Win the press conference.
What is he supposed to say? I like playing in a dump, in a shite city (that provides a lot of our players), a place no one wants to be so we have to take the game off air to force people to go in person, and being on the road during a “home game”.

The fans at these games have been fantastic every time I've gone. Granted it couldn't help us against Hofstra last year.

It's been awesome every year that Muss has been here. Packed and loud AF. Already got some of the NWA soy boys in here melting. Well done Boogie

It’s not melting, it’s the truth. City sucks. They take the game off tv so people have to go in person. We get half of our big talent from Little Rock.
I know a lot of people born in little rock don’t understand truth, but that’s what that was.

Simmons concourse > BWA concourse
Simmons beer lines > BWA beer lines
Unfortunately...
Murder rate outside Simmons > BWA

Grew up with Dad taking us to Barton Coliseum, and I thought it was the greatest basketball venue in history, little did we realize it was a rodeo arena in the ghetto

Then he hasn't been in attendance of the 2009 Texas game at the Bud.

Hofstra looked like the 2013 spurs against us last year

It was an awesome night. Just to sit towards the top of Barton and watch the chaos unfold.
On the way down, we had convinced a friend of ours that Harold Gwatney was giving us ringside seats. A friend was related to him distantly. He walked in and asked to speak to Harold and went through the whole Harold told us to come get tickets conversation. Laughed so hard on that one.
We thought it was a Raw show. Everybody did.
A guy grabbed a chair and went to smash another guy in the head. Just as he was about to swing forward a cop crabbed then chair and stopped it from happening.
A buddy of mine was almost run over by a limo fleeing Barton as we walked back to the car.
Best concert I’ve ever seen was at Barton as well. Chris Ledoux at Super Bull.
In the 90’s the following performed there.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Foo Fighters
Korn
Prince
Stone Temple Pilots
Bush
Smashing Pumpkins
Kiss
Ozzy
No Doubt
Page/Plane
James Taylor
Pearl Jam
Bon Jovi
Def Leppard
Van Halen
Metallica
Jimmy Buffet
ACDC
Motley Crue
Just an awesome venue and time to grow up in.
Everybody talks about Lynrd Skynrd being on the way to Baton Rouge when the plane crashed. They were scheduled to be in Barton two days after.

When the Barton Coliseum was formally dedicated in 1952, it was noted by local newspapers as being “the finest arena in the South,” with only four arenas in the nation being larger – those in New York, Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco.

I have a feeling Pittboss is not done
We need to hope Deke Adams stays put on the defensive line, because he moves around way too much
I wonder if the corners coach is just too young and needs to go
Sam was sort of asked that and he avoided the question, which I think means he's got more changes coming. If there were no changes coming, I think he would have said "we're done." He didn't say that
I hope Travis coordinates from the linebacker coaching position, and then we hire a new corners coach, and then a safety coach who is an old defensive coordinator for Travis to lean on when need be - hell, literally safeties coach David Gibbs from UCF who Travis just got through working with. Safety coach, he's been DC at Minnesota, Houston, Auburn and Texas Tech
I hope like hell that Gibbs move is already in the works
he's a native of Auburn, Alabama and he played at Colorado - what better place to split the difference than Fayetteville
