FSU, Miami, Clemson, Georgia Tech, OU, OSU, tu, UNC, Virginia Tech.

All of these teams would either expand footprint, have more fans, have more national relevance, but would all definitely provide more value than Arkansas.

Virginia Tech and North Carolina State because those states have much bigger populations for us to sell the SEC Network into than Arkansas


So NC state in the heart of ACC and Duke and Tarheel country would be a good market? You honestly think people would tune in to watch NC State play Bama or LSU? Sir, I think you have gone into full retard. I gave you Florida State and not by very much at that. But what you just argued propbably means we could just get rid of LSU as well and put in NC State or Vtech.

Great description for a good portion of the Arkansas fanbase. It's awful IMO.

I would call you a fricking idiot for even mentioning half those teams. The fact that you put GaTech and Clemson has already brought shame on you. The rest of those teams might I add would all be better options than TAMU as well you fricking idiot so go away.

The most popular Razorback forum on the internet has some post about LSU on the front page 9 out of 10 times you pull it up. I think you have the obsession finger pointed the wrong direction.

Meh, I'm not that worried about it. Being from Dallas, I know lots of Arkansas folks and love them in the SEC. I just don't think your perceived value is as anywhere nearly as high as you think it is.

I really want to know if you are serious with GaTech and Clemson. In what fricking world would that even be close to a good trade? In terms of money in, money paid out, facilities or national exposure. You should go ahead and just include Miami and Southern Miss

While I don't agree with GT, Clemson is definitely a more nationally recognized program than Arkansas.

I'm fairly well traveled, specially in B1G country. Clemson and other ACC teams never come up, even Free Shoe U. They are has-beens.

When Arkansas is discussed, our history in both the SWC and the SEC is respected. ON the otherhand, I am usually discussing college football with knowledgeable fans, not a bunch of college kids or recent grads on a message board.

No I wasn't all too serious, but if they were in the SEC for the last 20 years, their facilities wouldn't be any different than yours, and they would have comparable success. Again, I just think your perceived value is higher than actual value.

Georgia tech gets the atl market locked up. Which is more than Arkansas can say.

On what stage? I don't see Clemson with anymore exposure than Arkansas when both are winning. We add in the big 3 and it's not even a race.

Well I am very well traveled and have recently lived in ACC, SEC, B12, and P12 country. Based on my observations, Arkansas is considered a Johnny come lately with a short shelf life. Sorry but that is just the perception. Clemson has been relevant for a longer period with some form of sustained success.

Arkansas has more success than those programs.

Arkansas sells more merch and makes more money than all of these programs.

Your informal survey of fan perception means dick.
