Jeff Long made the mistake of saying it out loud that “we aren’t a win at all cost football program”. Keeping a 4-8 coach is all but saying the same thing. It seems the BOT aren’t all in on football.

What a banner day for Razorback Sports. We must celebrate how close we were and the effort of these proud young men. Bump. Cuck losers - defend this shitshow. Please.

We take checks from the SEC to fund our other sports with no real desire to be competitive in football.
I'm not letting HY skate but it's the people above HY who are the problem as well.
Our entire administration lacks real strategy and leadership.
Athletic administrators get rich as hell from the big TV money but in a few years time when we are left behind as football breaks away it'll be a bunch of finger pointing and shifting of blame to others with no accountability for those who have raked in the money.

It isn't the fault of one person but many.
Boosters and other people of influence. Some fans have some blame as they make excuses of the current situation. They will continue to make them and normalize awful football.
I was looking around the stadium and I was thinking to myself how are they going to continue to get people to these games in the future?
No one is going to keep supporting a loser and future generations will grow up knowing that Arkansas is a bottom feeder in the SEC. That is a bad deal because older generations knew Arkansas was from the level of decent to very good.
Arkansas has the wrong people in charge and Arkansas will continue being a loser but being a loser has consequences.

As long as the corporate/trust fund crowd keep the waiting list for boxes a mile long, and the new money types keep getting suckered in to buying the club level seats,nothing else matters.

Yet you’re at the game, supporting this shitty program. I had access to free tickets and said nope, ain’t happening.

I've always liked Yurachek but if he can't make some handshakes and put 15 million together to make it look like we're trying then he's in over his head. This is the SEC not the Sunbelt.

The main issue is he's having to put 15 million together.
If he wanted to pay Sam more that's fine, Arkansas can afford it. Showing the pay can be there would only attract better candidates for Sam's replacement.
What wasn't needed was a guaranteed contract via the buyout. Bert's was somewhat warranted as he was a successful P5 coach before hand, Nutt's ws largely already his money via deferred payment, and Petrino's was to secure his staying.
There isn't a demand for Sam, if there was you could renegotiate at that time. He isn't going to find another HC job after ours to offset the payment amount. The only coach who has done that has been Nutt (against mostly his money to begin with) and Anderson (immediately took another job offsetting fun fun fun).
Pel, Bert, and chaggy all took lower level jobs at a reduced rate to ensure Arkansas paid the maximum possible. Sam has his set up where he doesn't even have to pretend to try, just go to the lake.
HY is responsible for this situation.

I viewed the deal a week ago as the dreaded "vote of confidence"
Surely he gets the axe at 4pm today.

Nope, they are trying to figure out a way to spin and pump the very underwhelming OC hire.
Don't worry Kennedy remaining on staff was a condition for the OC to accept the job.

quote:You're right on all counts. Having said that, $15 million is jack shite. That's why HY gave out the money to an interim coach in the first place. Yeah he gave some money away there but don't compound a problem when you've had a solid tenure thus far. Eat the mistake and move on.

$15 million is absolute minimum cost of a coaching change in the SEC in 2023. If we want to stay competitive in the SEC then we need to keep paying to do so.

The razorback foundation has to pay, so Hy needs donations.
It isn't just 15 million, you already have Enos buyout which was 3 million (IIRC) plus the rest of the staff and the staff you plan to hire, the total number is closer to 50 Million that is is 20.
The compounding problem is the coffers have not been replenished after the Bert and Chad costly buyouts which have only been of the books a very short while.

You don’t give a buyout if you can’t afford to pay it at any time, no matter how good things are going in the moment.

I gave up my season tickets after the 2016 season when Jeff Long said winning didn't matter. I was a season ticket holder since 2002.
I just wanted to see how this team would play after getting the vote of confidence from Yuracheck.
Maybe they would play harder but I was wrong and they would rather fight than play the game.
Plenty of quit in this game that will spillover into next season.
I can't go to these games that now Sam will be back. I wasted my money on a game that was like watching an episode from the Jerry Springer show.
Why Pittman hasn't been fired yet makes me believe that Arkansas is a bad fit in the SEC.
They are here just to pick up a check and are losers that are happy being who they are.

In the last 10 years We’ve lost to liberty, Toledo, ULM, San jose state, western kentucky, north Texas, and Rutgers. Which brings me back to the biggest issue I have with Razorback football. Everyone complains we don’t have the talent to compete in the sec, but talent isn’t what cost us in all of those games and it’s not what costs us against teams like Missouri and Mississippi state. It’s coaching. shite rotten coaching! We may not be talented enough to beat Georgia or alabama but we’re talented enough to beat byu and Liberty so that bullshite argument doesn’t hold water, and no amount of NIL will fix that.

Arkansas has no choice but to compete in the SEC.
No longer can they depend on the Mississippi schools as a win because they are trying unlike Arkansas who wants to tap on the breaks.
Not trying means last in the SEC each year.
