Arkansas fans wander up and down South Broadway, doing their obnoxious pig call, displacing the blue wave that used to enjoy celebrating after our championships. Disgusting. 🤮
I can’t help wondering what’s going through Cal‘s mind right now. He’s taking Arkansas to new heights, recruiting lottery picks, and embracing his rightful status as one of the nation’s most successful coaches. Meanwhile, we sit here with our anatomy in our hand, wondering if we’ll get a single recruit. My how times have changed.
Careful what you wish for, you might just get it.

Good for him. I've never been a Cal hater and never will be. UK fans getting upset were only kidding themselves thinking he would not have success given his historical coaching prowess and talent accumulation. He was bound to have some success in Fayetteville.

No one cares but how many Arkansas fans on this page it’s looking like ASR+ page. This page last few days has been embarrassing to be a Kentucky fan. The anti pope and love fest for cal shows how many fake fans on this page.

We lost to Oakland and St. Peter’s and didn’t have success at all in the SEC tournament in cal’s last years here. Cal got re-motivated. Even though times are kinda tough (and really questionable) here now, a change still needed to be made. I hoped for a change (like some) and I still stand by that.

Shoutout to the Matt Jones mafia. Turns out this was a Mitch Barnhart problem, not a cal problem.
Cal is laughing at all of us and rightfully so.

There was a collection of fans, including myself, that didn't want Pope when he got hired. I said after he got hired that I'd rather just run it back with Cal then bring on the Pope era.

I never thought he wouldn’t have SOME success there. I don’t think he was ever going to get it back here.

Lol this is a shitshow! Everyone acts like Coach Cal is this horrible coach because how things ended at UK , but the man has taken 3 different schools to the final 4 and it wouldn’t surprise me if he takes Arkansas to the final 4.
