We weren’t going any higher on Lanes salary and a couple BOT members were worried about his off the field behavior and him bouncing at first good job that offers like he will do at OM.

Also nobody is upset about Lane. He currently has the 40+ ranked recruiting class so either he is taking a page out of Mullens book or recruiting like a guy that doesn’t plan on being around long at OM

Think both schools are thrilled with their current coaches

I’d advise OM fans go go find the podcast from Lane down in Miami two months ago and tell me you aren’t worried after listening to it. It was so bad he had to come back on and apologize

We got the better coach, and he will stay at Arkansas longer than Kiffin will stay at Ole Miss.

Sorry if fans pointing out the truth about your hired gun hits home so hard.

Actually, not sorry.

I mean at least he’s not running the program in to the ground like Drink is doing in Columbia. But congrats on getting your 4th choice at least.


Lol, outrecruiting Titboss by a significant margin and will have a better 2 year record at the end of the year.

Hey, at least you know your AD isn’t dumb because he went after Drink before settling on Titboss

So about the ban bet or $500 bet on this years Arkansas vs Mizzou.
We can exchange Venmo
Why did you run from that? Offer is still there.

Hogs will be -20+ at home if Mizzou is catching 8.5 against the worst Florida team in the last 20 years

Surely you are placing a large amount on Mizzou +8.5 this weekend.

Harry has Mizzous program as bad as it’s ever been. Also you are a few spots ahead of us in recruiting and Harry has shown he doesn’t know how to work the transfer portal unlike Pittman.
Should be easy for Harry to offer early PT in this class. One more 5 win season next year which is coming and recruits will see right through it
Go start a thread with Vandy and South Carolina where you belong right now

JQ isn’t going to do that. He doesn’t actually believe what he is typing.

The inferiority complex in the Ole Miss fanbase is pretty severe. I'm actually embarrassed that Arkansas ever actually considered bringing the likes of Kiffin to Fayetteville...but we were honestly pretty desperate at that time. I

Seems like Toddy has some little man issues and attempting to create drama. Yes, Kiffin was one of our options for HC, but he also proved exactly why many Hog fans had reservations about him. Lack of integrity.

We were willing to hold our nose for Petrino, so we would have done the same with Lane. He's a really good coach with zero moral compass.

We aren't bitching about the 1 PT win OM lucked into this year. Congrats. The only issue we have with the 7 TO game was it gave a slow white kid a scholly, but I'm pretty sure it still counts as a win.

Pittman fits what Arkansas can/will do with a program, given the disastrous run of the prior 3 coaches. Kiffin represents what OM is willing to do to make OM remotely relevant. Maybe he will beofe he leaves, but it hasn't happened yet.

You sure? Only one of them has a winning record at their current school.

If this worries Arky then it shows that Yuracheck is weak. Good coaches get calls. It's up to the AD to make their current situation better than the next.

Lol, we own your arse and will continue to do so.

Funny thing is that you don’t believe any of that. You know we will beat you. Drink vs Odom is a huge mismatch after all. And after this year the talent gap only widens.

Hahahahhaa still running from the bet.

Yea Odom who has a top 35 defense in year two vs an Offense that is ranked in the 100s

Mhahahahaha lay off the crack buddy

Scared to place a $500 bet. Go ask your mom or dad for a loaN

Arkansas would have one loss with your cupcake schedule .

Boston college is thankful Mizzou will help them make a bowl game this year

I know this is overused on this board but you Arkansas fans seem scared.
Is it overused or are Ole Miss fans in denial about the fact that he's been coaching since 1997 and has only stayed at a school longer than 3 years once? (Head coach at USC for 4 years)

Me thinks it's the latter.

He used y’all to try to leverage more money out of Arkansas and we told him to frick off and he got stuck with you.

This is such convoluted logic it's actually uncomfortable for me to read. Sorry you're so upset after all this time.

Do you not know how sports agents do their jobs, especially agents like Sexton? It's not convoluted at all. It literally happens every year.

I doubt any would make that trade now, but would that have been the case when the respective hires were made?


Kiffin was my #1, but it's true that no Arkansas fans (or at least very few) would take him over Pittman right now. Pittman's cultural fit is too good, the issue was whether he could handle being a head coach. Seems like he's doing a pretty good job but at the same time isn't a threat to leave us

JesusQuintana,

You won't be owning us anymore. Not after this year cause we'll be coming after you hard and you know it!

He don’t go after Drink.

Interviewed him and said this guy is not ready and needs testosterone injections.

I'm interested in a ban bet with any Arky fan who wants one. Of course, when we beat you for the 6th year in a row none of you toothless fricks will be around anyway, so it's 6 in one hand, half dozen in another.

Offered and turned down. Which was getting very familiar to him at that point. That’s why he pivoted to a guy who has never even been a coordinator because he knew he wouldn’t get turned down again.

Faurot fodder,

Why are you so confident you'll beat us? Just because of the last few years? I got news for you, it'll be ugly and Mizzou will come out with the loss!
