Once again Dale, you are acting like the 90s is relevant. It has just as much relevance as anything Tennessee did in the 90s in football. Zero.

Tennessee is a dead program in football, just as Arkansas is in basketball.

Don't delude yourself.


Arkansas history and tradition is relevant when history and tradition is brought up.

Arkansas is being rebuilt, the program has a feel of the 86-88 era, right now, a few big recruits and it could be back to the performance level of the early 90s.

Arkansas had a coach like Counzo, except his name was Stanley, both were bald bores on the sidelines compared to their predecessor, both coached a brand of ball that was a 180 in terms of style to their predecessor, both were seemed as mediocre compared to their predecessor. Things couldn't get worse, right?

Wrong.

When it is being said Tennessee won't pay more than x amount, that says an over the hill "name" or an up and comer will be next in line. It doesn't scream a program that is a powerhouse or is dedicated to becoming one.

Because you followed the piss poor hire of Heath with John Pelphrey, a coach with a winning percentage below 55.

Making back-to-back hires as bad as Heath and Pelphrey is much more similar to Tennessee football post Fulmer than Tennessee basketball.
