Didn't know you were this insecure, SoG.
Literally just comparing programs, expectations and starting points.
I didn't mean that as a troll to Arkansas football. Arkansas fans should have been excited - they came from nothing and Pittman was showing promise and building a great foundation. Same with us in basketball. But, like with you guys in football, expectations grow as you win and so while a 6 seed and 1st round loss in 2018 would have been widely cheered this year it is looked at as a bit of a disappointment. If Arkansas goes 7-5 next year and goes to the Music City Bowl folks won't want to fire him but there will be some disappointment.......whereas that happening in 2020 would have been cheered from the mountaintops. It's just the magic of expectations.
