I'm not sure what level of butthurt you need to come to that conclusion considering I simply meant I follow what I believe to be right or wrong even if it might not be the easiest. Seems like it shouldn't be too difficult to understand in the context of people telling me I wouldn't and that I would just accept whatever given.

But ok.

And that's why we'll get GJ Kinne or Jeff Traylor as our next coach, or go get a shitty retread like Odom who is sucking some major booster dick behind closed doors lobbying for the job.

Waltons don't give a damn about Arkansas sports. They suck at the at the big three sports themselves and they have to go with bikes because that is what narcissists do.

Or get drunk, go driving, hit someone, build a multi-billion dollar museum of American art and then all but proclaim oneself anointed.

I thought SEC schools would be a class above this. Very Big Twelvish.

What a shitty thing to happen.

I love my Razorbacks (most of the time). But I agree. Corporate logos on college fields sucks. It's trashy IMO.

First smart NIL move I've seen out of Arkansas. Should have been done years ago.

We gripe about not having money, gripe when we get it.

Getting Wal-Mart and Tyson on board with Arkansas athletics is the smartest thing that the UA athletic department could do. Both will contribute to NIL

Not the Waltons.

Bike trails, bike trails, bike trails, bike trails and more bike trails.

Did I mention bike trails?

The Walton’s have given a great deal of money towards education in Arkansas, Bud Walton helped finance our basketball arena and they have contributed towards our track program.

They just haven’t seemed to be interested in football. They do much more than bike trails.

They don't have to put their name on the field to give NIL deals.

Randal Tyson track center.

The Hunts have given much more towards basketball.

The children of Sam Walton do not care for Arkansas sports.

Alice Walton spent 4 billion of her own money on an art museum.

Tom and Steuart Walton have spent 75 million in the area in an effort to make Bentonville the bike trail capital of the world.

None of that helps Arkansas in football.

In 2002 they gave 300 million to the university system, but that was academics.

As I said, apparently they don’t care for football. You act like bike trails and such is all they do. So what if they don’t care about sports.

I don't give Alabama money, so that's a bit impossible. If I did give them money, then I would let them know beforehand my displeasure.


You watching them helps with the ratings which the university gets money for its TV deal. If enough of you don’t watch, then it may get their attention. Or better yet, just don’t show up to the games.

Also do you own any Alabama apparel? I know most Bama fans are bandwagon fans, but to openly admit it, it definitely a choice.

So you’re admitting to being a bandwagon fan or Nick Saban fan?
