Put Irwin and Pork in the octagon and let them fight it out :)

Porkatarian

Tom Collen is the one that's in trouble.  Wait and see.

I used to argue with HA about how Pel ran the basketball team.  I've since learned to like and respect him.  In fact, I'd go as far to say that HA is well connected or extremely perceptive. - Porkatarian, 11/7/12

What's a cliffs notes version of what Mike has said? I'm out of state and can't listen.

Where are you guys seeing that Mike says Pel is in trouble?

On that show of his

No offense to Porkatarian, but I'll trust Mike and Doug because I actually know who they are.   I have no idea who Porkatarian is.  Maybe he's a fantastic source of information, but without a name I just can't trust him more than a respected Arkansas media member and a respected national media member.

Don't take it personally Pork, but got to go with real names.

He has a radio show that is on during this time of the day in NWA...

I'll make a prediction: If BCG were to get the Tennessee job, Calipari will be fired from UK within 2 years because from the 2013-2014 season on, Tennessee will own the SEC East until BCG moves on or retires.

HAHAHA

The only way that this could get any more rich is if Long uses low attendance as one of the causes of Collen's firing.

Agree hogfan064.

I will trust 2 credible, experienced media sources with strong connections with the university of Arkansas, the boosters, and the Sutton's....

The ape pic was the former screen shot of KEYS, a NWA booster who was close to Mitch Mustain and Family. He is a generally good guy who got hurt in all the Gus/Mitch storm. Porkatarian is both taller and not as hairy as the ape.

Something that is hard for some to get: its possible both Mike and Pork are correct, they just have sources with differing information.

You can add SPORTSbyBROOKS to the Irwin and Gottlieb side. He is a pretty respected reporter who used to be connected to ESPN.

You usually have pretty reliable information. However, I find it hard to believe guys that follow this stuff for a living are saying he is in trouble, while you say he is safe. Never mind the fact that you said the same stuff about various players that were going to transfer or not make it to campus that ended up being here.

I was hoping Pork was an actual ape and that was his photo.  It would add to the legend.

Just a thought but doesn't it depend on who we can get as a replacement????  I hear people say get this coach and that coach but does anyone REALLY know who will leave their
current job?  Just hoping we have someone better in waiting when Pel is let go.

You guys are just hopeful that they are right

You hope that long fires pel and sets our program back another 5 years....

The_Iceman

No way Pelphrey survives if he loses to OM and in the 1st round of the SEC-T.

The Alter trolls are old.

The_Iceman

Here's how a 2011 coaching search should go:

1) Call Self and Pitino or whatever big name intrigues Long just in case.

2) Call Mike Anderson and try to sell not just the pay raise, but all the improvements to facilities and the culture of the program that will be created by increased attendance/donations.

3) If that failed, call Mark Turgeon at TAMU.

4) If it gets to step #4, you call Gregg Marshall and the search is over.

Porkatarian

FWIW, I believe that Irwin has excellent sources.

Pork,
Any truth to the rumor that you are an actual ape that wears a Houston Nutt golf hat?

j/k I appreciate what you bring to the board, especially a free one.

BAHAHA

Saying someone is "in trouble" is very vague.    Pork and Irwin could both be right.  Being "in trouble" could basically be a non committal way of riding the wave that Gottlieb started and the media is riding.  "In trouble" doesn't mean Pel is gone.  It's just something to say that won't be called to account if Pel stays.

The_Iceman

So two people with "good sources" that are saying different things.

Who to trust?

TMc

Everyone could be right about their projections.., the key is going to be this and this along:  Are they going to be able to make a home run hire? If they can they will move on Pelphrey.., if not they won't.  I believe it's going to be as simple as that.

Hire Nolan to coach the women.  He could assist Mike.

Not at all.  I just believe legit names over some screen name on a message board.

I went to Stillwater a few days ago to watch one of my former players Marshall Moses play his last home game and ran into Gotlieb at a bar ,had a few drinks with him and he stands by what he said, it should get pretty interesting this next few weeks!!

Fire Collen and hire Nolan, haha! That would be awesome yet kinda insulting. He is coaching in the WNBA so who knows what he'd do.

This would explain why Irwin's and Pork's sources are right: Hire Nolan to lure back Mike Anderson.

We are currently filling up a 1/3 of our arena and we're about to finish fourth in an unbelievably weak SEC West that probably won't see one team make the NCAA Tournament and you are worried about setting the program back? I don't know how much further back we could go.

I could agree with this some what.

I think if you take Pork's info and Gottlieb's info, you can come to an obvious conclusion.

Tom Collen will be fired and the #1 target is Mike Anderson.
