I can’t think a true Hog fan who wouldn’t pay a little extra to get Arkansas back to what we used to be.
I got sick of paying coaches for two wins, there are more of us than you think.

We may be at that point. We certainly will be if this latest experiment doesn’t work.

Nah, there's still enough of the millennials to continue to support a shitty product for another 10 years.
They haven't had their fill yet and chicken man ain't saving their asses on this one.

Not sure why those question marks came up. I tried to post smilie faces and 100 percent signs. I agree with you.

TRIGGER ALERT: Our youngest graduated Ole Miss in 2024.
With that out of the way, here is what I know. There are local businesses donating a portion of or all sales on certain products to NIL funding. The local brewery right next to VH sells beer in the concessions. The proceeds from one of their beers goes to OM NIL funding.
I am a born and raised Arkansan. 45 of my direct family, myself included have a degree from a University of Arkansas school. At one time, we had five on The Hill at one time. Lest ye doubt my allegiance to the Hogs.
I raised my family in Frisco, TX. The last year of the son in question’s high school we had a mid life crisis and moved to Lake Ouachita so he finished at Mount Ida. He was a pretty good HS player ——- good enough to be passed to play so he got lazy with school work while we were in DFW. If you remember the 2017 AR 2A championship between Mt. Ida and Foreman, my son is the kid they put in as QB in the last 3 minutes of the game that threw the 60 yard TD pass to the regular Veer Offense QB. FWIW, that was one of the last if not the last public appearance from Mitch Petrus before he passed away. We have the footage of the play and his color commentary. He was one of a kind. What a great life story!
He tried to go to U of A but they would not let him in with a 2.8 GPA w/o taking Jr. College classes. Ole Miss allowed him in so he went there. Once he started working at it, he got a scholarship.
Sorry for the long reply but right now, we need legal, legitimate money any way we can get it. Sadly that is the state of today’s NFL Division 2 football. Maybe we will see some tweaking happen so we don’t have kids going to four or more schools or pros coming back to college.
The biggest shock to me about Hog football is that we did not embrace the new system. Look how it has worked for IU.

And this is why it's infuriating that Hunter's still here. We're reactive instead of being forward-thinking and proactive. I wish they had the balls to fire him but evidently they don't.
Ole Miss's collective isn't just funded by a couple of rich alums. It's much more grass roots. A friend of mine's an Ole Miss alum and he donates $100/monthly. There are lots of other fans just like him who donate like that and that's why they have been setup for success. They don't have to depend on just a few rich donors and their whims.

Nailed it. We cursed at the clouds like an old codger instead of playing the hand this new system dealt us.

Hill Syndicate? Hog Bucks? Tusk Collective? Whatever you want to call it, we should emulate it.

They tried that with edge where 75 of your 100 was kept by the firm that ran edge.
Then hunter and to little rock and blamed the fans for being poorz.

Yeah, whoever signed off on that deal should have been fired. Good lord that was stupid.
As fior the "poors", the fanbase wasn't willing to invest in Pittman. They didn't see what Ole Miss fans understandably saw in Kiffin. OM fans knew Kiffin would be up for openings yearly and wanted to prove that he could build a contender there. No one ever felt that way about Pittman.
