they had the same 2 coaches for 30 years. They built alot of what they did by getting some of the cream of the crop from SC, NC, GA, FL. They border alot of states and have traditionally got media exposure in alot of states. Arkansas is located in the far north west quandrant of the conference and the big problem is the state doesn't produce enough talent and OK and TX and other big12 schools get most the SEC caliber talent there.
The biggest thing with TN was they had the biggest budget, They kept the same 2 coaches, and they took advantage over the years of alot of coaching changes and instability in neighboring states.

you don't have a clue how the world works do you? you completely leave out the factor of recruiting except for when you tell me how bad Arkansas's is. If I try to tell you that our recruiting is fine as it was last year you tell me that Rival's rankings are useless even when I didn't say anything about them.
How does having a large budget attract recruits unless they are being paid? If they kept those two coaches and were a winning program, that means those coaches were doing well, so kudos to Tenner for not hiring people like Danny Ford and Jack Crowe.
Exactly there is no evidence that Arkansas with a good recruiting staff cannot do the same thing to our border states which are LA, MS, TX, OK, and MO as well as Memphis. We've yet to see what can be done and you write it off as something that can never be done.
So the media exposure of the SEC can't bring recruits out of the B12 to Arkansas?
I don't know why you've decided that Arkansas can't be successful but if you could come up with a thesis that doesn't revolve around Nutt sucking and the state of Arkansas's lack of population I'd be willing to listen.
