For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

I hope bmfp and twill hit the road.  Then hy can either fire Sam, negotiate an honorable retirement paid in installments, or ride or die with that fungus.  Maybe a disastrous 2025 will get Yuri fired as well.

Come on now, you're not excited at the thought of Chaney calling plays and Paul Rhoads coming back to run the defense?  Maybe we can even poach John Chavis back from the United Football League.

No one should be surprised by this. There is no other teams in the SEC that would retain the HC after 5 seasons of failure or mediocrity. Arkansas is not a SEC program.

I'm not surprised, motherfuckers. I can't believe anyone thought he was going to retire.

Just so we're all clear next season when there is 6 other SEC jobs open we'll be the very last school in the pecking order. That may include Vandy if Clark Lea gets an offer from a bigger time gig.

Yep.

I've been saying this for weeks, but instead of competing against West Virginia and a bunch of G5 programs, Yurachek is essentially opting defer to next year and coach shop at the same time as the likes of Auburn, Oklahoma, Florida, Florida State, etc.

Just an unserious, stupid program doing unserious, stupid things.

We hired a guy who can only think tactically to run the most strategically important job in the athletic department.  Most people in his position think 1,2, 5 years down the road and the impact their decisions will have.  Ours looks at the bank account every day and tries to figure out what he can do based on the balance he sees.

HY is always reacting (usually quite late), never proactive.

yurachek doesn't and can't do shit unless those that control the money say so. this is how it's always been.

argue about whether there's money to do so, but unless those that are actually going to pay the buyout say get rid of him, he can't fire anyone.

Ray Zorback

Maybe they want Sam to wait until after signing day to announce his retirement. Isn't it Dec 4th?

As I've said before, an AD has 2 jobs:

  • Hire good coaches
  • Raise money

Yurachek failed at #1, but he can't rectify it because he fails at #2.

So what exactly does he do except to tweet good luck and occasionally surface in Hogs+ content (only after a win, of course)?

raise what money? the money is there, but the people who have it aren't spending it for the buyout. the problem is higher up than the athletic director.

I believe that was the case last year.

I don't believe Hunter wants to fire Sam now.  He probably sees a two game improvement as enough to justify keeping him.

no one really knows. and i'm in no way advocating for yurachek.

if the boosters, the bot, whoever is going to buy the guy out, really wanted him gone, then it wouldn't matter what yurachek thinks. ad's being shown the door for not doing what the money guys wanted. it's not like that's never happened.

especially one that seems to be raising his skirt.

Lets reverse this...if the chancellor or whoever the big dog is says we need to make a move...is HY standing in the way? I doubt it but the chancellor and the BOT may simply be riding it out until HY comes to them in failure hat in hand telling them we need to make a move. Last season he did this by essentially telling everyone we can't get rid of Pittman but we can underhandedly hire Petrino back and it might raise a bit of money in the process and he wasn't wrong.

An AD only has so many hires in the tank before the BOT and movers and shakers say next on his ass. This isn't Broyles we're talking about nobody is gonna give a flying fuck if and when HY gets run oft.

see my post above. if there's any truth to the rumors of yurachek wanting out, then what kind of obstacle can he be?

all i'm saying is if stephens (as an example) says i'm tired of this shit he's gotta go, what in reality can the ad do?

Sus-Scrofa

It can never be said enough that half of Hunter's problems today stem from giving a coach that wasn't going to leave and was never going to get poached a world class buyout.
