I would imagine that Beard has some sense of loyalty to Keith Carter for giving him a shot after his firing. Carter is a basketball guy and seems like a pretty good AD to work for.

Ole Miss has zero basketball tradition, but its not like A&M has much more.

Solely to vote against compensation packages.

Brazile, Wagner and Aidoo are absolutely arse and that's on the coach. They add zero value to this team.

Not sure I'd lump Wagner in with those other two.

They're thinking, at least we get Arkansas at home.

Home games with Carolina, A&M, Texas, and Tennessee

And they're thinking, oh shite we have to go to Arkansas.

But really, this schedule (at least on paper) looks insane.

If only Arkansas had a coach who understood the importance and was capable of recruiting and developing offensive linemen.

Didn't catch the second half or any of the Tennessee game, but looking at the box scores, I don't think the recipe for success is Fland taking 20 shots with 8 of those being 3's, while Aidoo and Brazile combine for 5 points on 1 field goal attempt.
Missouri: Arkansas, please be our rival so that we can fit in.

Arkansas: No.

Missouri: See! We are rivals.
Kentucky basketball: Scores 106 points to beat #7 Florida in thrilling top 10 matchup.

Kentucky fans: Shitpost about Cal.

It's weird seeing Cal and the opposing coaches talk after games. Muss hated even shaking hands.

Muss is a petulant little man. His antics are tolerable when you are winning but are otherwise insufferable. Nothing against the man, and I'm thankful for his contributions, but when the losses started to pile up, his schtick wore thin.

Meanwhile, Cal is the most charismatic SOB on the planet.

The schools should end the madness and take away all athletic scholarships. Make intercollegiate athletics what it should be. Society would benefit.


Lunardi has to be trolling Kentucky & Arkansas right?
