So why take shots at Arkansas, other than being envious?
To be fair, Arkansas fans do run around acting like they're UK's equal in basketball historically. You had a nice ten year run in the 80s-90s with moderate success in the early 80s. 75% of your basketball history is littered with 10-18 win seasons.

No it's not.
Arkansas didn't even reach a Final Four in the 1980's.
Arkansas started its basketball program about 25-30 years after most major programs as well.
There are about 13 programs in NCAA tourney history who have 40 tourney wins, we are one of those. Our first final four was in the 1940's.
Our program over the course of its history is a 20 win a year program. There aren't many programs who can say that. I would say, probably only around 20-25.
