Apparently they sent a plane for Bobby Bones Who landed in Fayetteville this afternoon saying that "Cal needs him And he will see him tomorrow"
I would highly doubt they send the university of Arkansas plane to pick him up today if it wasn't a done deal.

I think the alumni association just announced they gave him some type of honor, fellowship position.  Plane was probably for that.

Are they going to push all the local media out of the way, ban Lakers jersey's and usher in the national boys for this presser? I imagine so.

Also always this need by media to push some narrative mainly out of thin air and push so hard they believe in their own bullshit.

He is going to hold the bottom of the rope ladder

It paints a picture for the national audience that we could have afforded to keep muss, but we didn't think he was worth it.

That's gotta chap his hide a little bit this morning.

I like this take.

It's even broader than that from a deep pocket standpoint, but at the micro level this hits right.

Y'all seem to underestimate just how big he is. I imagine he's as big a booster as we've got and has huge future earnings potential. I just lurked back when he posted on here, but he was cool. He must have been really young, but held his own against HiM and Truth. Be glad he's a hog fan.

Lord, please ban him. Probably what drove Altman off. Maybe Tyson should pony up a reporter fund too.

The rumor was that he would be MCing the announcement.

Oh, and Pete Thamel just posted this, which is nice:



@PeteThamel
Sources tell ESPN that the deal between John Calipari and Arkansas is in the final stages before completion. The formal announcement is expected on Tuesday, as we reported earlier tonight on ⁦
@CollegeGameDay

He donates and attends a lot of Hog sporting events.

Perish peacefully in a warm environment.

Nice timing by Hunter on this, taking massive advantage of the publicity. Even though Tyson stepped up, gotta give credit where credit is due.

Bobby Bones is a nice touch too.

Hopefully this all trickles down to football and let's the national media and public know we're serious about sports.

Just stop. He is one of the biggest national cheerleaders we have. He mentions the Razorbacks in some form or fashion on his national radio show daily. Him and Eddie do a pretty cool show called Too Much Access. It is VERY MUCH a sports show. I know you like to be tough and sound cool, but you're just wrong here. Let it go this one time.

UA announcement regarding Bobby Bones. He was just making a joke about Cal.

"Bobby Estell, professionally known as Bobby Bones, will visit the university campus April 8-10 as the 2024 Arkansas Alumni Association Johnson Fellow."
