Boss Hog in the Arkansas

I know, my 1st mistake of the day was tuning into his show. This guy is the only person in Arkansas media still going out of his way to defend bielema and jeff long. He said "Its not like Arkansas is going out and getting shelled every week." Really?  ??? Did you watch the game last week? We're going to get shelled for the next two weeks man. Someone on the hill HAS to have compromising pictures of him or something like that because he's doing everything in his power to refute whats happening
That's right, you don't want to be the man to replace the man.  You want to be the man to replace Rory Segrest.

wonder what his definition of 'shelled' is?
It really is this simple. Unchecked government power leads to corruption, and lack of accountability for it is drastically eroding confidence in our institutions.    aristotle

Acri equates Arkansas to his school, Iowa State. Any expectations that go beyond simply participating are unreasonable.

He manages the buzz and his ego is so big he has to give himself a show.  Anyone that signs off in the crap that station airs most the time isn't the smartest to begin with

He's not really an Arkansas fan - he's an Iowa St. fan.

Has little to no history with the program and doesn't understand fans who want and expect better.

Acri is TERRIBLE on the radio.  He comes across as the most pompous jerk you could ever meet.  Also, he is very condescending to anyone who mentions Christian faith.  Twice in the last month or so he has interviewed people who mention their faith (one was the guy putting together the prayer rally at WMS and the other was a lady that works for CBC in Conway) and he has made crude comments to both of them.  He seems to have no reason for his arrogance.  Did one of you guys tell him he has talent?  If so, that was mean.

People pushing their religion or their politics on a sports show should be shot down.

Thanks for joining us Acri.  Don't interview them if you don't want to hear what they have to say.
sometimes it's a good and some times it's a schit

Little man syndrome. The only reason he is on the air is that he is the program director. I refuse to listen to that show even though I like Pat Bradley. Acri is terrible.
This is fun, isn't it.

He's horrible.  He talks more about UCA than the hogs.  Can't stand him.

Acri is no fan of CBB and the Arkansas Razorbacks. I have been in conversations around him where he was openly mocking both.

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

Hey look, there's a topic on Hogville about him. Maybe that's what he's going for. No such thing as bad publicity, ever hear that?

HungryHog

He's not the only one.  Yesterday Bo was interviewing Stoops and was trying to bait him with questions:
bo:  "What positions are hard to recruit for college, really hard to assess talent potential????  O-Line???"

Stoops: "No, d-line is hard to assess, and QB is most important to recruit."

They are just digging for passes to give to Bert..

Ignorance, read my post again.  He was interviewing them for the purpose of promoting the prayer gathering at WMS and they did an on site show at CBC.  I don't think he is anti-religion or he wouldn't have agreed to do the interviews.  I just think he is smug and it is very rude to take shots at the people you are interviewing.

Acri is an Iowa State fan.  He couldn't give two cr@ps about Arkansas football.  He is a yankee wearing red.

No doubt.  Acri is an Iowa State grad.  He has made that well known over the years.

I rarely listen to his show, but I bet the first thing out of his mouth Monday was something about Iowa State beating OU.

True that.  He probably squeezed in near the end of Tommy, Dave, and Roger and did a hooray before his show even started.

UCA is part of the University of Arkansas system, of which Acri has radio ties.  As the boss, he himself has rules of ethics with which he must conform.  To discredit any school within the U of A system would be like calling his client, and employer, a bad name.  Others can do it, just not Acri.  They would not be his client for very long.  We all know how that works, and no one can really blame Acri for holding up his end of the bargain there.  It wouldn't be any different than an NFL player defying the team owner regarding the league rule on the anthem, and then risking dismissal for going against it.

If I was in Acri's shoes, I'd not be the bad mouther either.

UCA is NOT part of the UA system. Both are state funded, but not part of the same system.  My belief is that Acri kisses up to Long b/c every now and then he will have Long on for a short segment or he will get an interview when Long or B.B. are in town.  As program director, he wants to carry UA sports on that station also. Little man is just butt kissing and just wanting to keep access with Long and the US.

I quit listening to the BUZZ so long ago, it took me a minute to realize who Justin Acri was.  Dude talks too fast, that is whenever there aren't nonstop commercials, and whenever they talk about sports instead of being clowns. All ads up to a big fat 0 for me. :puke:

Sorry onebadrubi. Was trying to quote Big Brandanallenfan, but somehow quoted you. Anyway, the point was to him that Acri kisses Long's ass b/c UCA is part of the UA system, which it is not. He does however have an interest of kissing up to Long and the UA b/c as program director he wants the UA access and interviews which he may not get if he was critical of Long or the University. Regardless, he is a liberal carpetbagger who is better suited for Yankee radio and the sooner the better! It's Willis btw (not wylis)!

I think he does some radio work covering UCA (I might be incorrect about that).

UCA's football team is worth talking about.  They are the only major collegiate team in the state who is playing solid fundamentally sound football.  The UofA Football Program is in shambles, and Arkansas State is mediocre.
