When is the last time A&M was relevant in college football? They are in a state sharing players with 4 different teams. They get completely owned by Texas in every possible manner.

Don't really HAVE to be in a state with tons of talent to recruit those states. What REALLY helps us recruit in Texas is beating Aggie every time we play them in Arlington.


You act as if you outrecruited us in Texas. We will whip you for Texas kids head to head almost every time. Petrino outcoached Sherman. He didn't outrecruit him.

Obviously you guys just showed the world how attractive your job is with that groundbreaking hire.


Every opening in the country practically wanted Sherman. We made a run at Chris Petersen and missed but who hasn't?

Are you talking about your spirit fingers? Because Texas A&M only has female cheerleaders and only for competition. Yell Boys are at the game. No toe touches, no liberties, no pikes. Just 30,000 students unified in yelling

Doesn't mean we don't have $$$ and recruits. I think you misunderstand what this list is

I don't dislike Arkansas. Just some of your fans. I'm not a fan of Petrino but that doesn't matter.

LSU should be the #2 SEC team behind UF.

Results on the field suggest we have better players than you. And it's been that way for 3 years now. That tells me that we have better recruits. Rivals' $30k/year "evaluators" aren't as awesome as some of you like to think.

Really (Sherman)? Every school? LOL.

So your backup plan was an unproven spread HC that most of you aren't happy about? A&M! A&M! Obviously such an awesome, top 13 job ignored those calls from more qualified, proven coaches.

You must be unfamiliar with our current and near future facility upgrades. $100's of millions are being spent...to add on to facilities that are already superior to Aggie.

You don't have female cheerleaders. You have a dance team, but they don't touch football. You know. The topic at hand.

You DO have milk men jacking off the air. Congrats.

A&M pays less, wins less, and their program is monetarily worth less than Arkansas and a few other schools not ranked above them.

If A&M is a sleeping giant, that motherfricker is in a coma.

But don't try and pretend that Arkansas is a better job than Texas A&M. We will outrecruit you with mustard stains on our shirts. And that's what a prospective coach wants. Recruits, facilities, budget, fan support. We have all of those in spades.


If only this record wasn't so bad I'd agree with you.

Arkansas vs TAMU Series 41-23.

If Oklahoma State which almost the same distance to Dallas as Arkansas is in the top 25 with a MUCH worse program history, this list is whack.

As pointed out earlier. Arkansas, LSU and Nebraska do not share in-state talent and surrounded by talent out-side of their state.

Nebraska just has a dominate history and LSU has better in-state recruiting.

And yet we are routinely thought of as superior to your school. Maybe it's because we have the 2nd most conference championships of any SEC school. Of course that's largely irrelevant except for Arkansas

1) I meant Sumlin. ASU, Illinois and UCLA all offered him and he was on the UNC short list.

2) don't tell me what we do and don't have. We have competition cheerleaders. They go to no games. Only compete. A dance team is at the basketball games

3) what does Rivals have to do with this? We target the same player and they choose Aggie over Arky. Happens all the time. Petrino is a better coach than Sherman. He won with lesser talent. We had an 18 point lead this year and were outcoached and had bad breaks. shite happens.

I think you draft off of Texas' reputation.

We just know you better than the rest of the SEC and so we have a right-sized opinion of TAMU.

Oklahoma is a much better job. This list sucks.


Oklahoma is a top 5 Job. It's literally almost in the state of Texas and has great history. They almost don't need any in-state talent while dominating Northern Texas.

You don't have cheerleaders for football games that aren't male. I apologize, polly anna.

I remember how excited you guys were when you got them....less than 10 years ago, right? Another 100 years and you might see the allure of placing beautiful women at other sporting events!

If anyone can remotely talk smack to TAMU it's Arkansas. The series is dominated by us and we have over 100's years together.
