HE did interview for the Nebraska job.  So he is looking.  I say send him to Louisville and let him and Bobby rekindle there "friendship"
As for a replacement, since Long is always saying this is a business.  Hire a CFO type guy or a president or past president of a company to run the department and then have him hire athletic people to support. 



Give it up. There are those on here that can't fathom Long leaving the U of A. They just simply can't believe that he's being strongly urged to look for another job.

We're going to need some Defibrillators if he accepts an AD job at another college.

It really sucks the live when every timeout we have another CEO or Company President get honored. I would allow them to honor me during the game and it is every timeout Long introduces some bigtime donor. It's way to much.

They are doing that everywhere not just at Arkansas. The away games I've been to they do that same sort of stuff.

No there are those that think he has done a good job. They also are smart enough to realize that if he did leave the UA would find someone else. They don't get all bent out of shape over AD's comings and goings like you and others have done. The defibrillator will be needed by those like you IF he does stay.

Actually it would not surprise me at all. As a matter of fact, I'm not surprised by anything that happens up there these days.

Only day you'll need a defibrillator for me is the day you quit posting a bunch of stupid crap that you pull out of your butt and try to pass off as true.

Hogs have hit a wall at the wrong time of the season.  I will go on record now and say they may not even get out of their regional.  The hitting has been carrying them with a few good pitching outings but they just don't have the reliable pitching they need to get back to the CWS.

Same here, I am not a big tracker of ADs.  I mean, I know a lot hate ours, but not real sure if there is an upgrade out there or we are going to get a shitbag.

Nice.  That is the funniest thing I've heard all day.  Maybe there is a site available with relevant AD stats so all of us fans can size them up properly...

Without the firing of Petrino Jeff Long is just another AD no one knows about.

Just because you weren't familiar with him until that moment, doesn't mean he was a new name to everyone else too. We landed a drone on the surface of Mars and you didn't know a single one of the players in that project.

Bielema will be gone. Long will stay. Bazzel needs to keep designing trophies and making western sizzlin commercials.

Lol.

I tried to explain Bazzel to a Tennessee fan. Couldn't. There is nothing to liken him to.

You can bet that there is not a link to Long interviewing for the job.  Won't be. Now he did not get the job as we know.
My info comes from a very reliable source.  And I won't reveal his/her name.

I believe you but I suggest that you PM a Mod and privately name your source to him. If you ask the Mod not to reveal your source on Hogville, he will honor your request that your source remain anonymous but will verify that your source is a legit one. The Mods on here are good about keeping the name of a source to themselves when asked to.

False, he originally made a claim and was asked to provide support for that claim.  That is how it works...  If you are going to say something as FACT, be prepared to back it up. don't ask others to provide facts to prove you wrong.

I am in the boat of your first sentence and I have yet to see the name of a replacement that is anywhere close to Long.

Why? Do you really think that any of us give 2 squirts whether or not any of you believe what we present?? Talk about arrogance! I NEED to prove something to Hogville??? Talk about a laugh.

I read Hogville to find new info that I didn't already know. It is my way of staying caught up with the happenings within the program. I would prefer people that post events as fact that if asked for a source they could provide it. Some claims sound unbelievable and I generally ask for sources for those claims. If all you need to believe something is for it to align with your perception then that is on you. If something sounds absurd, even if it fits my desires, I still look for sources for the claim. Factchecker and Rice are very good at bringing real data to the discussion to disprove or verify somebody else's claims.

If asking for a source offends you, maybe it just means you don't have a source and want others to believe whatever you make up and post. There have been a few posters, all of them want Jeff fired, that have posted that he has actively sought other employment. I would just like to see a source for this.

I beg to differ. 

6 dollar seats to watch Auburn at home say different.  The fans have spoken.  It's is too late for Bielema and I think the undercurrent is too strong for Long to survive.

Also, the folks I'm talking to want him gone.

Just my obervation from talking to folks.

To have this opinion you must believe that it is not normal for there to be cheap tickets available in the nosebleed sections. I don't know either way, so I have no idea if this is normal. If I had to guess though, I would lean towards this being an indication of nothing.

So Long is gone because there are cheap tickets on stubhub? Ok.

On a positive note with this. He also genuinely does love the state of Arkansas. And so does his family.

It is normal for there to be cheap tickets in those areas but 6 dollar tickets are extremely rare and even more so for an SEC conference game. It pretty well indicates that the Razorback faithful are not happy with the program.

First you would have to show where someone actually claimed that? I havent seen anyone say that at all. What I have seen people say is that he is very well respected and considered one of the top active AD's in the country. I can back up what I have heard with sources, can you back up what you just claimed with sources?
