I get on MA's case and want better coaching, recruiting, assistants, and record for sure. Much better than we have had concerning the NCAA tourney etc. But I would never wish a loss on MA, or the Hogs. Dude is nothing but class as a human being.
Nothing wrong with being upset or wanting more wins from Mike Anderson. His roster management and lack of post season success are 2 key things that anger fans. However, you should never want him to lose - as long as he is our coach. MA loses we lose. Why would any fan want the Razorbacks to lose?

I'm sure I'll be given some dumbshite reasoning about how some fans are "realists" and want better thus they want Mike to lose so he is fired. If you are a fan you should want Mike to be better (even if you don't think he can) and win the rest of games here as a coach. He wins - we win. DUH!

No, I don't... I have never wished a loss on the Razorbacks in any sport, nor on Mike Anderson. But keep your head on straight, up your arse of course...

One of you haters actually said that they hope a 3 win finish would be enough to get Mike Anderson fired.

We are 2-0 since then with a road win @ #18.

Do you even understand what you’re laughing at?

If he were to only win 3 more games, then that should happen.

There’s a big difference in stating “I hope Mike Anderson never wins another game and I’m rooting against Arkansas” and “If he only wins 3 more games that should be enough to get him fired.”

Do you even understand the difference?

I’ll never root for my school to lose in any sport. I rooted for John L Smith’s teams up until the final horn. I rooted for Bert’s teams until the final horn. I rooted for Pelphrey’s teams each and every damn week during the 2-14 SEC campaign.

I highly doubt anyone on this board wants Arkansas to lose a game in any sport. Some of you have a really big issue with people being critical of a coach and thinking those individuals are hoping for a loss.

My grandfather hated every damn coach I played for and thought they were all idiots. He hated my Pee Wee coach and talked about how dumb he was. He talked about my high school coach and talked about how stupid his calls were. He talked about my college coach and coordinators like they hadn’t coached a day in their life. At the end of the day, he still wanted those coaches and his grandson to win.

It’s pretty damn simple, you just seem to take the criticism of Mike Anderson the totally wrong way.

Way too long and didn't read.

Did you make predictions? You seem to be keen on making them.

Team grew up a lot last night, would love to come out and blitz Vandy in the first half and pour it on in the second. Would be a massive swing in the season.

Wish Gafford was playing like he did vs LSU all season, we'd be in solid shape.

Said the same thing to my brother. No clue where his assertiveness goes half the time.

Lsu went 0/5 from the last 5 fga and went scoreless for the final 2:01 but they kept getting to the line. Our bench needs to stay consistent.

Bench Points 23
Points In Paint 32
Points off Turns 24
ONLY 2 FastBreak Points

Did they really only have 2 fast break points? Wow. That's impressive that they were still able to get that win on the road considering that stat and the free throw disparity.

Arkansas played a great game yesterday.

Another 1 and done in the Tourney would get Mike 10 more years.

We could end up anywhere between 12-6 and 9-9

Was 6-3 over the last 9 before the Vandy game

Now it is 5-4, we were expected to beat Vandy by 10 so took a small hit by only winning by 3

I figured Vanderbilt may give us a game. My first post in the game thread last night made mention there was a good possibility that Vanderbilt could come out throwing haymakers to try and end that 9 game skid.

I'm very pleased that the Hogs were able to slam the door shut on them like they did. Keyshawn Embery Simpson is playing high level basketball over these last few games. That was an ENORMOUS clutch 3 he hit late in that game.


I'm tempted to change my prediction for South Carolina to a win, but I'm gonna leave it as a loss. That way if we pick this one up too we are ahead of the curve for a 9-3 finish, IMO.

We closed it gently bud! Slamming it would have looked different and been a higher margin of victory!

Nahh, good win against a team who hasn't won a game in the SEC yet. But they don't look nearly as bad as their record predicts.
