I'm interested in the outlook of this job, considering IMO, it's the second best job in the SEC.

Kevin Keatts or Chris Beard (he coached at Arkansas- little rock) would be fantastic realistic hires.

It’s not an attractive job, so they’ll probably just keep Mike.

I hear John Pelphrey is an up and coming assistant, he could do well there.

Chris Beard isn't leaving Texas Tech for Arkansas

Why would Keatts leave?

We just gave him an extension.

He isn't going anywhere.

Beard isn't going anywhere.

Even if he is the ultimate job hopper.

Suitcase Mike isn't even on the hot seat yet.

Arkansas hasn’t made a sweet 16 in over 20 years. Surely the 2nd best basketball job in the conference wouldn’t have that long of a drought

And, yet, only Florida separated itself from Arkansas in those 20 years. Kentucky, Florida, and Arkansas have actual accomplishments in BB. But don't worry, I'm sure you'll accomplish something some time.

I prefer living in the present. You likely have no memory of Arkansas being even a little relevant in hoops, and that’s OK

When the crowds in BWA are 5-8k next year his arse will get white hot.

Mike will have his first losing season as the head hog next year.

:dwi:


ETA I'm not renewing as are quite a few of my OT friends.

I was there for it all. Unlike you Junior, my team at least has had past success. Your team has had a couple of decent teams in your history that was overshadowed by women's sports. You keep doing you though.

And yet, we still have as many sweet 16 appearances as anyone in the SEC, other than Kentucky. We're just giving the rest of you time to catch up!

That extension isn’t really a deterrent but I agree he will be on the hill in 18/19

Bruce Pearl.. but he'd probably turn them down like Gus Malzahn did.
