it's a vicious reality bitch slap every freaking year.

the time of year where on field results mean jack shite to top recruits deciding between us, lsu and ole piss

guess we just gotta keep chipping away and slowly building our prestige to the point to where we can consistently pull in top 5 - top 10 classes every year

I think players should legit be paid

but as the system is now, yea players and their handlers that want paid are shady. personally I prefer players that want to do it the right way.

Even when Arkansas was a perennial top ten team, they weren't bringing in top 10 classes. Solid classes with with blue chips sprinkled in them.

The difference was these coaches were bringing in elite coaching talent, then replacing them when they moved up the ranks elsewhere.

You had guys like Pete Carroll coming here to be a GA.

That all stopped under Hatfield.

yea if only on field results mattered toledo would be out recruiting us. They had a better record and more wins than us.

But more than who wins and loses on the field come into play.

OM has been "out recruiting" Arkansas since Orgeron was there.

On field results tell an entirely different story.

I was talking about when Arkansas was doing just that, winning natty's and conference titles.

Even then Arkansas was third best in the Texas recruiting order behind Texas and OU and none existent in LA outside of Joe.

How long has it been since we had a season with less than 3 losses?

5 years ago.

We've had 3 seasons equal or better than OM's best ever in the past decade.

Oh and the best on field result in the past decade was immediately followed by the worst recruiting class signed in the same time period.

2nd best followed by 2nd worst.

3rd best followed by 3rd worst.

I gotcha

but there's so much different now compared to then it's hard to compare the two. I find it hard to believe if we won the SEC a few times and won a few natty's now we couldn't bring in top 5 classes consistently.

You're probably full of shite, but I don't think posting your involvement in these things or what you know about it on a public forum is a very good idea. Mods?

Nobody coming to the Hill right now is being paid. They are told hell no if they ask for payment. I won't do it out in the open on this board , but I can tell you every last detail of K.J. Hill and Malik Monk's reasons for not being here. I know what happened straight from the horses mouth.
