And I haven't given up hope of winning the lottery! John L. should just be happy to get out of Fayetteville alive.

It's funny because he's crazy.

Somebody slap some sense into this guy...Oh wait, nevermind, he just slapped himself...

And John L. Smith is actually off his nut. And actually broke. And, in a few weeks, he'll be actually fired.

Poor guy is in way over his head. At this point, it's clear that he took the job to alleviate some of the overwhelming debt he's in, and never had the smarts nor passion to run this team properly. Wish him luck with his financials, because a second season with the Razorbacks is the least of his worries.

He knows how to SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!! That's why he hasn't given up hope.

When told OSU set school record for 50+ games this year, UFM said "That's good. We're gonna break that next year."

I think Rick Neuhiesal (sp?) tried this approach at UCLA last year too.

How did that work out....

Well ya, I mean of course he hasn't. No one who has dated out of their league ever thinks they'll get dumped....

John L couldn't coach Lassie to bark. That's why I support him 100% in his efforts to retain his job at Arkansas. Don't let them push you out John L. I'm starting a petition for you buddy.
