Why Does Arkansas Success Never Garner Any National Buzz?

Any time a non-powerhouse SEC athletic program has success, it gains a lot of national buzz.
Vandy under Franklin
Ole Miss under Freeze and Lane
MSU under Mullen, Kent
Kentucky/Stoops
Mizzou's first couple years
Hell...even A&M gained some national attention under Manziel
But, regardless the sport or level of success, you only hear about Arkansas from Arkansas fans.
Why can every SEC program get attention on a national scale except Arkansas?

We got our share of attention this last season, it was nice considering we wandered in the wilderness for so long, heck we couldn’t even beat aggy we were that damn bad.

It's very surprising quite honestly. You'd think they would be talked about more.

You must be young. None of these gained the kind of national attention we had under Petrino pre-motorcycle wreck.
Definitely not post wreck either.

This is a sad troll attempt.
You heard about Arkansas all the time during the two legit Petrino years and well I know you don’t follow basketball but we get some of the best basketball buzz out there

Nobody knows where Arkansas is…kinda like Missouri. 98% of high school graduates couldn’t accurately place Arkansas (or Missouri) in a blank map.
