Blue blood of the SEC sure, though their championship was the furthest back. They have been more bad than good since then. Also there are 8 teams, Texas and Oklahoma are above them. Thought he meant college football blue blood.Quote:

But to their credit, they dusted themselves off Sunday morning and got on the phone and started making calls to John Tyson, the Hunts, Yurachek, etc. and started really upping things from a salary and NIL perspective.Quote:

Mr. Sam was a massive Razorback fan, but the rest of the kids and grandkids really don't give a rip about it tbhQuote:

They had been trying to get him to do more of it in previous weeks and it came to a head after the Fla loss. When it worked for Auburn and made Jovester look bad- thats when he declared running his shit was more important than winning.Quote:

Our players thought they were going to have to board the flight in everything but shoulder pads and helmets. As many good memories as he gave us in 07, he wiped them all away in 08 with his laziness and just thinking he had it made.Quote:

you should know as much as anyone that in order to lead any group or a team...much less 18-24 yr old young men...you must project confidence, knowledge, and inspire. and i'm not talking about fake projection, you have to really give off those inherent traits. and no one can spot a fake faster than a group of young people on a sports team. i've witnessed it so many times where the exact same words from two different individuals have vastly different effects on a team. the players must have confidence and belief that their leader is competent and can back up what they are trying to say. i just find it hard to believe that anyone and i mean ANYONE that has been in the coaching realm of the sports world couldn't spot the phoniness in JoMo from second 1.
