re: When will Arkansas

Players from within the state will leave. We STILL play games in LR. Michael Dyer went to Auburn. We play in LR AND Fayetteville, Frazier's going to Auburn. You can't dictate the financial well-being and logically superior direction of the program on some rampant lie such as the one perpetrated by the lazy contingent of our "fans."

Of course you will have some players leave no matter what. But playing games in LR definetly helps, IMO.

Look, I live in LR, but I don't want the games in LR for my benefit. I love going to games in Fayetteville and the Rock. It's not a far drive for someone in Central Arkansas, maybe a good distance for someone in South AR, but thats not the point. I want games in LR because it's always a great atmosphere, we have played great there traditionally, and it helps recruiting in LR, which IMO, is the most important area for us to recruit. Look at DJ Williams, Joe Adams, Jake Bequette. All impact players from Little Rock. These guys have talked about how much they look forward to going back home to play a game. Adams' recruitment was extremely close between USC and AR, don't tell me games in LR didn't play a part in his decision.
