Wins and Losses shouldn't matter, as long as they play with that "Razorback Spirit" and show improvement.



The frick are you even talking about?

People like you were ready to lynch Mike if he didn't make the tournament in year 4. He did that, so now you have to move the goalposts.

We'll win more than 10 based on our system. If we had a brand new coach with this team, yea 10 wins would be a stretch ala Mizzou last year.

Conference won't be pretty but we'll take care of business in non-conference at home. People need to chill the F-out.

It's a CBI type year which I can handle.

We're not pulling a freaking Mizzou. I can promise that. If we do and don't land what we need to land for 2016, I'll start to lose faith in the direction of the program.

If you came up with this groundbreaking opinion by yourself, can you give some reasons why you think we'll be so bad?


For starters:

We lost 6 of our top 7 scorers from last year.
We lost our leadership from last year in Portis and Qualls.
We have no depth.
We lack quality size and a scoring post presence.

Why Carolina? I think UK is way more likely.

Guess depends where his AAU homies go honestly.

To get away from crazy arse Hog fans and their expectations.

Go somewhere that is elite.

Go somewhere where he doesn't have to go to class. Or have his mom 20 minutes away and be scrutinized every moment of the day.

At UNC he's just another stud soon to be multi-millionaire.

He can get on the in with Jordan and get that big arse Nike contract and start setting up his Hollywood career for Marcus to skim a fee.

They've started a basketball magazine all based off Malik being a local God and the hope he'll bring Arkansas back to relevance in 1 season.

That gravy train only gets Bigger at a place like UNC.

Marcus wants exposure, that's what Malik will get being in the ACC for a school that doesn't give a shite a class

Why you hate on ky? He was great razorback all 4 years imo. Sure he had his ups and downs but was a team captain his senior year when we finally made it back to the dance. He was selfless, did whatever the coaches asked played out of position out of necessity at times. He will be missed by me at least.

we probably will miss him but i will not miss the bitch face he made 20 times a game.

he was the most frustrating player we've had in years, imo.

that said, he was a hog so he's alright with me.

You OP a thread defending the basketball program from all these irrational haters and have to ask that?

I get it. Some are on here because they're funny and some are on here because they know a little bit about razorback sports.


It's just that I'm having a hard time lately figuring out which is which.

Not even close man.

How quickly you forget the likes of Fortson and Pelphrey merry men.

Ky was a competitor. He had the heart of a Nolan recruit, just not quite the talent.

Still really appreciated his time here. He made some big plays when it mattered.

Well I'm glad I did because the person who claimed we lost 6 of our top 7 scorers listed players who are still on the team.

??? From a leadership perspective he will.

Harris was solid.
Was he great? No, but he had GAME experience.

I'm a basketball fan and we will not be very good.
Can you give me evidence to show we will?
We are NIT bound at BEST. FACT.
