Looks like we're trying to have our cake and eat it too. Honestly, I have no dog in the hunt as I plan to never watch a Razorback football game in person for the foreseeable future.

I guess that makes me part of the problem, huh?

I have a sneaking feeling that behind the scenes Sam and Hunter probably either secretly lobbied Sankey or wanted this decision.

I know that's how I would do it. It's embarrassing we play any games there...and I'm from south Arkansas and have been to far more games in my life at WMS than Fayetteville.

I know the spring game is a huge recruiting weekend and of course, you can't recruit at little Rock. It's moronic.

I just hope that this may finally be a way out of the whole deal. The SEC can be the "bad guy" and implement some rule that basically targets shitty off campus "home" games.

They should make a rule that basically says, unless its an extenuating circumstance or a neutral site game, you can't play home games further than a certastuon mileage from campus...or just target WMS directly and say it's not up to sec standards period.
