I motion to let Arkansas keep theirs

Arkansas should be the ONLY school allowed to roster former pros. In fact, each power conference should select a bottom feeder program from each individual sport that can have these kind of players. For example, in the SEC...

Football: Hogs
Basketball: USCe
Baseball: Mizzou

The answer is money. Y'all have lots of it, underperforming athletes want all of it; y'all give it to them, declare yourselves recruiting national champs. Entitles newly rich athletes don't play hard or well; Aggy finishes 8-4 which is good enough for gay farmers and whatnot to send more $$

repeat process since 1939

I knew Aggy liked to celebrate in September, but they've done moved it up into August!

Jonesboro Golden Hurricanes..... that's ASU's alternate name

When I meet someone from Bama my first question goes something like this:

Can I get some extra salt with those fries please?

And accents, and bbq, and cultures, and time zones, and economies, and terrain, and expectations for your teams..

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.

North Texas didn't scare anyone either...... I'm scared about EVERY game

Try to win a couple games so you don't frick up everyone else's strength of schedule.

Gladly. Maybe we can start with the Bulldogs

Looking at you Georgia.

I'm thinking some of the huge NIL$$ may be making its way into the hands of local law enforcement for winks and nods.

The lack of recruiting in state talent and comments did not endear him to the state.

What sealed the deal, however, was campaigning for Jesse Helms. It wasn't just Helms leading the fight against MLK Jr. day, though I am hard pressed to think of something back then that would have driven away young Black athletes faster than that. Rather it was that Holtz doing such an action heavily implied that the University of Arkansas was endorsing Helms.

People have a hard time remembering just how much raw political power Broyles effectively wielded in Arkansas back then. Bill Clinton called Broyles the most powerful man in the state for a reason. Broyles, and before him Barnhill, had built a system based one state, one football team.

You didn't comment on political issues because it might offend a group in state, you took your smiling pictures with the Governor, and that was that. To make matters worse, Helms was a devoted Republican. As hard as it is to believe now back then the Republican party in Arkansas was so small it was joked they had their state convention at a corner booth in Denny's. Democrats controlled everything, and I do mean everything.

Holtz didn't just touch the third rail of Arkansas politics, he took a giant whiz on it.

Nailed it

No Arkansas. List is invalid
