Off the top of my head...

*ESPN agrees that
40 minutes of Hell was revolutionary...

*Also...
The Hogs started the baggy shorts craze and made you throw away your daisy dukes

*Frank Broyles (yea that Broyles) ...He has an award named after him and he mentored Switzer, Jimmy Johnson, Joe Gibbs, Pete Carol, Hayden Frye, Johnny Majors, Ken Hatfield and a host of others. proof

*Jerry Jones...Cowboys owner(most valuable NFL franchise)

*John McDonnell ...The most successful coach in NCAA history and the architect of the most powerful sports dynasty that the NCAA has ever seen.


*Gus played for the Hogs and started his college coaching career with the Hogs...He now leads one of the largest cults in America!

*CFP Chairman Jeff Long (Our AD)

As you can see ...Arkansas is a program of great influence in FB, BB, and Olympic Sports. I want to genuinely thank you for reading and every comment gets one FREE upvote!!!

No speedos, but anything that gets remotely close to the knees is basically a set of capris. MY LEGS ARE TOO SEXY TO BE CAGED IN YOUR CARGO SHORTS.

You forgot to mention the greatest LSU coach in history, Nick Saban.

It's okay, we'll make sure he gets his proper due.
