Bad Arkansas. Very Bad. No dessert for you tonight.

Post by PonyTime »

I see that they pretty much got off scott free for doing the same thing that we did to get the DP - the NCAA is such a fraud. But what else is new????

I guess Frank Broyles has pictures. What a crock. But then again they can't make the entire SEC Bowl ineligible, what would the BCS and the Old Furniture Bowl do?

Guys...why do you keep doing this to yourselves? Arkansas is an untouchable. The Dealth Penalty is extinct.

Kurt is right. Not only is the DP extinct, but evenif it wasn't, the NCAA would never hand it down to a state school in the nation's premier football conference. And when you consider that UA is the only athletics in an entire state, pro or D-IA, you have to figure they'd never cut off that many fans who could buy tickets, t-shirts, and most importantly, watch TV to fuel those revenues.

The 'solution' to all of this is for SMU to 'come back' and have an UNDEFEATED season! Can you imagine the headlines? And the news coverage and publicity this would generate? "SMU Bounces Back from Death Penalty!" This is how we get EVERYONE's attention and show 'em all that SMU survived!!!!! And LIVES!!!!!

This doesn't affect us. Arkansas isn't a major force in Texas recruiting and we don't play the Razorbacks. The limited scholarships (an oxymoron at Arkansas if ever there was one) will hurt Arkansas over the long haul.

The NCAA is the most fraudulent organzation (excluding the US government) on the face of the earth. Frank has been in tight with the NCAA for years so I am sure all those golf games at Augusta National paid off (Yes, Frank is a Member).

Don't expect justice form the NCAA. ND gets a tiny insect bite of a penalty and I am surprised the NCAA didn't give Arkansas an award for "honesty."
