I insta-raged specifically about Fountain and Sowders until I caught my breath and I read the header realized it was a troll.

Sad thing is, it would not surprise me if this happened.

Doubtful with Sowders.

It's probably not lost on Silverfield that his Memphis team not only held their own physically against us but out-muscled us in the 2nd half, including humiliating us on the game sealing last carry.

Underappreciated.

Well done!

Yeah I'm pretty sure he totally misread that list.   Memphis was #2 in NIL in the AAC this year.
I'm on smoko, so leave me alone.

Jesus.  It's a mixture between Chad Morris and Sam Pittman.  Hammer down!  Turn that jukebox on!  Where Larry?

Tom Mars has been cooking Yurachek while simultaneously supporting the Silverfield hire.

He's doing a good job of threading the needle we all should — supporting our new coach and finding optimism in his track record while eviscerating Yurachek for being the weak, feckless, ineffectual chud he is and always has been.

Someone needs to break this thread down by the stages of grief.


We're getting to acceptance faster than I expected, but that's probably a good thing.

It's beautiful. People are finally starting to dial it up. HY is a fucking chump and regardless of how the basketball team does he needs to be run the fuck off. I do realize he's just the messenger...the real problem is up higher than him but most of those people aren't going to be easily run oft. At least get a better errand boy that can sell pussy to a troop train.

The things that stand out to me are.

1. No matter who was hired about 2/3's of that room is out the door because of out of eligibility or portal. 
2. He's a coach and he's supposed to be "so excited" so I'm not sure what the criticism is for. What he's really excited for is that 6.7 Million which is couch cushion money for about 14 other SEC schools. The instant he gets the big head for winning 8 games that new money will be about 8.5 or a new destination job. *which hasn't ever happened unless you count Hootie's exit to Ole Miss




"I got fired for using free speech" yea imagine getting killed over it

Well maybe he can do as well as Fuentes did for VT and Norvell has done for Florida State.

Was he laying on his back after a 3rd & 9 slightly concussed when he tweeted this?

There was a rumor that broke on 11/6 that we had an agreement with Silverfield.  Most dismissed it as internet bullshit. However, after that date he made contact with multiple 4-star recruits from Arkansas who were committed elsewhere (as Memphis coach).  Coincidentally or otherwise, this was the start of Memphis' three game losing streak.

I used to be ho hum on if we even needed to sign Arkansas kids. I've pivoted on that. We need some local flavor.

Obviously we can't rely on them exclusively as there aren't enough of them to build a roster.  But by the same token you can't completely ignore them the way Sam did either.  It's vital that any kid in the state who is SEC caliber, be that one per year or a dozen, signs here.

Maybe I'm a bit sensitive to coaches coming and making comments with expectations. I've already heard "blown away" by recruiting, "win a national championship", and "we're gonna kick the other teams ass". I'd rather hear more of your plan to do it. Very well may just be me....

I agree with this. Tell me your goal and how you think you'll get there. Don't declare victory before it happens.
irritatingly incompetent & infuriatingly unhelpful

Was just about to say the same. I'm tired of talk.

Just come in and say you're ready to get to work and prove doubters wrong.

Then actually get to work and prove doubters wrong.


Coming in with the rah rah we're going to dominate BS doesn't mean anything to me, but then again, this state is full of morons who still call into Randy and Rick who will probably eat it up like candy.

If he wants to me even to think about getting on board, let's see who he "recruits" as OC/DC. That's step one.
