Our "5.7 3 star" recruits still beat the shite out of your 4 and 5 star recruits

Think about that for a moment

So we can agree that A&M had an unbelievable year this year but is in no way able to compete historically with Ole Miss OR Arkansas.

A&M has more conference titles, national titles. More all time wins. Is there even 1 metric where ole Miss is ahead?

Titles before 1940 are pretty meaningless

You got those wins back when you had 4-star and 5-stars and we could only get 3 stars. It seems integration has not been kind to Arkansas football.

yea... you don't build a win gap like that without consistently beating someone. you realize we win about 62% (rounded down) of the games we play against you right?

Are you familiar with the idea of "rare"?

Oh wait, it's the whole "winning once in 20 years" bit. Precious.

Question: Is Arkansas proud that it can sustain mediocrity -- and sometimes experience quality -- even though high school players hate it?

It's an interesting thought, no?

Easy, chief.

That's a bit of a stretch.

Don't get too high on the horse. Your program is barely better historically, and isn't at all if we go by the standards of Arky fans and only count the head-to-head.

You're right, way too low. In the coming years our 5.8 and above athletes will continue the tradition of beating the shite out of you

Allow me.

You want to have pride in your program, but you know that, regardless of what's done with facilities, coaching, and stints of success, its existence is invariably repulsive to football players who other programs want.

I think that's sort of interesting.
