Just hang in there Hog fans, Calipari will get you to the promised land. It's a process...it takes time.
Arkansas fans are starting to see it now. Link to their message board.

Built for March…and it gives new meaning to one and done.
We need to collectively send everyone in the state of Arkansas a Christmas card this year. Seriously, is anyone not supremely happy they took Cal off our hands? We should sympathize with them and express our appreciation. Otherwise we were stuck with him for who knows how long. He may have hung around for years after he moved on from coaching.
Only about 3 more months hogs fans until the play like Cal wants em too.
If they don’t like how he’s coaching now, wait till March gets here and he has his team so tight they forget how to go and run and start stall ball the whole game along with ramming it in the middle repeatedly with no where to go.
Agree! If Cal stayed this team wouldn't be unbeaten. We definitely lose vs. Duke and who knows, probably drop another one as well. This place would've been insufferable. I think attendance at Rupp would have nosedived. People had enough and weren't buying what he was selling anymore. The heat on Mitch would have been dialed up to 100, even moreso with the season Stoops had this year. I know I would have checked out.
But thank you Arkansas!
That's a given...he's having to beg arky fans to show up to the games already, and they've only had a couple of months to get tired of him not 5/6 years
all I can think about is that tyson chicken dude smiling his butt off at that press conference, accepting all the pats on the back like he just averted the cuban missile crisis. Ignorance is truly bliss.
We really should send thank you cards to the chicken man. I would love to see his face and hear his comments after a big huge mailbag full of thank you cards from UK fans was plopped on his desk.
As far as all these Arkansas threads are concerned, I like them, I want to talk about it. We deserve to talk about it and we deserve to feel good about what's happening at Arkansas.
There are 300 other threads on the home page, I see the thread titles and I can clearly see which ones interest me and which ones don’t interest me. I click on the ones that interest me. The board is very well designed and easy to navigate.

Isnt it obvious now that the way it used to be was Nike and Adidas set that stuff up whether passing exams or giving out money. Coaches knew, of course they did but its plausible deniability . From the WAC all the way up to the Power conferences, there are no innocent coaches, they know the game behind the game and how it works or I guess during the pre NIL era they all know how it worked. I guess now the shady things would just be how to get a kid eligible and keep them eligible since players can get paid now out in the open.
It's a good point. Arkansas really inadvertently bailed us out. I'm not gonna thank them, because their intention was to "steal" what they thought was our golden goose.. but i am thankfully they botched this up, and allowed us to get out from under that lifetime contract.
Imagine how we'd look now, and the further infighting Cal would be doing with the fans and media. And we'd probably have to do it this year and next, just to be able to eat the payout. Those final 2 years with Cal would truly be a messy divorce (if it wasn't already).
I understand discussing Calipari. He was our “coach” for 15 years and it was kind of a nasty breakup. The new “girlfriend” came in when the season started talking about how much better they were for him and how he was gonna run us off the court, yada yada yada
It’s schadenfreud man. I don’t really blame anyone for saying “I told ya so”. It’s human nature.
I still think Calipari has a little bit in the tank; enough to buy him one more year with the Arkansas fans. Good for them
We have a better coach and our future looks bright.
By sending them thank you cards, we would be sarcastically thanking them for being incredibly stupid.
They are the Eskimo that purchased a very expensive snowball that constantly melts.
