I heard that Little Rock schools hired a new superintendent from Northwest Arkansas and he said that Athletics are a top priority. Politics is what hurt Little Rock public schools.

The little Rocks were in decline long before JLS and the Bert. Also for a long time Arkansas stopped recruiting Texas hard.

You got to have business booming all over Arkansas and bring in more people to live there. St. Louis and Kansas City have plenty of playeras to recruits but was blacklisted until Odom was fired and some administration changes. Drinkwitz is making contacts to those schools that blocked Mizzou and Odom from recruiting top players. That is why Mizzou was struggling all this time. Next year Drinkwitz and staff will be able to recruit much better in Missouri schools and in ESL.

Bert opened his mouth as soon as he got here. He couldn't stop bragging. He was all over social media saying stupid shite. When he went 3-9, he got humbled and later on didn't understand how much more serious the SEC was to the BIG 10.

Petrino didn't have an on or off switch like Saban did. Petrino was more quite and reserved off the field. He didn't have charisma like Saban did when it came to recruiting. That is why I believe that he would struggle to replicate the 10 and 11 seasons.

what happened to his cousin with us a few years back

Can you elaborate on this?

Nvm found it: Bert didn't offer the cousin. Didn't know he and the Oklahoma DB were related. Thanks bert. Losing the top rated kid in state hurts. Especially with as thin the talent is this year.
