This is true.

Arkansas has one advantage over MSU and Ole Miss, being that it's the only game in town. That is where it ends, however.

Absolutely. In a mountain west or biggish 12 they could likely win a conference game.

So, they should go back there or to the current teams that were there in a different conference that is not the SEC.

Oh the irony in this post ^. You mean like Miss State racking up those 8 wins in the 2010's?

Arkansas produces like one 4 star recruit every year. Doesn’t seem like a recipe for success.

I don't know but I guess Fayetteville is one of the fastest growing small cities in the nation. Has been voted one of the best places to live and is very business friendly. The scenery and other surrounding areas are just beautiful. Plenty of outdoor activities to do. You have Dickson Street if a recruit wants to get shite faced then that is the place to be. Plenty of things to do for recruits and future players. Also we are not located in the ghetto unlike some school campuses.
Only thing missing is the winning part.

I dont disagree, our in state talent hurts us, or more so the lack of talent.
We have had plenty of 4* out of state.
Hell our QB room has been stacked with 4* QBs since Bert. Crazy our best QBs since then were the Allen brothers from Fayetteville.
We need to start recruiting the 3/4* tailings of Lousiana tbh and we just got a stud from there.
Perfectly laid out in this article.
I also hope Pittman goes hard on the states/schools he was recruiting while at Georgia.

No, they’re not and it’s very obvious why

Please tell us. We were 5/5 with LSU just a couple seasons ago.

This is what triggers you. You've had to live through those
State wins in the 2010s. The 2020s aren't going to go much better for you, either.

I'm not triggered, I'm presenting facts. You said Arkansas had easy wins in the 10s and 20s. You really want me to pull up States scheduling from the 2010s?
Tell me which post I've made itt that is incorrect or not factual instead of telling me im triggered;)

For starters, You need a talent rich state of blue chippers...Arkansas isn’t one. Add the fact they are surrounded by states that are, with major programs. There’s a big difference between LSU being a sleeping giant and Arkansas.
As far as your 5/5 couple a seasons ago
Congrats on the seasons from 07-16 Lol

We have a lot of underdeveloped players in the Little Rock Metro. Some don't even play. Pittman will try to help rebuild the Little Rock high schools and will get these recruits more looks.

You don't necessary have to be in a state full of talent. You only need to sign 25 players a year in the SEC. Arkansas is still surrounded by states with a lot of talent. Go out and scout who you want, evaluate the recruit and if he is good enough then let him commit. It is all a bout opinions and assumptions anyway. Make bad guesses on a class then it will show on the field.

Yes, LR has not been good for us. I hope he does because there are some great athletes/potential down there.
