting from not getting in the tourney they don't seem to understand that SEC teams doing well in the tourney not only doesn't hurt them but is actually good for the basketball team.

In fact, if Arky makes the tourney next year they'll have UT, UF, and UK to thank for it. Our collective showing 3 teams to the Sweet Sixteen. two in the final four, and now 1 in the final game has made a statement to the selection committee and everyone else about SEC basketball and a strong argument for us getting more teams in next year. But do the arkies get this? Nope. Do they understand that playing 3 tourney teams helps their RPI for next year? Nope. About all they understand is how to troll poorly.

Arky didn't make the cut and instead of thinking about why and how that happens they're literally biting the very hands that feed those RPIs and gives the committee reason to treat us better and give us more teams in the tourney next year.
