And my point is according to recruiting Washington had the 26th best talent roster in the country. If we switch coaches with them we are a 9 win team at worst this season
This is true but so is The Sultan's point about their roster. Not necessarily from the race standpoint, but the fact that significantly more of their players are from nearby (and probably grew up wanting to play there) gives them an advantage just on team pride alone. You get more effort out of "lesser" recruits because they care more about the reputation of the program than some 5 star from 600 miles away. Couple that with outstanding coaching and you get what we're seeing from Washington this year.

Kind of important that the guy wants to coach here, though. If he did, he probably would have been here and gone for greener pastures already anyway.

You realize that this isn't anything new, right? Outside of a blip or two, Arkansas hasn't been relevant in college football for at least 50 years.

If we hired Kiffin instead of Chaggy, there's not a chance he would be here now. It's not a commentary on Arkansas, it's a commentary on Kiffin. He's been a head coach since 2007, and he's been at Ole Miss longer than anywhere he's ever been.

Absolutely correct.
Because poor 'lil Arky wouldn't have payed the money to hire him nor keep him on staff.
Why do that when you could hire a glorified HS coach with zero HC experience.

So why exactly would he not have stayed here the way he has at ole miss?

That is probably correct, but he may have gone 7-5 and left in the middle of the season.... Or do us like he did Tenner...
He is/has been a lose cannon...

Awww, Ok... Hey 55.. You must like what you have seen this year,, UmmmKkkk? Good...
Dude, wth... None of us like it, be some of us understand that It isn't going to change as in the HC at this point, and wasn't many weeks ago. Some of us decide it is best to just either get away from it, deal with the current situation and hope for the best.. while others just want to pizz and moan saying the same thing ad nauseum.
Others, Well... they like to be the "Told you so" crowd... and brag about how their savant fan skills knew all along that this would be the outcome. If I had their address, I'd send them a cookie...
It really isn't that serious bro!

Have you seen our pay, fanbase, and history? How about our leadership overall? Uhhh... Agree with Arhog here!

I guess I can answer both of you, but most of it is just a rehashing of the coaching searches.
Kiffin has a pretty high opinion of himself, in my estimation. I think he believes he is bigger than programs like Arkansas, and Ole Miss too.
Arkansas has shown that they aren’t very serious about competing at the highest levels in college football. No way Kiffin sticks at a university that isn’t willing to do what it takes to win.

If Kiffin thought so lowly of Ole Miss then why didn't he take the supposedly a superior job in Auburn?
Maybe that job isn't as good of a job that people think it is.
I think he knows that he has made a good decision staying at Ole Miss now that the 12 team playoff is coming next year and he doesn't have to deal with any outrageous expectations.

Arkansas hasn't shown that they care.
Ole Miss was like that but they must have had a change of heart recently and said screw it, we will do whatever it takes to not be Mississippi anymore.
Ole Miss starts an NIL collective in January 2022 and by the summer of that year, it was 10 million dollars. In 2023, it was roughly over 15 million dollars.
Arkansas?
Well they started one which fans didn't know existed and didn't collect anything.
They waited until November 2023 to do so which puts them behind the competition.
So tell me, who wants it more?

Just look at Texas and Tennessee. You knew deep down they wouldn’t be bad forever because they care. Honestly same with Nebraska. They care. They’ll do whatever it takes. Maybe 10/20 years but those fan bases will never give up the desire to be at the top.

It seems like aggie, texas and okie lean pretty heavily on texas talent. I’ve thought for a while now that texas talent, especially in the trenches, is overrated. Skill players and dbacks and such are good, but it seems there’s a toughness factor up front that don’t match the SEC.
I can’t think of any other reason why these schools haven’t dominated while surrounded by all that “talent.”
