You realize we have a few billionaires up there, right? It’s just getting them to spend it on football like we just did in basketball.


Don’t care how many billionaires you have. Money isn’t enough to fix Arkansas’ problems in football. You are in the middle of a recruiting wasteland. You can spend all the money in the world to convince kids to go there, but that, alone will never be enough to build a top end football program.

Arkansas needs to take all their NIL and go all in on basketball and baseball. Throwing it at football is a total waste.

Just need football to be a 7-5 program yearly and that will be enough to support the rest.

The chicken man isn't going to throw away millions in NIL money on a coach who said he didn't know what to do.

DVH asked for more NIL money and got it. Say what you want about him but he produces results.

Muss got plenty in NIL. Something went sour with the boosters and got less supposedly. Then he started looking for other jobs when his feelings got hurt. Quit coaching, caring this year and hauled arse when the USC job opened up.

No one in Arkansas is going to pour money in NIL for football until they hire a coach that knows what he is doing.

I disagree. Hire the right coach plus NIL and Arkansas football can be a power. Recruiting is now about developing players and NIL. The end.
