This is a multi year fix

When Sam was hired he was the lowest paid coach in the league. Money was used on assistants instead of the head coach. Assistants were hired to fit the personnel.
Then Sam got a little success and the formula changed. Got a big raise and hired the wrong guys.
We aren’t one portal class away from respectability. It’s a complete rebuild and it shouldn’t be led by the guy that got us in this mess.

So, with that last line, fire HY? Why not...

Who are ADs who are hungry?

At this point, I don’t think the program can be resurrected.
Mediocre hires at the worst possible time. Current 17-18 year olds were 5 year olds the last time we were relevant. With our mediocre NIL, we desperately need some history as a real program to fall back on.

I don’t think HY is dumb enough to keep Sam at HC. Maybe he retires. Maybe he does something in the ADs office.
But yeah if HY says you have to fire him to fire Pittman that’s an easy choice.

They need start taking seats out of the stadium since we don't care for football.

No such thing anymore

It can't be fixed until we get competitive with NIL money. No matter who the coach is.
End of story.
End of story.

Pittman could be given 5 star talent and still lose to BYU.

It doesn't take huge nil money to finish .500 or better.
It doesn't take big nil money to have a team that looks like they give a shite and are giving their best effort.
Arkansas has always had less than the competition in the sec and swc, the lack of effort and pride to represent the university is a recent phenomenon.

Agreed, but with NIL being such a deal now and kids needing to get paid. All of that Prid and Representing has changed a bit. We have been left in the cold man!

Seemed to be plenty of money for a guy who said he needed to step up and be a vocal leader before the game today.

TBH it has been a multi-year fix for a very long time now.

It’s pitch fork or bust my educated fellow prideful #49th state in the union brethren!
Mount thy horses and take a stand!
Let’s be bonafide!

How is more NIL money , gonna make Sam a better in game coach?
How is more NIL money gonna develop players?
How is more NIL money going to teach our offensive line to bench press more?
When Sam got here a huge part of that was we gotta win with who we got! Now that he's had 4 years it's these kids aren't good enough....
Is the NIL money gonna pay for punter? Is that why we have the punter we have?
How is that NIL money gonna handle the roster better and make sure players we want to get the ball see the field?
How is NIL money gonna ensure Sam can manage assistants?
How many proceudral penalties were caused by lack of NIL money?
This is simply kicking the can down the road at the expense of the program. Were poorly coached, end of story.

Exactly.
We always have to do more with less, but Sam’s recruited better than our historical level and has done fairly well with the portal.
Talent isn’t the problem, and talent isn’t the reason we’re 4-8 and staring down another losing season next year.
Coaching and development is the problem. And yet Yurachek got his bluff called by an Oklahoma bumpkin.
