Nice to see Gearhardt stepping up in the crunch.

Well I can tell you the exact timeline of this

Take the timestamp from Long's tweets, subtract 10 minutes. That's when he signed the offer letter

Oh RT. They can't believe that people think Long is a good AD.

Those people are getting as bad as Hogville. Hard to read.

Recruiting board is awesome though. Ernie, that taylor dude, Dalt, Gillhog, and a few others do a great job of giving info.

I'm pretty sure one of them post here all the time.

Oh, we absolutely got worked but that's the way the game is played. Long's worth every penny.

This has the added benefit of pissing off the Longhaters.

Me too, and frankly we've been season ticket holders since before I got out of school and I'm not inclined to renew after a 3-9 season with very little hope that 2014 will be better.

The other factor is our kids are at ages where we're busy every weekend with them and I ask myself if Razorback Tickets are the best use of my time and $$$.

Probably so but that was before the days of instant information and media access.

If Uncle Frank didn't want word to get out he just told Orville the STFU.

I think we'll renew but turn around and sell the season tickets.
