I've always thought of it as a pretty good looking venue.

Depends on your definition of elite. It's definitely one of the best in the conference. Is it elite nationally? Probably not


Maybe not now, but I was implying in the SEC, since it was more of a SEC OP.

Gotcha. It's probably one of the top 3-4 facilities in the conference, at least.

How about UGA hire Mike Anderson, suitcase needs to suitcase.

#2 behind Rupp, IMO

But I'm biased.

That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Thought it was a troll thread by the title, but the OP and some posters seem to be serious.

UGA.

Only advantage I see for Arkansas is facilities.

We are mediocre as hell right now in bball but come on.

The Stegosaurus is an awful arena and most UGA football fans are UK or UNC bball fans.

UGA is a terrible bball job.

UGA's last SEC title: 2008
Arky's: 2000

Not trying to say we're a much better job, but maybe Arkansas fans need to get off their high horse about their basketball program.

Regular season or SEC tournament title?

There is literally nothing UGA has over Arkansas in terms of bball... The only possibility might be proximity to ATL, but bball recruiting is nation wide... not regionalized like football.

Tourny. Both have 3 of each type.

Arkansas hasn't won a regular season title since 94

No dig, because it applies to even UF, but I like the regular season championship a bit more. Don't get me wrong, the cutting of the nets is awesome and the Tournament trophy is a nice accomplishment.

Arkansas has tons of history. UGA's BBall program has always been at the bottom of the barrel in the SEC. Our AD put basketball in a higher pedestal in the last two decades but before than.. UGA's AD never cared too much about basketball.

Arkansas won NCG in 1994, runner up in 1995
UGA never

Arkansas final four appearance: 6x
UGA final four appearance: 1x


Arkansas Elite Eight: 10x
UGA Elite Eight: 1x

Arkansas Tournament appearances: 29x
UGA Tournament appearances: 9x (2 vacated)

Better facilities + better history is what sells recruits and UGA has neither. Try to sell UGA basketball to a recruit and there isn't much of a selling point. Sure Atlanta is loaded with talent.. but how many does UGA actually get?

Is this a serious question? Arkansas is a top 3 job in the SEC. We just have a beyond delusional fan base that want's to fire a proven coach in his third year. Some Arkansas fans on this board are making HiV look like level headed people and that's saying something.

Arkansas & it's not that close imo. They have better facilities (BWA), history, & UGA has always had these recruiting advantages in basketball (fb included) however it seems they can never get the job done
