Something different for a change...a thread complimenting Arkansas!

I know everyone on this board seems to take turns poking fun at the Piggies. So I wanted to do something different, and compliment the Hog fans on Arkansas' amazing facilities.
University of Arkansas Softball's Bogle Park
With a facility like this to call home, it's -shocking- to hear the Lady Piglets were swept by LSU. I mean, what recruit wouldn't want to play in this beautiful park?
University of Arkansas Basketball's Bud Walton Arena
The Hogs recently hosted LSU and lost a heart-breaker at the buzzer to the Tigers. It truly surprises me how a school with an arena this nice hasn't had more success recruiting superior athletes. What gives?
University of Arkansas Gymnastics Barnhill Arena
The University of Arkansas did an amazing job renovating Barnhill Arena just for gymnastics and volleyball. Some of the changes included a new paint job in areas immediately surrounding the playing surface, new lights to accommodate the space requirements of gymnastics and a state-of-the-art sound system and scoreboards.
So I can imagine you, like me, would be surprised at Arkansas Gymnastics recent lack of success. You'd think with a facility like this, no other school would have a chance against them recruiting-wise.
University of Arkansas Baseball's Baum Stadium
This place truly is a gem. The acme of college baseball facilities. Always admired, never duplicated. How strange that Arkansas baseball isn't more relevant. Are recruits crazy? Can they not find Fayetteville on a map? Something is just not right here. What can it be?
That's all I got Hog fans. I'm truly jealous of those sparkling facilities of yours. And I'm -sure- that one day soon, recruits will just line up, begging for a chance to represent your fine school and play in your amazing facilities!

Our fans dont boo their own players or leave early.

That's a lot of work just to say you're upset

As I learned in another thread, Arky >>>> OM.
It may not be much, but still.

You should have posted a picture of our football facilities and explained the lack of recruiting there too.

It's funny you make no mention of a certain sport called football...

You make a good point. Congrats on improving drastically through the year and becoming one of the best 2-6 teams the SEC has ever seen.

Hey! You coonasses are supposed to be pickin on us! What gives?

He was trying to compliment Arkansas.
Do you really want to talk about Razorback Stadium?
A stadium that was once home to a team that won SWC Championships regularly.
A stadium that has fallen so far it has not seen a conference title from the home team since joining the SEC.
A stadium that is home to a fanbase that has been reduced to rushing the field after ending one of the nastiest losing streaks in SEC history.
There you go Bud. You got the "mention" and the attention you craved.

If the football fans are any indication then I'm guessing the schools of the SEC house the best History departments in the nation.

Sometimes you gotta ride out that meth high before you can drive.

This is certainly true for motorcycles, and you want to be extra careful if you have a secret coed riding with you and you don't want your wife to find out. Just a tip.

thanks- you reminded me mizzou fan, we also don't taunt players or coaches by yelling names of their dead relatives.
