Ziffel, what was the deal with firing Long?  Has that been in the works for a while?  Did he pork a BOT's wife or daughter or something?

[Godfather]

No.  Instead of.

Again you will take Dallas's sloppy seconds but not Kaos? You have no basis to set any standards.

some things I've heard...seems to have started about the time Mo & VaTech came back to kick our ass last year & has been picking up steam since...

didn't kiss big $ donors ass enough...

His head expanded every year

Stadium expansion...cost

disagreement w/Guv...if true, he lost argument

raised ticket prices...FB & BB

There are echos in both our FB & BB stadiums...during the games. (empty seats)

A lot of people around here don't like pepsi drinkin' carpet baggers...(I've seen him drink diet coke)

& it's Ziffell w/2 L's....

Did I mention our FB team sucks?

You have a Facebook team?

[Godfather]

You have a Facebook team?

You should see their uniforms

[JDHog]

Not arguing any of that.  Just saying that there is a pretty strong contingent of the Ark PTB that hate him for any of the following:

"recruiting" HS kids to Springdale HS
conflict with Nutt during his tenure as OC
coaching at ASU
Kristi
leaving Arkansas

He's controversial there.

All true.  But we are at rock bottom.  Who in the hell are we going to get?  Realistically?  Is Gus even realistic?

Compared to Fat Bastard and JL Smith, Gus has had a lot of success.  All the while Arkansas has sucked ass.  Some see a native Arkansan doing this elsewhere and want to bring him home.

I'm in kind of the 'meh' category on Gus.  I'd sure take him though.

That's what I was thinking. We are kinda meh on him as well.  But seeing what you currently have (us seeing what's out there) he doesn't look as bad.

Was a bit surprised Ziffell was a straight up don't want.  Gus ain't much but he's certainly a step-up from what you got.

I prefer not....but they probably won't call me....

& I agree he'd be a major step up....but a guy can dream...

Looks like a european socialist to me.

[Snaggletiger]

So, if you knew your team was going to make a change, is there anyone from the SEC, Head Corch of Ass Corch, that you would want?  And you can say Saban if you want because I'd love to see what he could really do without the "backing" that he has at Bama.  Obviously, he did a good job at LSU.  How about assistants.  Any potentially good future head coaches in your mind?

Always thought Eddie Gran would be a good head coach one day, not that I want him next year on the plains.  I'd be curious to see how Pruitt or Grantham would be as HCs as well.  I liked Shannon at Miami, but he seems like he's just a better DC, kind of how I'll always view Chizik.

And I'll always wonder how Mason would do if he were at a good school, where he could get good talent.

Other than that, meh.

[Buzz Killington]

Damn...just noticed how far Brady Hoke has fallen.  From HC at Meeeechigan to DL coarch at Tennessee, you really can't buff that out.

[Saniflush]

Gus ain't going anywhere, book it.

He's the interim coach now.

Well, there's that.  I must have missed that...
