We had to rebuild everything in our program...culture, academics, brand and product on the field. He's doing a good job IMO in all of these areas and improving win totals year after year. If we didn't play in the SEC West we may have seen quicker results and I don't believe he is in any jeopardy of losing his job any time soon. A few losing seasons in a row is the only way he gets canned.

I like the guy and I like his style of football

I'm happy so far.

I think if you dissect the losses there are 4-5 that easily could and probably should have been wins. Granted there is one win that could have been a loss...but since it was against Ole Miss...well..they are Ole Miss.

While the progress hasn't been sudden and dramatic, it does seem to be the type of progress that is sustainable and building. As Ole Miss implodes and LSU gets more of LESS I think that will help the hogs recruiting. There are serious connections being made into Looserana. There's a very real chance that Arkansas can emerge along with A&M as the next best choice behind Bama for recruits....and Nicky can't coach forever.

Another view is...what if he did leave...then what? You end up with some mickey mouse gimmicky coach coming out of a program like Arkansas State probably.
