Atmosphere in the South Indoor Club

[WilsonHog]

Definitely different vibe. Maybe a third full by the end of the game. One of the loudest cheers of the day occurred when a lady held up a "Fire Jeff Now" bumper sticker. Comments during the game, made fairly loudly a few times, were things like "How much money did we make on that play, Jeff?" and "Great job, there, BERT." Loud and with emphasis. A few people cheered when we went ahead, but mostly people just sat there like they weren't quite sure what to make of it all.

Strange day.

Sure sounds like even average fans have pretty much had enough.

Good, we need a change of leadership and it has been way too long coming. 

[3kgthog]

Nothing but jokes on the bus back to Baum. Which high school team in Arkansas could beat Coastal, UCA would beat us, etc. Folks wanting to bring back Bobby, buy him a new bike, and set him up with a new girlfriend.

I didn't laugh at any of these. The fact that this is where we are left me...numb.

[fieldturf]

Just wish we would to a staff with Arkansas connections and able to recruit Texas.  Nobody understands except coach's that grew up here.  Now having said that Gus and his staff has Arkansas connections and have done a ok job in his 5 years down there.  We would have better off now if he was hired 5 years ago.   

[jgphillips3]

It's over.  Long can help Bert find a job, fire him or go down with the ship.  Even a brain damaged gopher could see what a disaster this program is now.

So, Holtz and Petrino had Arkansas connections?

[ricepig]

No way.  ricepig says only hogville folks say bert.  gchamblee says anyone who calls Bret a name isn't a true fan.  WilsonHog says I'll change my mind depending how the wind blows and I'll ban anyone who disagrees with me.  I think that covers it.

Umm.....I've never said that, I'm on a couple other boards, the vast majority call him Bert, lol, but nice try!

[Hoggie17]

What ever they had they won!

[ricepig]

What ever they had they won!

I agree, just trying to interject a little truth into the conversation, my apologies.

[goodguytex]

What we need is for someone with a sound game plan for our program to come in, hire a competent staff, and just build the program. We thought we were getting that when bielema was hired. But didn't turn out that way.

[fieldturf]

So, Holtz and Petrino had Arkansas connections?

No, but they had assistants that either played here or where from here.  And we've had 1 for the past 5 years, Barry Lunney! 

[ricepig]

Yeah, that extra guy Petrino had must have made the difference, he had Horton and Botkin.

[fieldturf]

Yea and most our coach's now are from ice hockey part of the United States.  At least Petrino coach's where mostly from the Southern US

[cal34]

Did anybody correct them for calling him Bert?

[ricepig]

I guess if you call Louisville in the southern US.

[Rudy Baylor]

Louisville is in last place in their ACC division

Fair weather fans.     /sarcasm

[DeltaBoy]

Everyone I read on Facebook  are upset how we won.

[thebignasty]

Folks wanted to win in my section.  Weren't very optimistic though.


One fella wanted to see more Hammonds. Don't blame him.

Good section to be in, glad you were able to pull out the win.

[thebignasty]

A little surreal to be surrounded by folks cheering when we cut the lead chanticleer lead to 3 in the 4th quarter.

[RME]

The "average fan" sits in the South Indoor Club?

[wachhog]

So, Holtz and Petrino had Arkansas connections?

Maybe the first time I ever agreed with you. Assistants do need connections in the South.

[RzrbkRat]

South Outdoor Club wasn't any better. On top of that we had to deal with the smell of greasy hamburger smoke and the two screaming concessions harassing all the fans to shop with them.

[AirWarren]

The "average fan" sits in the South Indoor Club?

The average fan sat his ass at home, went and sighted his 30-06, and mowed the yard.

[WaltonCollege]

Did anybody correct them for calling him Bert?

Lol

[DoctorSusscrofa]

Sounds like a great crowd of fine people.

[WalHog2018]

Sounds like a great crowd of fine people.

Been sitting there for four years now. It is a great crowd of people. They are called realists. You know, people who understand how bad our program is. How can you blame the people, but not Bert and Jeffie?

[Al Boarland]

Wait, club members called him Bert?

[hobhog]

Sure sounds like even average fans have pretty much had enough.

They were there. Above average.

If you thought that made them average, where do you rank yourself?

[hobhog]

Proof that WMS needs to keep games. Love both sites but winning dictates attendance, not region.

[ThisTeetsTaken]

Pretty much how I feel.  I want to watch the game to see what happens but then again I want to turn my back to it.

[CiriusPorker]

I miss the days when we were tracking the UA plane. 

[ImHogginIt]

What ever they had they won!

I would like to drink a beer with you 

[DoctorSusscrofa]

Yes, they sound like classy, honorable people. At least the ones that showed up. Fine examples.

[swinemaster]

Spot on!  That's what I did.  Except I sighted in a .270 and opened the gate for my gardener.
