Like i warned people, Arkansas's road woes were going to be an issue like it usually is with MA. He is a great coach. Just last year, everyone was crying and moaning about how Arkansas was cheated and had the eventual national champs on the ropes in the 2nd round. The potential is there. It shows at home definitely like against Oklahoma and Minnesota. I just don't know what the issue is on the road. That's the real achilles heel.

Unless the fans are ready for more 4-5 year stretches without any NCAA tourney appearances, (let alone tourney wins), I think firing MA may be a little hard to call. Of course it's easy when you have a knee jerk reaction like most fans. but i say give him at most 2 more years to fix his road woes.

The home games haven't looked much better lately. Tired of trying to analyze why he isn't getting it done, I just know he isn't and it might be time to try find someone who can.

Awful awful opinion.

Why in the world would you assume a new coach would go thru 4-5 years of no tourney appearances?? Open your eyes and look around, there are coaches that are turning programs around in two years.

You are so right seriously. We should really only have two SEC wins.

BTW- isn't $2.6 Million a lot for an "OK" coach? 3rd highest in SEC?

He's just a coach. He's had plenty of time. He ain't got. Turning around BB isn't the same as turning around FB, it takes less time for BB......... for most.

Yet we are giving Mike more time to build the BB team than we did the FB coach. Absolute hypocrisy.

Mike needs to make the tourney, I can't make a excuse for him if not. He was given a extension so he want be fired this season. Hogs can still get together an win, maybe last night's loss will bring focus back to the players an they turn it around, find some pride hogs.
