our states border yes, however Fayetteville is still 5 hours from Dallas and Lousiana. So practically next door!

also lets not mention not only are you IN Texas but an hour from the most fertile recruiting city in the country. So you should be stockpiling wins an championships right?

oops

I never understood why people talk recruiting smack when they lose on the field. And I'm not limiting this to the TAMU fan in this situation.

Recruiting doesn't matter if you lose. Arky's place in college football, right now, is beating TAMU. They win.

That we've had two shitty coaches is of no moment.

In fact, it simply reinforces whatbim saying. We've been Frann'd and Sherm'd but continue to stockpile talent.

You've been struck with the genius of Petrino but nobody to reload with.

How else do you explain the reality that nobody wants to go there?


AP #5 and #10 say hello with a BCS this decade in the hardest division in college football.

And a location bordering the most talent rich state in the union.


Keep telling us how kids in Texas now, who want to play in the SEC, won't check out Arkansas and LSU because of proximity and multiple games in and around Texas which didn't exist last year. Texas A&M opened up Arkansas' name to Texas again and we thank you.

That's what this about -- your stagnant place in the afterthoughts of recruits. And recruits are of course the most significant indication of where a program stands. After all, they get to pick where to go.


Actually, what is comical is how Texas A&M is bragging about a top 15 class as they are located in the state of Texas while being the 2nd largest school. That is the definition of pathetic. You aren't FSU as much as you want to try.

but high level coaches should flock to A&M because of how great it is right?

it will be funny when we get a bigger name than Sumlin at little ol Arky.

Do you understand that recruiting is the most relevant indicator for future success?

Do you understand that very real concept? Yes, the quality of players can be disguised by shitty coaching. You saw it with Sherm, Fran, and Blake at OU.

If Sunlin doesn't suck as a coach, 2012 will be the only year in which we wonder what the outcome against Arky will be.

You do realize that Arkansas outrecruited A&M with Petrino right?

2008, 2009, 2011 Arkansas > Texas A&M in recruiting.

Probably why we kicked your arse on the field too.

That is what can happen when you're not used to having Top 10 recruiting classes.

Wait, where was Jim Tressel before OSU?

Meyer before UF?

Okay, okay, Petrino before Arky?

Starting small is the natural progression through te business.

I must bid my plebeian Arkies adieu.

I love you all so very much.

Faggies are hilarious, I'm glad we own them so I can just sit and laugh when they speak.

You nailed it for why everyone laughs at TAMU. They are located in Texas 45 mins from the most fertile recruiting ground yet fail year after year.

TAMU can't touch FSU's business model because they can't get out of their own way which is rather funny. There is a reason why they are Aggies.

Florida > FSU in the state of Florida
Texas > Texas A&M in the state of Texas

However, TAMU is nothing like FSU.

You pigs are so Agsessed. How can a discussion started by an Alabama fan talking about Arky end up being about DADDY?

Arky needs to change from the Razorbacks to the Trollbacks.
