Moos.  We'll be stuck with Long. No one wants him.

So Washington state will be looking for a new AD

It's hard for me to see a school that Jeff Long would leave Arkansas for that would hire him.

If Jeff leaves, it's likely going to take BOT dismissal.

And, who thinks that's going to happen?

If they're not gonna let him go after turning a blind eye to rape, turning a blind eye to complaints from volleyball players of abuse followed by letters from parents followed by more player complaints, while twisting facts to actually fire a coach for a helluva lot less than either of these, then no, here not gonna let him go.  He's gonna have to leave on his own, and without somewhere to go,.....

The BOT knows Arkansas athletics is in good hands with Jeff Long.   He'll be here as long as he wants.

I'm all in !  Let's all head on over to Bert's house and hang out at the pool. Plenty of Crown Royal, Chevis Regal 18 and Schaefer's Light Beer..oh along with the biggest feast of food one can imagine. All sorts of cakes, pies, cookies, brownies (be sure to get your fill before the OL coach gets there as he grabs the whole platter if they have brownies in it). Also, the highlight of the day is watching Bert and Anderson "rock the pool" with a series of cannon balls. Fun to be had by all, just don't let Kurt see you grab the last brownie, then it's on, brother.

Only a school that needs an integrity boost without pressure to win for a while.  Ole miss?

We're Miracle on Markham and 4th and 25, 7 overtime-winning tear down the goalposts and drag em down Dickson because you ain't goin to the BCS, fat phil!!

2 voted against formally, which effectively was a formal vote of no confidence in him as an AD (their pretend claims with the stadium were absurd, which if you go back and look on the threads at that time, there was near consensus even on Hogville on that point).

As I understand it others pushed back pretty hard in the discussions.

Yeah to further support that assertion their fans certainly did not if you read their message boards. They were ecstatic about all candidates but were nearly unanimous in their "please not Jeff Long", "I would be extremely disappointed in Long", or "He destroyed their FB program" posts.

True, WSU was 41-53 under his AD tutelage, not including this season.

Tons of trouble?

The expansion passed with a 8 to 2 vote.

The two dissenters used false cries of sympathy for our students despite The University of Arkansas being the only instate school who doesn't steal from their students via athletic fees.  We also don't live off of subsidies unlike jonesboro state, conway college, and little rock university.

Funny how nobody [CENSORED] about jonesboro renovating their stadium (putting a wasteful waterfall in) despite them living off of subsidies.  Similar to how nobody complained when WMS used a million dollars of our tax money to shine a turd.

Agree, see my post above saying the same. To me, this is even more damming. The two dissenters were effectively giving formal votes of no confidence in the AD, and the stadium was just a proxy.

Gotcha re your second post that the other 8 laughed. Definitely could be wrong on that one just what I had thought the rumors were

I actually agree with this too. We should just take football hiring/contracting out of his hands and we would be in good shape.

Wait, I thought JL wanted Grobe but was forced to hire Petrino?  And, I thought CBB's buyout was over $15M but in actuality it is much less?

Sounds like hiring and contracting has been in the hands of multiple entities for a while now.

This characterization of Bill Moos may be why Nebraska hired him:

"Bill Moos is indeed the guy. Good hire. Antithesis of Shawn Eichorst in terms of personality. Football guy through and through." - Steven Sipple from Husker Extra

Ah, well. That definitely doesn't describe our boy Jeff. Maybe Washington State, Louisville, or Maryland won't be so ticky when it comes to their football program. Maybe they'll be in the market for a softball and gymnastics guy who loves him some GPA.

Well, he didn't play nice with Phil Knight and was let go at Oregon, and has overseen WSU to 41-53 up until this year. I guess he's a football guy, though.

Long has become,and everyone in here has one in their family, the crazy uncle. He won't die and you can't get rid of him. He's going to be around until even the 'twenty somethings' on Hogville are dead and gone. We had a guy when I was living as a pledge at the Kappa Sig house. His first name was Paul and he lived in the only room on the top floor of the gothic style structure. Paul was 31 years old and I was 18. Paul was taking one hour as a 31 year old fried student in the subject of audio-visual. That was 1979, I wonder if Paul is still there. I know Jeffie is still there. And if Paul has moved on, I'm sure the AEKDB boys will allow Jeffie to live on the fourth floor of the Kappa Sig house.
