The NEXT Coach

[buff2.0]

No way Lanning turns down Alabama and then moves to Arkansas two years later.  For one, even if we came up with $20MM per year and equivalent NIL I think Nike would match it to keep him.

Or no way he does that and then moves to Arkansas while LSU and Florida are both open.

[PorkyPig]

Anyway, something to talk about until we hire the Memphis coach Barry Lunney, Jr.

Well, to be fair, LSU is on the way to hiring the Grambling coach or the guy at Airline High in Shreveport.  Probably all they are going to be able to afford and their dumpster has 50 foot flames shooting out of the top of it right now.

Don't misunderstand...I'd love to be wrong here.  Lanning would be at the top of my wish list if he had any interest at all in our job.

wouldn't be surprised if it's none of the guys being mentioned. if it's not petrino, then some p4 coach out of left field, like bert was.

I know pessimism is sort of our style around here and I know there isn't much to be excited about with our program lately but let me step back from that for a moment.

In the age of NIL, recruiting advantages and footprints and all that mean very little.  Coaching still matters more than anything and then it is just cash.  Now we all know that at the top end, Arkansas has money that most schools can't match.  It's that so far, it hasn't been motivated to get involved.  But since the last coaching search a lot has changed.  Indiana has never been any good in any era.  They hired the right coach and spent the money and here they are.  Eleven months ago, we drubbed Texas Tech.  That game motivated ONE billionaire booster to buy them a team and they are going to make the playoffs this year.  And we've suffered a lot of humiliation.

Are the reports of us wanting to spend the money now true?  Has the Coach Cal experience, Indiana, and Texas Tech shown us the way?  If so, it can happen here.

Idk if true, but I heard from someone at least mildly credible Rob Walton is going to get involved. Same person told me long-term plan is to relocate the Broncos to NWA.

[DirkPiggler]

I'd heard McMillon was involved, but not any actual Waltons.

Sam M. Walton Razorback Stadium has a nice ring to it. Rob should have done that years ago.

He better hurry cause that guy is 81 years old.

I do wonder if they'd like to get out of Denver. It's a democrat shithole that's only going to get worse.

Seems like these things coincide with refusal to fund a new stadium. Current one was built in 01 so...

Thats not happening they just announced the new stadium location and then submitted plans this week for the project at Burnham Yard which is supposedly gonna be privately funded.

[bigpig]

If anything, they would move to St. Louis.

Those are initial plans and nowhere near finalized. $140mm in public investment just for surrounding infra.

Zero chance. Place is beyond dead.

[Usafhawg]

So somebody actually believes the Denver Broncos are moving to NWA?

Was this leaked from the Lake Hamilton SCIF?
