Arkansas looked as good as they have all year tonight but how much is fools gold? We do have a common opponent so far and we made easy work of them while they struggled a lot of the game.

We are definitely better than they are right now, but we will see if Cal changes anything. They are talented. I doubt it though.

Did they just become D1? I have never even heard of them.
They've been D-1 since 1973-1974 though they've never played in an NCAA Tournament. Lost the 1969 and 1973 NAIA Championship games. Only D-1 post season victory was in the 1974 NIT. They play in the MEAC.

Their two victories this season were against Penn State-Schuylkill and Gallaudet.

It’s common sense to discuss a team our former coach who was here for 15 years is coaching.

In all seriousness, I think Arkansas can be a decent to good team if they get a consistent Johnell Davis. They don't have enough to compete for a championship and I think they'll probably end up with a 7-9 seed, but they'll have some good wins this year. I still root for Adou and would love to see him have an All-SEC type year as long as its not at UKs expense
So they'd basically be like we were the past 6-7 years or so.

LOL, I knew before I logged on this Am this thread would be here. Couldn't bash Cal for barely winning, so bash the opponent. Never stop crazies, never stop. Angle everything to fit your agenda. Some of you are too obsessed with Cal and by proxy, Arkansas. Let it go !!!! Focus on UK, I think we play WKU tonight ?? No talk of it, just Arkansas talk.

You rubes don’t own this board. If people want to talk about Cal, it’s their right. If that bothers you, don’t read it and scroll on by. It’s actually quite simple.

might play him some at the stretch 4 so it wouldn’t be an issue. But I doubt they’ll actually do that.
Just quoted this to support my prediction that Cal isn’t gonna last long in Fayetteville. I like to jump on hogville and laugh at the fans rationalizing his coaching, but for the most part, Arkansas fans know hoops. I think their patience will wear thin much sooner than most programs, and it seems like the doubt is already creeping into the fanbase.

Basically, he picked an awful program to jump ship to if his approach wasn’t going to change. I think that fanbase is done with him by 2026

People discussing Arkansas/Cal rustles some posters something fierce. It’s the same ones over and over that make a big deal of it. Literally the same exact ones always ***** about it. Something like a pattern. 🤣

Strangely enough, they also seem to be the same ones who defended Cal to the bitter end here (with a few exceptions)

And YOU rubes do not own it either. If people want to call out childish, petty behavior, they can do it. See how that works ??? Spending more time discussing another team and former coach instead of YOUR team kind of seems like a waste of time. I only call those out in hopes of not having to see the multiple Arkansas and Cal threads. One can only hope they go away and only have UK threads, at least more UK based ones instead of Cal / Arkansas ones.

There are more threads on here about UConn/Hurley than about Cal on the first page. There are threads about Duke/ Kansas , threads about all sorts of basketball stuff but we're not allowed to talk about Cal ?

So do you not want to hear people talk down about Cal or are you angry at him for leaving or just got so angry at him taking us downwards you dont want to read his name? either way , for your own sake just ignore the threads about Cal/Arkansas.

How long do you think it will be before some of our fans OBSESSION with Cal will disappear from our forums.
Dude, half of their team either played or were committed to play here . Couple that with the former coach that many despised . Of course people are going to OBSESS over what they are doing. From what I can tell , the ones worried about this “OBSESSION “ are mostly the same ones that didn’t want any negative talk about Cal when he was here .

Right now the best thing Cal has going for him is Z shooting the 3 from the top of the key which also opens the middle for Theiro and the rest of his team made up of mostly “slashers” . I’m interested to see what he does when transfer center from Tennessee gets healthy. Arkansas fans think he will be a big help , but when he plays what will happen with Z ? Kinda similar to us last year when we were missing our bigs early in the year and style of play suffered when they returned.

Yep pretty much. Although don’t think they will be as good in the regular season (this Arkansas team is much worse than our team last year or in 2021-22 for example)

******** read some of my posts on Cal. I'm just sick of him and all the negative crap associated with him. yet many of our fans can't move on. We got something positive going on here yet so many of you just want to wallow in Cal ****. The truth is that now that he is gone alot of folks don't give a rats rectum what he or Arkansas are doing.

Again. If you don’t like it, scroll on by or put em on ignore. Why is that so difficult to understand?
