Arkansas wanted Kiffin. Ole Miss wanted Kiffin. Kiffin chooses Ole Miss.

Arkansas wanted Drinkwitz. Missouri wanted Drinkwitz. Drinkwitz chooses Missouri.

Arkansas settles for a position coach with no coordinator/head coaching experience.

They got outbid in both instances too, and then go bargain bin shopping to bring in a 60 yr old OL coach.

Serious question here. Arkansas is always puffing their chests out about all this money...when are they going to spend it?

You just paid a guy who was hated at his last stop and had 1 yr at an already built program 4 million.

I wouldn’t gloat to much as your still Missouri.

All the bragging about "Walmart money" and they got outbid by Ole Miss and the 2nd smallest athletics budget in the SEC

See, when you hire a good coach the fans of that team are going to be pissed. Some of the players will be but their too. That’s how this works.

Tell yourself whatever you need to make this seem like a great hire. I’m sure you’ll be burning up the recruiting trail in no time.

Oh, I see. You're actually an Arkansas fan disguised as a Hawaii fan. Yea, I wouldn't claim them either.

That being said, your coach can probably take ours in one area ... bra size. He got dem big ol' titties.

Arkansas got a great deal on Pittman. Only cost them a bag of frozen Tyson chicken nuggets and a bottle of Old Crow.

Missouri folks are actively trying to talk themselves in to believing this one is true for whatever reason.

Drinkwitz coached HS football an hour away from Fayetteville. If we wanted him, we would've hired him.

Sorry you had to settle between Blake Anderson and Eli Drinkwitz and had to borrow money from the university to overpay for him.

You can say that again. They've been in the basement for a while now and after a brief visit, we are now quickly racing up the stairs while they diddle their cousins next to the freezer.

Its all good, plenty of Arkansas got fans worked up over the Kiffin stuff. I have a hard time believing they actually think Drinkwitz at 4M is a good idea but time will tell.
