If so, you're probably the one to run the best and worst poster tourneys this year. Duddley has summer school classes, so he's too busy. If anyone has experience rigging elections or stuffing ballot boxes, please submit your qualifications here.


I'd think most of Poli Board fits that criteria.

Every time we start to build something it collapses. Nutt way overstays his welcome. Petrino ruins everything for his side piece. Bert seems to be building a solid foundation and then his alcoholism destroys it. Pittman steps in as an emergency hire and overstays his welcome.

I won’t be able to relax/enjoy the season until after week 3. Win or lose I’m just ready for that bullshite to be over with


The benefit of being an Arkansas fan staring down the barrel of yet another major rebuild. Anything beyond beating North Alabama is playing with house money this season.

I think he's a very good coach, but under the NIL I think sustaining excellence is going to be a lot more difficult.

Morning folks.
Is it just me or is this off season even worse than usual?

In his defense Trump didn't have a choice after the Islamic Republic of Japan attacked. His own words mind you.

That's scary. I mean Muslims make up .3% of the Japanese population and they've taken over the government.

Jokes aside, we'll hit some targets in Iran, they'll Shaheed anything we have left that's close to them into oblivion (we suck at drone warfare defense), everyone will pay more at the gas pumps, some folks will get rich off oil prices, and then Trump will declare peace again.
Have you seen our schedule? While we are trying to pull off a rebuild with basically an entirely new team?

Everyone but North Alabama scares us and we're nervous about them. We could be tremendously improved and still have a horrible record.
61 for Arkansas may be overly generous. Or it might be the team is greatly improved this year. The problem is that with our schedule this year we could really show strong signs of improvement and still finish with a terrible record.

I see this has devolved into the usual Alabama throwing a hissy fit that Arkansas went undefeated in 1964 while the Tide lost to a team that the Hogs beat. We are willing to let you claim your '64 title, you can let us claim ours without having a stroke.

But, to move past that, we should be celebrating that the SEC, as a whole, has an impressive amount of national titles, and that is without gaming the system like Stanford where they play every single sport the NCAA recognizes even if only a handful of other schools compete.

As for Track, Arkansas winning so many national titles while producing so few individual Olympic gold medalists shows the strength of the team build concept. Score points everywhere and pull away for a win. McDonnell hit on a winning formula that a lot of programs have copied with great success.

Utah is in the Big12 not the Big10


My bad.
As odd as it sounds yes, and they were in the running for the Big 10 title last year. Naturally, during a major rebuild, we play them on the road this season.

University of Arkansas (34,161)


Fairly impressive when you consider the campus is crowded onto one mountain top and surrounded by a rapidly developing Fayetteville.

The state as a whole is odd when it comes to higher education. You can't turn around without running into a college or small university.
None of them. If I like a song that most folks don't I couldn't give a rat's arse. I'm too old and too cantankerous to be embarrassed by what I like.

Okay, skinny dipping in the public pool is sort of a guilty pleasure I will admit.

Bama is down real bad if they are worried about our awful football program


When a program goes down, they down fast. Next year they'll be talking trash to UAB or South Alabama.
Believe it or not the offside rule was added to increase scoring.

Before it was added teams would park a couple of players right in front of the other team's goal. The other team, not surprisingly, would park more defensive players back there. So the entire game consisted of both teams lobbing deep passes into the box, which the defense almost always won. Lots and lots of 0-0 games.

The offside rule opened up the entire field and made the game more exciting for the fans.
Coach O was who he was. In a way that's admirable. Warts and all he wasn't trying to corporate speak.

Houston Nutt at Arkansas had 2 players back to back that saved his arse...

First Matt Jones, then Darren McFadden


As soon as I saw the title of this thread I hopped on to type the exact same thing. :cheers:
I didn't hate him but I miss Coach O blundering along the sidelines. And I don't say that as an insult. We need more coaches that look like they'd kill and eat the opposing HC during the post game handshake.
