Here in lies a MAJOR problem with LR. They always expect someone else to pay for everything, and then keep it up for them. Why the University ended up in Fayetteville in the first place. LR wanted to be paid to host the University, while Fayettevile provided land on the edge of town.
Here's a great ideal for LR. Build something nice, and then don't fricking trash it, or let it go to shite. Maybe things can start to look up then.

Sink more money and lose more intake?
Solid business plan.
If we do anything we should make it a road game against another Arkansas school and make it their home game.

If your talking about the WMS games, ULM was the home team every time they played them there, the contract was such to pay them less than the going rate for them to be the home team and count the attendance to remain on the fbs level.

quote:ha...... two reasons why -
all i know is that everyone seems way more impressed with the little rock crowd
1. Because we had to make a comeback to win the game. The Bud has been loud this season but at the end of the game we usually have destroyed the scrubs so NWA fans are making their way to donate and build even better facilities which have the capabilities to broadcast games.
2. Marching orders. Players and coaches have been told to talk up little rock. The word is out that the fans down there are sensitive and must be coddled. Whatever you do don't call it an away or neutral site game!!!
Think about this - little rock gets one basketball game a year and you can't even sell it out. 15k for a one loss team. There is a reason why they don't televise the games. They are trying to get ya'll to show up. Heck, they were bussing fans down from NWA to help inflate the crowd. Meanwhile, we had 17k vs. a horrible Rice team at home. We had 15k for Tulsa despite students not showing up due to finals. We have already sold out 4 games coming up and are close to selling out our SEC opener vs. AnM.
Good thing for little rock fans - just because you won't drive to watch the Razorbacks play you can still watch the game.
quote:Why is it our responsibility to pay for your crap? The Razorbacks are already providing a welfare service by playing a home game off campus there is no need to continue to lose money by sinking it into broadcasting the game.
seems like maybe the university should invest in the arena and add a few games to offset the cost.
Let me guess.... you think that we should help bail out the trojans and little rock university from their monumental debt? Step it up little rock. Fix your own university and get your arenas/stadiums up to par.

Because we are the capital city. We will let you know when we don't want games here. Until then pony up.

Well whippty fricking do....
And you wonder why your continue to fall behind....
NWA doesn't do everything right, but you don't land on best places to live year after year after year without doing allot right.
With that said, I want Central At to do well, but your entitlement is one of your biggest problems that gets in your own way.

These arguments about LR vs NWA are retarded.

That would work. Hogs need a game in NLR to keep a recruiting presence in Central Arkansas. What in state talent there is, is going to be from Central, South or East Arkansas.

What, with one on the roster and one commit? (Joe, Jaylin Williams.)
Central Arkansas has (since we are counting commits as well), Henderson (I know), Moody, DeVonta, KK, Vanover. Ran out of room or could have taken McBride. Justice Hill left, but could have helped. Past players include Bobby Portis, Joe Johnson and others. Brewer is the only past player that comes to mind from Ft. Smith.
