Not only have they gutted football for Calapari and basketball, they made this recruiting blunder.



Remember Minnesota QB Drake Lindsey? Guy is a heck of a player and will be a high NFL draft pick. Has Minnesota 4-1 and about to be 3-0 in Big Ten play. What I did not know about him is that he was the Arkansas Gatorade Player of the Year at Fayetteville High School, which is on the campus of the University of Arkansas.







Arkansas did not offer him. Did not actively recruit him. He went to high school within 500 yards of the football offices and they passed.

To make matters worse, his grandfather Jim Lindsey is a Razorback football legend. Not only that, but he was 9-figure net worth guy, amassing 40,000 apartments and 42 golf courses through his company Lindsey Management. Jim recently passed away and left Arkansas squat.

Got dang. It don't matter if you have to keep showing him which direction the offense is going down the field and he is suffering from ricketts ... you offer the grandson of a 9 figure net worth legacy every time.

Hog fans are ready to revolt. They’re looking down the barrel of another winless SEC season, which would give them a 21-game SEC losing streak. It would also be their fifth winless conference season since 2013. Prior to 2013, they hadn’t had a winless conference season since 1942.

One of his companies among other things built apartments in MS in Starkville, Canton, and Oxford called The Links and they all have a 9 hole golf course at them with unlimited use. They (The Links) are in several states in the S.E. and M.W. US including MO, AL , OK, MS, KS, NE, TN, and AR

That's probably worse than us ignoring Grisham's kid in baseball. At least we were decent when we did that, and Grisham's kid wasn't that good.

I think the fan base already has revolted. Saw a video from game day where nobody even set up to tailgate pregame

Yea, I remember this guy. Couldn't score a TD against an sec team...at home. Maybe that's why he's a gopher.

For the 1000 times. Waltons DGA17 about Arkansas. One of the daughters is married to owner of the broncos. Some of the family went to Mizz. Walton’s dont contribute to NIL like some of you all think
Tyson all in on basketball. Hell they had John Tyson at the LR TD club and he was asked about football. His quote. “Texas tech has oil we have chicken”. Dude is all in on CAL

Arkansas is the worst funded football program in the SEC currently. I know I will get those average posters disagreeing with me but it’s true. When some of you want to bad mouth Selmon remember Cohen is AD at AU and HY is at Arkansas. We have come a long long way in the last 24/36 months. More work to do but the pendulum is starting to swing our direction

I read an article about how they used to give some money but a few years ago they were backing someone as chancellor but Tyson and Hunt were backing someone else, and Arkansas went against the Walton’s. They’ve backed off even more since that happened

The Waltons, especially Helen, are very generous to northwest Arkansas. She has bigger plans than an 18 yr old that may or may not produce wins and could be gone in a year.
she is building/has built a new med school and whole health hospital. I've heard that the first 1500 med students will be free, after that at drastically lower cost than regular med school.
10s and maybe 100s of millions on bike trails, parks, etc.
The focus is much bigger community minded than UPig football program.
