fans still suffering from butthurt over losing since joining the sec.

no not really....most I talk to love the move. Sure, we need to win more games - but why NOT be in the best football conference in America.

No other conference compares to the combined level of football , tailgating and overall gameday atmosphere in the SEC

He loves the recruiting class being in the 50's...he has that childish 'told you so' attitude that makes a person want to puke.

He's not pulling for a turnaround...it's obvious
96.3 radio sports guys should really research more instead of "winging it" while on the air.  These guys do very little research into recruiting.  They watch very little video on recruits.  They talk way to much about stuff that does not pertain the to the HOGS.

Ah look a 12 1/2 yr old acct with fewer than 8 posts a yr and most of those coming in 2011 or earlier. So, who's alternate acct are you?

Funny thing though, there is another thread pointing out that last yr they had 13 red shirts, and several of those look like they will push for playing time this yr.


Nope...one account since I joined Hogville, I scan through it almost daily but post very little...just like I listen to Bo's show almost daily on the drive home from work. I'm a Hog fan and like to keep up with the happenings as I can, and I know as well as anyone that listens to the show much that if they are successful next season the same guy (Bart I believe) that was calling the guy an idiot for saying there was talent on the current roster will be giving the previous coaching staff credit for having left so much talent....and Bo will too....just how they roll...I'm ok with it, they have to keep the pot stirred to have a talk show. I just wish they could do it without being so condescending to some of the callers.

We wouldn't have cracked the top 40 with Bert.  And we all know Bert couldn't win unless he had a talent advantage.

Obviously I wish we had a higher ranked class but if it's the price to pay to rid ourselves of Bert, it's a small price to pay.

Someone 'spained' to me some weeks back that if we could have filled out the rest of the class to the 25 allowed with 3-stars our ranking would be somewhere up around 40-35 +/-. 
I don't like to plan my day because then the word premeditated comes into the conversation.

Bo's superiority complex was old years ago.  It's time for him to move on and aggravate another fan base.

I think all of us who truly love the Hogs are saddened that it didn't work out for either Long or Bret. Heck, had they done the jobs we had expected we would not have only saved a boat load full of money in buyouts and "start overs", but would not have been the overall mess we're in today. If anyone wants to be angry and upset then just look at the fact neither was getting it done after five years and place the blame on the two folks who ultimately screwed things up. Placing the blame on the folks who had to make the final (difficult) decisions to make the necessary changes as well as attacking the overall fan base who expected and demanded better is misplaced/misdirected. Always amazes me (after all this time not sure why though) how when someone fails almost immediately that person (and that person's defenders) want to avoid self-examination; almost inevitably the fault lies within.

Morris's success next year isn't going to be based on this recruiting class.  it will be based on whether he can get more out of our current team than BB could.

Bret wasn't a bad recruiter by arkansas standards, so Morris should have an average amount of talent to work with.

Agree 100%.

But he also inherits holes in the roster, particularly on both sides of the line. Have to keep that in mind as we judge performance in spring practice and possibly early next year.

I don't mind  o nearly as much as when he leaves that jackass Bart in charge to do the show. He just goes out of his way to make fun of callers. It's his only schtick and frankly, I'd like to punch him in the face, so I don't listen to his shows when he is the honcho. But then again, I rarely listen to Bo outside of football season and with hen only when he has Irwin or a national pundit on.

It isn't necessary to put down Mike Norvell to make coach Morris look better. Coach Morris doesn't need that kind of help. He's a good coach.

I was wondering where that came from. Maybe he is that good, but only Guv could take someone giving Morris a complement and turn it into some underhanded slight towards Norvell.

However, while we are at it, if he was the next coming of Saban why wasn't he picked up by Arkansas or Tennessee or Ole Miss or some other high-profile program?

Well, Guv says it is because the only job Norvell was going to leave Memphis for was the Arkansas job, so Om, Tn, FL, or no one else bothered to call.

I wish Bo and Bart would move on OUT OF STATE and Mike Irwin and Clay Henry would take over

People getting mad when someone isn't a sunshine pumper on the radio. Bo is spot on, negative or not. We have been, and are still behind in recruiting. Bielema didn't pan out, and left Morris with very little time to patch dozens of holes all over the field.

He wasn't blaming the new coach, just saying its going to be a while til it gets better. I agree.


Bo has to get people to pay attention in the offseason just like every other program. He just spends his on stuff like this. Tune into the other show, and they are talking about drug and alcohol addiction.

I didn't hear the show in question, so no comment on that particular show. As we speak Bo is on a rant about "negativity." Wonder where that came from ;)?

When he starts "being Bort Bielingly", I turn the channel or turn it off. He comes across as an arrogant little troll which is why I rarely listen. When I do it is to see who the guests are. He does have some good guests who I enjoy getting the perspective of on us or CFB or CBB in general.

Listening to Dabo Swinney or another coach from Clemson who coached with Morris there, don't recall his name, or someone like that gives valuable info on what to expect from our new coach.

He has a lot of good guests actually. It's when he starts taking calls or going on his little rants that I usually exercise my right to hit the off button. Like Jim Rome and a lot of other hosts, Bo likes to stir the pot and get irate callers or "me too-ers" to up the ratings.

He plays "devil's advocate". Before Morris was hired, Bo was on his soap box, tub thumping for him as the greatest thing since Lombardi. Now, he is throwing cold water on any expectations and starting the "you can't win in the SEC without all 4-5 star players" and how we have to recruit better players than what we have, yada, yada, yada. I'm paraphrasing, but I get tired of all this blather within days after signing day.

It can't help recruiting for people to parrot his "at the end of the day" cliches about our recruiting or lack thereof. It's not his job to don pom-poms and cheerlead for us, it's also not his job to run the program down. When posters on here take his claims as the gospel, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, creating a kind of narrative that no coach can win here. Not true!

When most programs have back to back years like we had in 2010-11, the talking heads and "ditto-heads" say the sky is falling, it won't last. When another program does that, they say make way for the new dynasty...

The talking heads always lump Alabama and Auburn together like they are equal, when they are not! Look at the won-loss record the last 5-10 years. When was the last time Saban was said to be on the "hot seat?"

Bo is just being Bo, so just keep your preset finger limbered up and ready at all times.

 I don't see that at all... Bo usually does a good job of letting the callers make their points and he steers it back to the middle for perspective. I don't hear him as being "negative" or a "homer" either. I think he usually looks at different sides of every argument and he seems to let the callers make their points and is generally respectful of their opinions. He is a little sarcastic, but its usually pretty funny.
He gets some great regulars, too. Michael from Stuttgart, Tigerbait, Eddie from Clarksville, Tim from Little Rock... golden radio when those guys call.
I think we are lucky to have Bo here in Arkansas, he's good enough to go to a bigger market if he wanted to but I think he likes it here.

These guys see him as negative because he is not all " it's all good, the Hogs can win with lesser talent if they will just try harder" etc. Whats funny is they make fun of Rick Schaffer for saying exactly those type of things.

That's difference between us.  The only time I listen is when I happen to be driving, but the nature of the job is I might be in the vehicle for 15-30 minutes   One of those callers comes on and it immediately gets changed. 

I heard a portion of his rant today.  Calling out Twist and Porksoda was amusing.  Defending Bart's rant on Long's firing was not.  Guess I have little patience with anyone who isn't capable of understanding why Long needed to go.

Since we know they are reading this I'd like to see Bart show in a forum like this and defend his views.
