I’m interested to see how he does there. I could see it going either way.



If CM is fired in 5 years he'll drop back down to the G5 and be a lot richer and no worse for wear than if he had stayed here.

When CM is fired in 3 years he'll drop back down to the G5 and be a lot richer and no worse for wear than if he had stayed here.

is there an exact quote?


In his opening address to the Arkansas players he said "When I left Clemson to go to SMU, people said why? SMU has been one of the bottom programs in the history of college football for a long long time. Why? Why coach? You're killing your career. Top assistant. Top offense coordinator. Why?"

That's Verbatim. Then he went spouting off about some crap about opportunity and how that's what's in front of Arkansas.

I'm not saying that some of there isn't some truth in that, but after we just paid you $7 million dollars to go 14-22, really? Talk about spiting in the face of your old team.

Uh, that’s not really “spitting in the face,” and it’s literally true. He took over the worst program in America and three years later had us in a bowl. Yes, he left some wins on the table and there were some blowout losses but Chad made us a lot better. That’s undeniable.

I wish you could talk to some of the recruits parents
that have spoken that Chad lied his arse off too just hours before he left.

Scott Frost was returning to his alma mater and Nebraska is a class act school. The media certainly applauds Frost for coaching his bowl game and keeping all of his coaches. Would Frost have stayed if UCF was playing in the equivalent of the Boca Raton Bowl? The Gilmer coach seemed less classy than Chad.

At least Todd Orlando stayed at UH for the bowl game even though he knew he was going to UT.
