This weekend to WMS. With only 300 tickets left available maybe WMS will be full like when i went in 2011 vs miss st. We dominated that game. Hopefully we do again.

Hopefully. The Ole Miss game is always the most important game of the season for me personally. I am excited. Wish I could make it to WMS this Saturday...even though the game should be in Fayetteville.

For the first time in a long time, WMS is getting a real opponent in a prime time slot. The dump should be rocking.

Giving tickets is all they can do for unofficial visits to WMS.

Coaches and staff can’t have any conversation or contact with recruits at that venue.

Very aware, but i think a win, and a big time hella drunk/hella rowdy environment will be quite appealing to them. Also if they sit in the same section, and some of those players are our better commits *cough* hudson *cough* then it could be a swaying kind of visit even though the coaches can't have contact.

Sometimes players are our best recruiters.

I believe part of the rules read as they can’t organize them for them to sit together so they should be spread throughout the stadium.

Now that is fricking lame imo. Very stupid rule. Needs to be changed.

Is this a SEC rule, or NCAA rule? i believe it is an SEC rule.

NCAA rule. They don’t want visits to games on non-campus venues and it makes sense.

Arkansas’ stubbornness and backward ways of not having as many home games on campus as possible hurts yet again.

Genuinely concerned for the recruit's safety. Not just getting inside the stadium, seeing as how the crime rate is fairly high in that area.. but once inside, can that facility hold 55k fans structurally these days?

Y'all clearly don't know how this works. Only 300 tickets are available through the box office. Stub Hub, Vivid Seats, etc. Still have thousands. Not saying it won't sell out but it has a ways to go.

Of course lmao. People hate WMS because we lose there, it's small, and ugly af. No one fears that the stadium is about to collapse.

I also fear a heatwave Saturday. that place only holds enough bottled water for 2 quarters usually.

We should have been grandfathered in. That falls on the administration.

Well, the funny thing about that is that if they're on the secondary market... it means they've already sold. So that means the university has 300 left until they are.....


sold out.
