The premise of the OP is non sequitur. In basketball would you fire a coach who consistently made the elite 8 with no title?
Maybe at Kansas Duke or NC etc but the 99% not represented no chance.

So glad we kept Bianco instead of going after either of these guys.

He has 10 more CWS appearances to go to match Martin.

Until he drops hitting coach Nate Thompson then it is a guarantee he will not win it. 2018, 2019, 2021supers and 2022 CWS appearances were all a result of poor hitting at the plate. During those seasons, Arkansas was held scoreless three times in the CWS. These predictable bats are a problem. Boom or bust approach.

Hog fans take things for granted when it comes to the CWS. It is NEVER a guarantee that DVH will ever make it back and certainly when it comes to the finals again. This is why 2018 was so devastating because it is rare to make those appearances here.

Not his fault but looking at historically the times Arkansas has made the CWS finals, it might as well be a once in a life opportunity.

If Bianco wins it then I'm sure you would still keep him over DVH.

Mark Richt of SEC baseball. Close but no cigar.

He is in his 60s and the clock is ticking.

Same here. DVH needs to win one and no excuse why he can't do so here.

DVH is an enigma. I watch his teams look completely unprepared to make a postseason run all year. Then they somehow do it and I get pissed when they revert back to looking hapless in Omaha.

Winning a championship in baseball isn’t like football or even basketball. There’s so much more luck and momentum that goes into it.
Arkansas was far and away the most accomplished team last year and Tennessee was even more dominant this year. Neither made it to Omaha.

I’m old enough to remember that Drewbie guys only response like 10 years ago was “We go to Omaha”
Hahaha. Now we play for a title after shoving our cocks down their throats in… you guessed it…. “Omaha”

Don’t celebrate yet. Nobody gives you any credit for being the runner up in the CWS. They should but as an Arkansas fan I can tell you nobody will care unless you win it all. Hell we’re getting mocked on this board right now for finishing 3rd.
And if you do win, you better start a dynasty because if you don’t follow it up well you’re a flash in the pan program and you’ll get hammered. Basically in the world of sports fan dialogue, you’re Nick Saban or you’re a joke.

I love this thread so much

That is unfortunate because a team won it a few years ago that you couldn't find on a map and no pot to piss in as far as facilities are concerned but Arkansas with all these bells and whistles can't win it.

The mockery comes from all fans on here. It goes all way back to that foul ball. Until Arkansas wins it then get used to the mockery.

That team wasn't as good as this team is, take Kopps out then they have an average season.
Posted on 6/24/22 at 7:13 am to beaverfever
Dude no one gives you credit for even winning it. It lasts all but 7 minutes on national television and then it’s over. If it weren’t for them reminding everyone they did it, I would have forgotten MSU even won it less than a year ago. No one gives a frick
