Arkansas doesn't get any Walmart money.

Unless they are for bike trails.

Why isn't Arkansas getting any top high school or portal players?

Probably because they don't want to play for a shitty football program unless they are given an outrageous NIL number which Arkansas either doesn't have or want to give.

Isn’t jerruh an alum as well?

They must not care that much about arky football for whatever reason. They could be a sleeping giant because the untapped resources are there

It's pretty much the same everywhere.

Everyone assumes Uber wealthy SEC alums
are all like Jimmy Rane (Yella Wood Fatass) but guys like him are the exception.

Arkansas big money folks aren't as nearly business savvy or cunning as the rest of the SEC when it comes to winning at all costs.

For example Ole Miss has already raised 15 or so million dollars in NIL.

Arkansas? Well they had an NIL but no one knew it existed and so that was done away with a new one announced back in November.

So tell me which one of these two programs care more?

The SEC has a bunch of J.R. Ewings and Arkansas has....um....Mr Bean.

Jerry is too busy destroying the cowboys to be worried about Arkansas.

Aggies were able to sign the #1 class under jimbo…not a small feat for a program with no championship history or track record. It could’ve worked out for them if jimbo didn’t suck so bad…it still could work out under elko.

Imagine if arky did the same and signed the #1 class? That buzz would be ridic

Arkansas doesn’t have that kind of money coming in. Just because there are rich people in the state doesn’t mean they care about sports.

They don't have any trouble getting top recruits/transfers in Bball with NIL.


Only really takes 2 players max to reverse your fortunes in bball tho. Can throw lots of money at just a few players and it can pay off huge. Not like that in fb. Need 20+

I'm not sure that is accurate. I personally think their NIL collective isn't that organized because they haven't had to use it as much as most of college football to get or stay competitive.

They have great bike paths and hiking trails. Money well spent.

Don't forget about the 4 billion dollars that Alice Walton spent on the Crystal Bridges Museum.
