Based on this comment, I’m gonna guess you’re working on your 7th grade History project? Because, clearly, you know little of Razorback football program history.

Eli Drinkwitz grew up in Arkansas, so Midwest/ Southwest. Arkansas is in the same category as Oklahoma

You need to slow down on the moonshine hillbilly.

Huh? Arkansas is not in the same category as Oklahoma?! Oklahoma was Indian Territory when the Civil War broke out.
Arkansas was the 9th state to secede, before Tennessee and North Carolina and sits solidly below and within the Mason Dixon line. Explain to me how Arkansas can border Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee and be in the Midwest?
Arkansas was primarily settled by people moving west from the Carolinas, Alabama , GA and other Southern states due East. They were attracted to the states’ fertile soil for cotton production.
But forget the litany of documented letters written from that period back East to family lauding the rich soil and great cotton production found.
So, since Arkansas seceded before TN and NC that must make us more Southern than those two states , huh?

Bordering something doesn't make you the same. Texas borders Mexico for 1300 miles, but that doesn't mean they share the same beliefs, cultural values, etc. Arkansas is culturally (and geographically) a midwestern/ southwestern state. Far more in common with Oklahoma or Missouri than any of the states you tried to compare yourself to

AN OL coach that was all he did for 35 years is now the head coach! He may or may not succeed as the head coach of Arkansas.

Let me guess, you have been to the Ozarks and nowhere else. The whole 3/4 or so of the state along and below I-40 and along the Mississippi to Missouri very much has more on common with northern Louisiana and Mississippi than Oklahoma or Missouri (other than the first 40 miles of Missouri which honestly is nothing like the majority of the state (population wise).

Kiffin was born in Nebraska and graduated high school in Minnesota. Not Southern but I don't think he qualifies as a Westerner either.

Isn’t Jimbo from WV, along with Saban?
Posted on 2/17/20 at 6:16 am to Harry Rex Vonner
Will give Saban a pass as he is from lower W. Va.

Mullen and Leach are both Trump supporters, so they could probably be considered "honorary southerners." At the very least, I wouldn't call Mullen a "new england elitist."
