As everybody knows, the most important thing is SEC sports.
Our donors always step up to give us the finest sports facilities.

but big time recruits are not impressed.

I went to ITT Tech in L.R. You can take my negative earnings off the list.

You Arkansas fans can correct me but didnt a female member of the Walton family get in trouble for plagiarism at the University of Missiouri four or five years ago, or did I just imagine those facts?

Every family can have a black sheep can they not? regardless that doesn't take away from the depth of her pockets.

How?
By driving up prices and reducing quality of services. Unions are determined to get into Wal Mart.

when was wal mart ever known for quality of service?
Posted on 7/21/09 at 12:35 pm to Bert Lyons 716
why should a union even be remotely near Walmart. Do they want to be considered skilled labor in there or something?

Alice Walton is a drunk and has been known to offer cash bribes to Law Enforcement and one of the children did in fact get hammered for something at Mizzou. By the way, a Walton family member also paid for the Mizzou Basketball arena. That kinda hurt my feelings.
Regardless, if I had billions upon billions and almost 6% of all US retail sales went to my family I would probably be a lazy snot that bribed people too.

Didn't Sam Walton go to Missouri?

But he loved him some Razorbacks

Who is Bud Walton? Why is Arkansas' basketball arena named after him?
I looked it up. He is Sam Walton's brother. I knew Sam Walton founded Wal Mart, but I had never heard much about Bud Walton

Making sense now?
Neither one of your arguments makes any sense but are you saying that UA is an authorized user to the Walton family checking account? So, the president of UA can take out money as needed? Really? Not metaphorically, but really?

Well I guess that disqualifies Arkansas then.

And it isn't even close.
If you were to go by endowment-
1. Vanderbilt- $2.9 billion
2. Florida- $1.250 billion
3. Tennessee- $887 million
4. Arkansas- $876.8 million
5. Alabama- $835,790,255
6. Kentucky- $831.8 million
7. LSU- $656.7 million
8. Georgia- $618.8 million
9. Ole Miss- $472 million
10. South Carolina- $438.5 million
11. Auburn- $421 million
12. Mississippi State- $350.5 million.
As far as athletic donors- we have a few deep pockets. Obviously not as deep as the Waltons, but pretty deep, none the less.
EJ Nutter is the president of Acme. He contributed a good deal of the money used to build Nutter Field House. Paul Orberson founded Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing.Seth Hancock is a prominent horseman, and contributed over a million dollars at once to expand Nutter.
There are many more, but they are hard to track down.

If Walton was as big a patron as the Hog fans would have us believe, UA would have the largest endowment in the SEC by far.
