Woopigsooie, I know that you arkansas fans are just loving this year, and rightfully so, but please keep a little bit of perspective when you are talking. Here is a great reason why teams like Arkansas and Ole Miss have never had consistency in the SEC, I know that they have had some really good years, but as far as consistently being in the top, that just hasn't happened: Ya'll are not able to recruit elite talent every year, some years, ya'll do really well, but consistently, you guys are just not there yet. Don't believe me? Since 2002, ya'll have finished above 3rd place in the West 2 times. Ole Miss has finished above 3rd place 2 times. So you see, ya'll clearly haven't been able to sustain fielding good teams. I know you might be thinking, "Well we have Petrino, so that is going to change." Really? Here is what your team is losing this year: Top 10 NFL pick.
3 out of 5 offensive linemen. Probably will lose your best receiver and will lose your all-american tight end. 4 guys on defense, not bad, but not that good considering your defense isn't good anyways. I know you think that your backup QB is just going to come in and do just as good as Mallett, and he may, but please look at how other teams like Texas and Florida did this year with new QB's replacing NFL QB's. I know that your guy had a good game this year, but so did Texas QB last year. Just wanted to put a little bit of perspective because you might not want to put the cart before the horse for next year.

I'm going to say it again...
Arkansas had a GREAT year. Like a Really Great team.
But their main competition will always be LSU, Auburn and Alabama.
Even with their great season they still went 1 and 2 versus these 3 teams. That's just the way of life for Arkansas.
As for it looking bad on Petrino to leave Arkansas this soon...like he actually gives a shite. Yeh it's bad press initially but you don't hear shite about him or Saban and the way they left their NFL teams. NONE. All is basically forgotten and that's what winning does.
