re: Did A&M joining the west cement Arkansas' permanent mediocrity?

He's making shite up to compensate because he feels inferior (and rightfully so) to Arkansas.

The big winner in the A&M to the SEC will be the Liberty bowl as Arkansas will travel heavy to west memphis*( and Memphis) going forward.

Uh, what?

Well didn't you know?

It is a fact that A&M stands alone at the top regarding SEC winning percentage -- all time.

And do you see how that fact, just as the A&M-Arky head-to-head record, properly frames A&M's position in the conference and college football in general?

Look up every other metric one uses to judge a program, compares arky to a&m, and get back to me

Dear child, I said almost unanimously.

Of course every once in awhile an anomalous result occurs where quality college football players -- from Texas and elsewhere -- find themselves at Arkansas.

Ya think that may be a small sample size, there?

Ahh...

Now you're getting the idea and also learning the concept of distortion.

Well done.

You are just talking man. The words coming out don't make any sense. I would suggest talking less because you don't know what the frick you are talking about.

We still had more SWC championships than you had before you left. And we have more wins, a higher winning percentage, more bowl wins, more heismans, etc

I've always maintained that the program that would suffer the most from A&M's potential success in the SEC was Arkansas. LSU/Bama/Auburn will have to compete for recruits with us, but they are too elite to see a significant drop off just because we are good. Arkansas, on the other hand, doesn't have near the history or recruiting prowess. Before this year, really the only thing Arkansas could pitch recruits over A&M was the SEC. They have gotten some pretty good players from the state of Texas over the last few years, and that's going to pretty much come to a stand-still now. And they don't have nearly the same number of elite in-state recruits as Louisiana and Alabama do to cushion the blow.

Agreed.
