Kevin Trainor has a better resume. He's actually worked on the hill.

He's my choice.

The carpetbagger has to go.

If somehow it turns out being Baz, I'll reluctantly support him.

Dude has had success at almost everything he has done. He's a workaholic who loves the Hogs, our history, and longs to bring us back to where we should be. IF he was to take the job, I have no doubt he would give it ten times the effort than just about anyone else we could get. Does he have all the check the box experience? No, but regardless of what some may think, he is far from a "retard".

The biggest question for me, is, would he be willing to step away from all the other things he already has his hands in? He seems to have a pretty nice gig with his radio job and it allows him to still be involved with his other projects.

That show maybe pays 150k a year if I had to guess.

He probably does well with LRTD, id assume another 100k

He's for hire to MC events for 3-5k per

BUT

AD makes north of 1mm/year

I understand what you’re saying but my comments really didn’t have anything to do with money. He seems to enjoy everything he does and many of the things he has his hands in are basically like his children that he created and grew, such as the LR touchdown club. Not everyone chases the money when they already love what they’re doing. He might would, though, because the Hogs do fall into the category of something he loves.

Don’t think that should be a rule at all, the best ones seem to be alums.

Except he’s not wearing that stupid looking clown suit.

He also still hasn’t posted anything on X since 9/12. He is trying to lay as low as he possibly can. Someone said it before, but there’s a reason he declined the LR touchdown club. He knew he’d screwed us again and we was about yo be having another shitty season.

At least he didn't leave early this time.

More and more people are starting to see his tenure of lies unfold.

From losses being for cause to middle half meaning dead last, but don't worry more will be available next year.

Agree, Has to be someone with Arkansas in their blood. Has to matter to them.
I could warm up to the Baz idea.....Trainor would be my guy for now.

Say what you want about Bazzel but what dude has done with the Little Rock TD Club is impressive.

Need someone that's gonna get up there and start rolling some heads. Arkansas Football means so much to so many people in this state. And those arse holes have destroyed the one thing we all rally behind.

Baz would be a good fit.

Normally I'd want someone with no connections to the program to come in and breathe some fresh air into the program.
But in this case, I honestly wouldn't be opposed to Baz. He is as fed up as anyone at this point it seems and I think he would give zero fricks about shaking shite up for the better.

Outsider was need after Broyles to break up the factions and mend rifs after the Nutt/Gus fiasco.

That has been accomplished and since there is no oversight from the BOT outside of what the financial spreadsheets look like, you need an Arkansas guy this time.
