I'm not clicking on that but had we went 6-6 we would probably be stuck with Enos and hoping for an 8 win season next year but probably looking at starting Criswell and end up 4 wins. Instead we sucked and ended up with GMFP (Grampa Petrino) which hopefully will reverse the curse placed on the program.

Putting out a puff piece on how "actually missing a bowl game is a good thing" is pretty fucking damn piss poor. We lost good recruits because we sucked hard and the program appears directionless especially when your head coach advises everyone in the national media that actually he's in over his head but he's going to keep cashing them checks until his key card no longer works. Oh and BTW we sucked no because of the coach but because we are poor old Arkansas and can't afford to buy talent. I bet that must have made the existing players feel love for the program. So much so that many of them threatened to stay.

SI.com posts quite a few shitty fan pieces for every team.  Are we sure this has Pittman behind it?

no idea on who's behind it. They all read like AI generated trash with someone's name attached to it.

This Kent Smith dipstick has to be either AI or a MU grad. Seems like most of "his" articles are lecturing Hog fans with nonsensical takes.

What an idiot. "We win by losing."

I have seen a couple of his articles and they are nonsensical,but this is just dumb.

I think one problem with us that that we are so predictable. I think nearly everyone on here knew our first play was going to be a handoff for either no gain or a loss. Then, pass, pass, punt. We are not very innovative. We were vanilla all year. And I think this was the worst our RBs have ever done. But with the OL line we had, you can't blame them. Hopefully, BMFP will change that.
Well, shit...

Nutt damn near always opened with a 10 yard curl route that was generally money a couple times a game, then we would follow that up with smoke draws and other classics from Tecmo Super Bowl.

Missouri and Ole Miss have basically been shit programs for two decades and they are in major bowls and ranked in the top 10...

because of coaching.

We were at that level a dozen years ago...

because of coaching.

People are so worried about NIL, etc and it's not irrelevant.

But in the end average programs have to make the hires.  We did when we hired Petrino.  Ole Miss did with Kiffen.  Surprisingly, Mizzou did with Drink. 

Our next hire will really matter.  I hope the Petrino as OC experiment works, I do.  But the next hire has to be legit.

Good for Ole Miss and good for Missouri.  I'm done hating teams who clearly have their shit together because we are the fat girl at the prom who can't get a date.  Literally it's stupid. 

We could've paid up for Kiffen but our stupid AD had a vendetta against Sexton. Well guess what stupid?  Sexton knows his clients worth and we refused to be serious and hired Fattman. Who anyone could've gotten. 

Drink just laughed at us.  Norvell would now too.  They know we're not a serious program. 

Why would we expect this program to finally get it's shit together after watching it flub Jimmy, Butch, Tommy, Gus, Norvell and Drink?

All from Arkansas, all top 10 coaches. 

It's just not going to happen boys.  The Petrino reunion is all we're going to get and I'm actually happy I even got that. 

Oh, and Ole Miss and Missouri HAVE NOT been shit programs for 2 decades.  Missouri has had multiple 10 win seasons under Pinkel and now Drink and played for the championship. 

Ole Miss has won a Sugar bowl.  And finished top 10 under Freeze.  They fucked up hiring Luke aka home grown Arkansas type Pittman hire but realized they fucked up and now are back.

All of this.

I find it hilarious that some dumbasses in our fan base and media still thumb their noses at Missouri and Ole Miss and act like they're inferior programs when both have surpassed and lapped our asses in the last decade.

We're an irrelevant, unserious program, which was reinforced by the fact that our administration decided to run it back with a lame duck coach and justify it by bringing in (let's be honest) a past-his-prime Bobby Petrino as an empty gesture marketing ploy to sell tickets when fan apathy was setting back in.

The Q rating of this program quite literally could not be worse. If we're being honest, no one wants to coach here, I can't blame them. We've become a place that kills coaches' careers, and we haven't had a coach leave of his own accord since Hatfield.

17 years ago we hired a sitting NFL coach. 12 years later we were having to hire a career OL coach because quite literally no one wanted this job.

Pittman should have ridden off into the sunset after the 2022 season so we could hire a coach on better footing, but his ego and his greed wouldn't let him. Now we're effectively back in the same condition in which he found us.

Rumors from twitter and that porkatarian chode that we're talking to Michael Smith to come back as WR coach.  That would be peak-Pittman, to hire a guy who's been fired from 3 straight jobs because they coached together under Bert.  Bobby probably proposed a candidate without DD man-tits.

The last two posts are spot on. Nothing else to say, until everyone, not just us on here, will do everything it takes to be competitive.

Some people are putting their heads in the sand, looking at basketball or baseball to ease the pain, instead of dealing with it. I don't think that is helping anymore anyways. It is going to be hard work, and it will take nothing short of a reset to fix things.

Here's Your Check and the TPTB went cheap and it is going to end up be expensive in the long run.

Not saying it'd be a good hire or bad hire, but wasn't Smith considered a good coach/recruiter when he was here? Or am I thinking of someone else?

You have one part of this backwards.  It's Sexton with the vendetta against us, not the other way around.  He engineered the Matt Luke firing specifically so he could send Lane to Ole Miss.  Once they fired Luke there was no way Sexton was going to let us or Kiffin make him look like an asshole.

Going thru some stuff in storage and found this.  He old man probably lit a ton of Camels with it before parking it for his reliable Zippo.

Did y'all see Little Wally's comment in the Dem-Gaz this morning that said the rumors are that KJ was paid $950k last year?

Any idea on the background of why Sexton has a vendetta against us?  I would say that either Yurachek or his successor need to prioritize repairing that relationship.
