Funny how most of them abandon their logic once numbers are put on them.

The only thing I have discussed here, and gave the reason for my opinions had to do with those numbers saying A-State has had the most talented roster of players in the SBC, and predicting their record.

Don't care if they believed me, and ultimately they would be able to tell anyway.

Let UALR start football and see.

Again, you've said exactly nothing, and provided no actual point or information on anything.

Actually I've not said two things.

A-State has the most talented roster of players in the SBC, and UALR football will destroy A-State football.

Poster ask me to explain the latter and I told him why I was going to decline.

Have already explained how I came about the better talent conclusion.

Making an assertion, and then when a contradictory point is made, just repeating that assertion, is not actually saying something. Just as a vague reference to your own analysis is not actually a response to criticism of your analysis.

I would say making the assertion is in fact saying something.

I was not responding to any criticism of my analysis.

Mentioning the methodology employed, and time elapsed since employing that methodology was intended to give the poster a reason for not wanting or even being able to do what he requested in his post.

I don't see that arkstfan responded to my reply to his post, so I hope that means he was not offended.
Lol, an amazing word salad.

You guys could get fleas in your coordinated attacks. Tell your master he can post for himself.

I'm not trying to take this message board away from him.

And anyone who disagrees with you, or think your debating tactics are disingenuous, must be representing some evil force like Arkstfan or Blake Anderson. Who did you learn from? Goebbels?

I would have gone to a UALR football game when I lived in Cabot..... much sooner than I would go to a game in Jonesboro. Maybe the bases will add a few butts in seats.

Think we were thinking UCA when we we brainstorming but playing UALR in football will almost certainly help attendance, and destroy the program.

WTF is going on in this thread? I feel like I've stepped into the twilight zone.

And I have no dog in this fight, so it isn't even like I'm offended by Seminole's opinion. I just can't figure out what the hell he's trying to say.



I feel like he wrote that line for Clinton...."It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is"

No No little puppy i have nothing against your master, or your HC.

I did not mean to offend him, but when his little puppies show up i know i have.

So go fetch him and say i'm sorry and he can put his little puppies back in their pens. I do hope he gives you a bone, because you are well trained little puppies, and keep this message board under control.

You have to experience him for awhile before you can see what he is doing.

We're to the point now where he tries to create doubt about motives and suggest conspiracies to distract from his actual lack of cogent arguments.

I've often wondered what SI did for his living. It appears he's an efficiency expert from these posts. Did Remington follow your suggestions?

RE: Interesting twist in Little Rock
I thought the pigs were done in Little Rock, but I get the sense that some folks on the UA Board of Trustees want them to continue to play a game (or 2) there and Long being against games there may have been a big part of his downfall.

UAF wants 10 million in stadium improvements to consider staying. On one hand, I think their staying in LR could hurt the chances of UALR football. On the other hand, we'd get 10 million in improvements to a stadium where we would be the main tenant. Money the state would never agree to give us for stadium renovations. So I'm not sure how to feel about the whole thing as a UALR fan.

RE: Interesting twist in Little Rock
If I were a UALR fan I'd want them gone and the sooner the better. But take great care. That 10 million might fall on your back depending on how real the requirements are for those upgrades. Gut feeling is that they are just a pig excuse to vacate the premises.

I also believe that the money isn't right for you guys at this point. While some students want a football program I'm betting if you asked the majority the numbers would be against it when it ups their fee per hour. The backers and the press are willing to forego that angle right now but the reckoning will probably happen when they announce student fee increases. Couple that with state funding being cut due to low graduation rates (legislators passed the new funding formula last session) and the rubber meets the road.

I tend to agree with you. If the pigs made it clear they were leaving LR for good, it is possible that some big money folks might step up to support UALR football. Possible, but I'm not sure how likely. Without big money guarantees from movers and shakers in LR (most all of whom are likely pig fans first) it will never happen.

Sorry that you cannot be mature and have to insult folks.

I have presented logic.
1. A-State does not sign many Arkansas players.
2. Of the players Arkansas State signs, few are major contributors.
3. A-State's donations come almost exclusively from alums.
4. A-State's ticket sales are made almost exclusively to alums. A-State does have some corporate sales and those are made almost exclusively to businesses located with 20 minutes of the stadium.

I'll add more.
5. Watch the video board, peruse the game programs, look at the banners in the stadium, listen to the ads. They are from businesses based in Northeast Arkansas and/or businesses owned by alums.

Logically one can conclude that UALR football poses minimal risk to A-State recruiting and even less risk to A-State's finances.

You have stated UALR football will damage A-State football.
I asked you to elaborate.
You said you did a spreadsheet.
Well says nothing.
Others pose the same question and you go childish and don't answer and insult them for asking.

You don't have an explanation is the only thing that makes sense based on the evidence.
