Honestly, Arkansas has no one to blame but themselves, they have the Walmart fortune and the JJ fortune to recruit but haven’t. $20M from those two families combined is nothing and would buy a helluva roster. The school and area are top notch. Losers gonna lose I guess. But if Phil knight can make Oregon, arky can gets is billionaires to step up. This is entirely on them. 

The Waltons are completely disinterested in sports and the Tysons care about track and (now) football.  Jerry has always chipped in for coach buyouts but seems disengaged from the NIL game.  Not sure why.

Their problem to solve but it’s on them, they have the resources.

I was half way listening today but they mentioned something about Petrino can’t be hired as a HC because of the motorcycle incident? No idea no care but heard something of the sorts.

Tysons are all in on the basketballs.  John Tyson single-handedly brought in Calipari and gave him a shit ton of money to buy a roster.

Yeah, I meant to type basketball but went brain dead.  John Tyson and Cal are tight.  Tysons don't care about football for whatever reason.

If Hugh Freeze can get hired after using the school phone to line up whores, anyone can get hired.  Hell, Sark's background isn't great.

Petrino can't get hired as a HC because he sucks at being a head coach.

The way I understand is verbiage in the contract says something about him not being able to be HC, but interim is possibly okay.

Mentioned on the other thread but they should make a run at Jeff Traylor.  He’s 57 and the shine is a bit off so unlikely to get a premier P5 job. Well respected in Texas HS circles,  runs a solid program. 
 

Work with him for 7-8 years to get the NIL going and the program on the right track and then the next guy will be in place to elevate it. 

Yep, this would be the logical choice.   Spent a couple of years up in Arky under the failed Chad Morris experiment, but that can't be blamed on Traylor.   He's built his own reputation at UTSA to separate himself anyhow.   Being from East Texas and still respected in Texas High School Football coaching ranks is big help to.   Okie State or Arky would be dumb not to give him a serious look.

Hey,man, what the fuck is this nonsense? The school is top notch? According to people who went there, perhaps, and that is about it.

The Jones family cannot be involved with NIL due to the league's position that ownership participating in NIL for college athletes constitutes a conflict of interest. When we were courting Cal McNair, he asked the league's compliance end to provide an opinion, and this is what they came back with for him, which was fucking great.

For a student experience yeah Arkansas is a top notch choice. Don’t get me wrong, it’s one of three “fuck no” schools for my kids. But just look at all the Texas exes parents sending their kids there, and some are regular posters here. Academics?  No one gives a fuck.  But they have a solid fan base, nice undergrad experience, there’s no reason Arky can’t be as successful as Ole Miss, at least.

didn’t realize JJ was per se excluded because of NFL ownerhip. That’s good info. Thanks.

Jerry doesn't care about winning. He may say he does but he doesn't.
