Our hearts have been ripped from our chests twice now

No one can explain it
we still have the best baseball coach in the college game
We look at LSU and Vandy and Florida having natties and it eats at us. That's pride.
I know the Bible talks to us about pride and I understand some of it, but not nearly all of it. So how about this: congrats LSU and Florida and Vandy on the natties, and we are close to joining you.
Do we as a fanbase propagate our OCD natty anxiety onto our players who might not even remember the foul ball? If we don't, then it's a fricking miracle.
Let's calm down and keep supporting this great coaching staff and all these wonderful players who work their asses off for us every day
Let's remember that pride is a sin. Celebrating victory is not. There's a difference.

Love DVH but this isn’t true

GFY, Pio.

Just gotta get better and trust that DVH will set a new floor for what we have generally considered "success". I have no doubt that he wants our program to be even better than I want it to be so that's all I can ask. Our profile continues to rise. Enjoy the season we had and what's still to come.

Over half of them aren’t from Arkansas and none of them were alive when Clint Stoerner fumbled so they shouldn’t know or care about our historical failures. Somehow it seems like they do.

As an Arkansas fan you can’t really expect national championships in the big three. The best you can hope for is awesome moments. I’ve been fortunate to experience some of those moments live. The miracle on markam, wheel route to wingo against bama, dmac up the middle for 80 against LSU.
These are moments when the crowd is so loud you can’t hear yourself think. Chuck’s blast against Nebraska ranks up there as one of those moments. First time my kids got to experience peak Arkansas.
So yeah this season ended like all the ones I mentioned but it was a good ride.

The correct answer right here.
If DVH can grasp this we'll have another shot at a Natty. I've heard Dave say repeatedly well we hit the ball hard or we hit it right to them.
Too many ducks left on the pond for years.
Oh well after all, we're Arkansas.

Losing a one run game 3 in a super happens. Not a reason to fly off the rails

Meh. I feel more like the concerns I had all year came to fruition rather than my heart being ripped out. Disappointed? Sure.
We very much do this. We are hungry for a title in the big 3 sports and the hog athletes feel that pressure.
I agree with the others in this thread that Corbin is better. I'm not dissing DVH. We are lucky to have him and I am very content with him. He isn't the best though.

Are you only 2 years old?
Posted on 6/16/21 at 1:25 pm to Harry Rex Vonner
I agree with HRV. Always have.
Am I supposed to be upset that we came in 2nd one year and were ranked #1 for most of another? Then I'd hate to be a fan of 99% of the other schools out there.
As for DVH, I often don't agree with him, but I can't argue with his success. We'd be thrilled if Pittman accomplished as much, but we're supposed to be disappointed in DVH?

We're going to win one and probably multiple in baseball over the next 5-10 years, everyone needs to chill and enjoy being good at something again
