Rotnei shot a lot of 3s and played for bad teams that didn't go anywhere at all under a coach we fired.

Jo3 will get credit for being a part of starting off the musselman era is musselman stays and wins

I started listening to Bo in the mid 90s. If I remember correctly, he had a show on an AM station out of Fort Smith.

Then he finally got broadcast down here in Central Arkansas so I listened to him again. Bo was entertaining and had the greatest antagonist callers like Tim from LR or Tigerbait.

I just can't listen to DTS. Most of the fans that call in are legit retarded. "Randy, with this schedule I don't see how Morris don't get at least 8 wins and in the Cotton Bowl! Derp derp!"

Not interested in Wally Hall, Tommy Smith, Bruce James, Jim Harris or Roger Crawford's opinions on Razorback athletics either.

We need new blood reporting on the Razorbacks.

I'd be happy if the media avoided Top 10 list that have nothing to do with sports. Or dumb arse would you rather segments. Also, if you are going to get paid to cover Razorback sports or sports in general be informed about what's going on. Example: How many "sports themed" broadcasts are going to cover the fact that McCann caught a no-hitter for the White Sox last night? Maybe halftime with Phil Elson. Everybody else will have to have a caller bring it up. Ruscin and Zach will probably act indifferent or maybe even pissed that some caller dare bring up sports during their "let's waste time by discussing new shows on Netflix" segment.

"ermagerd der is no sports to talk about - da hog footballz team sux - nobody wants to talk"

bullshite.

There are a ton of sports to talk about - the NBA, NHL, and MLB are playing right now and the NFL is gearing up to start. There are plenty of Pro Hogs in baseball, golf, and trying to make the cut in the NFL. There are around 15 rarely covered Razorback sports whose coaches and staff members on campus that would love the publicity to promote their program or talk about some of the intricacies of their sport in an attempt to gain support or at least exposure. Or how about reconnect with some former hogs. You work in and around Razorback media - you should have developed some baseline rapport with Razorback athletes to call them and pull an interview. Stop with the nonsense about movies, netflix, and/or fast food. "nobody wants to hear 3-4 hours about sports" Yeah.... yeah we do. We tuned into a sports program to listen to sports.

There might be a problem when low production hobby podcast ran by hog fans put together a better product and pull better guests than your syndicated program.

DTS is just bad. Rick is a smartass know it all and Randy is often Bart Simpson prank called.

Bo is a prick and talks over callers that are in the right and turns them off when he can't answer the questions.

Wally Hall got owned by Nutt of all people.

Tommy Smith don't care for.

Bruce James is often negative and this will be a worse year than last type predictions.

Jim Harris don't care for.

Roger Crawford didn't listen to him and not likely ever.

A sports media member gave his opinion on a professional athlete? The audacity

reread the post dumass ---- I was saying that our media should cover pro sports but instead they talk about top 10 pizza restaurants.
