Ten Great Myths Index

MYTH – Arkansas has never been one of the big boys, and therefore cannot hope to be one of the big boys again. Since Arkansas has never been elite, they cannot expect to ever be in the same company as other elite programs. (more…)

Ten Great Myths Index

MYTH – Arkansas fans are a crazy bunch who need to accept their fate as a mediocre program, who ran off a very solid coach because he didn’t win a national championship, and who have unrealistic expectations for competition. (more…)
