May be a stupib question, but how many buyouts are we paying right now? Are we still paying Chad? Seems like that total keeps rising.
Well, shit...

If Lashlee is on Dork at Mizzou's level in terms of being a Gus clone then I'm not a huge fan but we'll at least give him a 2 year pass. Personally I bet he passes on the job...he's got it pretty good at SMU in a soft ACC where the path to a playoff is much easier. The only way you would take the Arkansas gig is you want to retire at 55 48 and have plenty of buyout money to live off of the rest of your days. 

We literally have fools on Youtube talking about Dowell Loggains as a serious candidate.

Quote from: DirkPiggler on Sep 28, 2025, 01:30 PMComparing Lashlee to Morris is just straight up retarded.  Not Forrest Gump "a little slow" either.   

The only thing they really have in common is that they have both coached SMU, with the exception that only one of them actually won there.  And he did so in a much tougher league where he probably had the 10th best roster. 

Alex Golesh at USF is my top pick, but Lashlee wouldn't be terrible.  Especially if he could motivate the Six Flags over Jesus crowd to unass some significant NIL funds. 

Golesh would be a good one, but I'm willing to bet HY has never heard of him.

chad got his a few years back. assuming the talking heads are right, it looks like a guy(s) stepped up and handled sam's.

Our fans are mostly morons who only know people that have Arkansas ties.

I'm sure there is an embarrassing number ready to call into drive time sports suggesting Jimmy Johnson come home.

Sam is the only buyout we're paying and its small compared to others.

Not all people are looking for the easiest path and we could easily triple his SMU salary.

Not too late to get Mike Anderson in here to be the DC...the players will be taught to play hard and to guard them gettin off the bus.

On the plus side, you dont see too many "shame on Arkansas" takes after this.

Everybody hyped us up as a darkhorse team so firing the coach after 3 straight losses (including a blowout at home) is more than justifiable.

People with short memories. Maybe that's a little petty. I wouldn't want to artificially shrink the pool of candidates.

Put Mike in charge of recruiting. He will find us a ton of "athletes" with no appreciable skill for the sport they are playing.
