Why don't you guys shut up about Arkansas!?! It's getting tiring and asinine!

At least Woodward made cups about an actual victory while he was at A&M.

I don’t mind kids getting a ring for winning the conference, winning a super regional in baseball, or making a final four in basketball. All accomplishments that those players should be proud of and having a ring to memorialize it doesn’t bother me at all.
Agreed for the most part. I would definitely agree with hanging a banner for any of the aforementioned achievements, but getting a "championship ring" when you didn't win a championship at the event your celebrating seems a bit odd and a little participation ribbon-esque

LSU won the SEC in 2011, at least.

Seriously Arkasnas? CWS Rings?

college teams seemingly give out rings for basically everything now. It's dumb but not unique to Arkansas baseball. I remember Ole Miss giving out Peach Bowl participation rings the year they got blown out. "Achievement" rings jumped the shark a long time ago. Probably why you see so many of them for sale on ebay.

there's quite a few of you in this thread completely missing the point that the official Arky twitter account is the one that posted it.

That was also Ross Bjork. He was just ahead of his time with his A&M mentality.

As many times as they have been, this surprises me.
Apparently this isn't a new thing. They've gotten rings for every trip.

Seems like a waste of money to me but whatever. No idea why they'd peacock something like this. The ring looks nice but it's ultimately lame.
