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.

Not my point. My point was outside of the very limited success timeframe, Arkansas hasnt been very successful overall. You've missed over half the tournament that have been played.

Wow! Amazing! Oh yeah, in the 1940s, the NCAA Tournament was 8 teams. So you won a single game to get to the Final 4 in the 1940s.
