As a Missouri fan, you hit the nail right on the head, if you start winning people will start throwing money at it, and you tell it like it is, that's why I like your show. But I think within the next year or two, it's going to be impossible to keep up with what these kids want.
if u want NIL to boom, then u need to hire the RIGHT GUY!!!!!!!!
Who is the right guy? Nobody wants this job. Horrible fan base and you have to play half the top 10 every year.
Ill buy the razorback nuggets or the tusk beer or the memorabilia but my financial situation is week to week so i will not be just sending 50 a month to edge or anything like that
People are consumers. If the product sucks, people are going to keep their money.
In this case, people's investment can improve the product.
@@morefiction3264Or..throw good money after bad...🤑
@@morefiction3264 not if they make terrible hires. Then you might as well burn it or use it for TP.
@@DontHateItsBased Let me guess. You were on the Full Tilt Boogie train.
@@morefiction3264 ummm what? What does that even mean?
Yurachek’s got a lot of nerve. He went cheap to get Pittman instead of paying for Kiffin. Now, Old Mrs has got a top 10 football program and our coach is 1-9 in one point games. He put us two years behind the eight ball by publicly protesting and privately fighting against Nil. Texass, aTm, etc, hit the ground running. We’re not blaming Sam Pittman, Hunter, we’re blaming you.
You say things like they are fact but have no actual proof of these claims. Come on man.
@@B1055BH Google it.
@@B1055BHunrelated but nice pfp i love tssf
Kiffin was never going to come here. No good coach wanted this job after Chad Morris.
@@garydavis8213 fighting against NIL was a worthy fight. It has ruined College Football
I don’t understand why you can’t make one time payments to nil even is it’s $5 if everyone gives that it adds up ..makes no since to me
Minimum is 50 to arkansas edge every month
He clearly doesn't understand the fan base. Most people can't afford to be philanthropists. You've got to give people something for their money and allow small one-time donations.
@@aardvarmario right
It is a double edge sword. We can’t get any better because we can’t afford the talent and nobody willing to pay cause of lack of talent and we’ve just been losing. But yurachek put us behind the ball that’s on him. Not on Sam Pittman or any other coach at Arkansas it’s Yuracheks failure and I do think he should be fired for that.
Everyone says HY is a good AD. But for the life of me, I don’t see it. He alienated Muss to the point to took an inferior job. He backed away from Lane Kiffin out of ego and cheapness and that blew up on his face. He’s horrible with NIL. And let’s be real here. HUNTER DIDNT HIRE CALIPARI. CHICKEN MAN HIRED HIM. HUNTER WAS JUST THE MIDDLE MAN.
*losing
@@Sam-o7x1t I typed a whole paragraph and spelled 1 thing wrong. You wrote 1 word and had to edit. Sad.
I mean fans go to games, buy merch, support booster orgs, ect. Now the fans have to straight up buy the fucking players as well. NIL is THE WORST THING to ever happen to college athletics.
It's even hurting player development with players bouncing from school to school.
And did y'all see, or read about, Clint Stoerner's response to Yurachek's speech?
It was only a few weeks ago that Sam said, "This is a good football team." ... No, Sam. It's not. And they should have been mad after OSU.
I'm not giving a dime to that school. We have MILLIONS!
Hunter is an idiot. He stood up there and loved to talk about Cal and how he did all that. He didn't do shit. Tyson did that. Now he comes out and says the fans are to blame. It's just another distraction about how he fucked up the football program by extending Sam, and now will have to fire him because Pittman is a FRAUD. He is to blame for the mess the football program is in. It's his hire(unlike Cal), his decision to give him a raise and extension he didn't earn or deserve. This is exactly what happened to Hunter here in Houston. Tillman was going to fire him if he hadn't left for the UA. the NIL money is a problem because Hunter and Sam don't like it. This is all on them. Nobody else.
We actually have billions but you cannot use that money for NIL...Incase you didn't know
@@ArkMud Yes but the ability to get the NIL money is contingent on performance from the team and coaches.
I would agree about Sam in one aspect and that's that he doesn't get his team up for games like he has to do. He talks about a team being angry, this team should be angry as F 100% of the time
@@davidelam631 And the performance of the team is contingent on the quality of athletes we can get and the way we can get better athletes is through NIL which has to come from outside the school.
It's your problem. You have money. Many people in Arkansas live paycheck to paycheck.
Once again - it's not the fans responsibility to fund the salaries for the players. Winning, proven coaches have no issue generating money from donors if the product and the reputation to be a winning, well ran program. Hunter and Sam have fucked our football program up. I was told that a lot of boosters said that NO MORE MONEY will be given until there is a marked improvement within the football team.
Pittman has a direct responsibility for NIL. Like, for instance, last year. What happened to the O line? I thought the O line was Pittman's main thing. I know Pittman is disappointed in NIL and we're disappointed in Pittman.
Yurachek is trying to get the heat off Pittman with his comments about NIL.Blame the fans for Pittmans ineptitude.
Would you rather yurachek lie and say our nil is going great and we have plenty?
Put a winning product on the field and maybe fans will open up their wallets a bit. Tough economy to be asking for handouts though.
He is a clown Kiffin did what any other coach would have done. He got mad and hired a OL coach who in year 5 is still a OL coach. Giving Pittman that huge buyout was a mistake. This clown hated NIL at the beggining.
You know! I never understood why the brass gives everything to the basketball program the best coach in college, however they won’t do the same for the football team! The football team is what built the athletic program, championship frank broyles, Lou jholtz!!!! Come on man!
I've been saying this for years. Yuracheck is the problem. He's a cheap ass who likes to experiment turning coordinators into head coaches. Pittman is not a head coach. He likes to hire ex head coaches as coordinators so he feels like he can sit on autopilot.
Jerry Jones ponying up a little NIL funding would be nice…. But you’re right Hunter, blame the fans. Stop neutral site games. Instant revenue boost. LR couldn’t even fill War Memorial halfway for opening game. Friggin joke! Ok, rant over
The AD was spot-on! Championships will be bought in college sports until the NCAA, etc. gets the NIL stuff under control.
The Grove Collective (the Ole Miss NIL) has more members than Yurachek thinks. Instead of 5,000 members, they are close to hitting the 7,000 member mark.
Don't we require a donation to the Razorback Foundation to buy priority for your seats?
University of Arkansas endowment: $1.6bil.
University of Mississippi endowment: $840mil.
Our university is worth twice as much as Old Mrs, for a reason. That Yurachek can’t find the money is a HIM problem.
Yuracek needs to get a group of these mega donors to commit $$ for 10 years to get the program to a place where ordinary people want to give. Otherwise Arkansas needs to accept that it lives with Mississippi State in the basement of the SEC.
Too bad you cannot use that money for NIL, If that was the case we would not have an issue
@@ArkMud No, it cannot be used, but it tells you that we’ve got more/larger donors to the university of Arkansas. We’re a richer school and a richer state v Mississippi.
Mississippi produces twice as many NFL players as Arkansas and has better access to Alabama and Florida.
@@morefiction3264 Not relevant to the monetary discussion.
How much NIL are we spending on Basketball compared to the rest of the SEC? The money is there. Yurachek just spent a truck load on Basketball. We have to decide if we're a Basketball school or football school.
Who monitors thr $$$ the Foundation spends/holds ? My family had season tickets in football and basketball for decades. It's a requirement to pay so much per ticket to Foundation. I had 4 tickets in Hog Heaven and price per ticket for football was over $200 per game. If some can't go to game and you're trying to sell tickets for face value for $125. Under the Morris era. Good luck. Don't have these tickets anymore
Where do we donate to the football program??
Arkansas edge
There’s nothing wrong with paying people what they are worth. The players deserve to be paid, and Arkansas will get the team it pays for. NIL, good or bad, is here to stay, so might as well embrace it.
Joe Biden took all my extra money.
10% for the big guy.
I guess the logic, if you're a relatively poor state like Arkansas is to get some big money doners (Waltons, Tyson, Hunt) to make big one time donation, buy a good team, and then hope more money comes to the winning team.
Maybe the BOT and Oaklawn investors shouldn't be so worried about trying to kill competition casinos great NIL promos....
Arkansas has ten universities in the state with college football teams. Tax every person in the state of Arkansas over the age of 18 $5 for each team for NIL. Yes, I have actually heard people propose this! Lol
If we will donate and have $ then we get great players and guess what you win then. So everyone donate
I would hate to have that job. Raising money for NIL to be relevant in a crowded super conference. It's all for temporary gain. There is no longer a will to be stable. I know there has never been much stability at UofA, with the exception of the baseball and track teams over the years. We just don't have "EVERYTHING" these kids are looking for. No matter how much we spend on NIL, no matter how much we build new facilities, it's location location location. Unless you have a golden cow like Coach Cal is in basketball, for us to have that at the football HC position, we have to hire that kinda of guy, but in NCAA football market. A golden cow at football HC! We will never get the Ohio State, Georgia and Alabama NIL type players until we do. Those colleges are NFL factories. They were that way before NIL. NIL is great for the players. The UofA NIL gave KJ Jefferson a loaded Dodge Demon, other boosters gave him a paycheck every month for 2 yrs. And it equaled....transfer. At the end, what was the point? He played in the SEC, as a starter, and won...what the guy before him won, the guy before him, and probably the guy after him will when it's all over. So, NIL, besides the player getting nice stuff for a while, how did the TEAM benefit from KJ's NIL while he was here?
🐽💩. Money isn’t the issue. Coaching? Meh. Players? Great AAC team. Average Big XII team. Fans? I’ve seen more excitement at a Class A high school. Hell’s bells Arkansas is sitting in the middle of Walmart and Tysons. NIL is an Athletic Director failure. Woo Pig? Hasn’t been strong since Coach/AD Broyles left the University.
David Bazil arta be the A.D
We are not going to get good NIL until Pittman is gone.
Correct. And it has been said as much from WM and JBH.
Arkansas AD. u need to wake up and realize that YOU HIRED the WRONG GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The guy who has gotten us elite hires throughout his tenure? Outside of football what sport is lagging behind?
Arkansas already asks for the highest ticket prices in the whole nation!! $100/ household....my ***
In today's college football 🏈
REALITY is
fans have to step up with NIL $$ REALITY even if you're losing you have no choice!
If you care to be relevant in football,
Your reason of
wanting winning results first will only Keep your team at Bottom of both SEC standings DOLLARS SPENT and WINS!
REALITY if your fans rank 13th in NIL $
Your football team will rank very close in wins.
REALITY talent wins in SEC complain all you want it's not gonna change that's REALITY!!!!
Yurachek can donate 😂 his own money. Give it to a cousin and let him donate it for him 😂
Illegal mafia stuff idk what to tell you playa
Money doesn’t come out of nowhere. He’s right. You want NIL? PAY UP. DONATE. In my opinion if you aren’t donating to the cause you should keep your mouth shut about it.
Exactly what you said! 💯
Win games and you would have NIL period
Cause YOU say so???? Fuck off.
Yurachek can donate 😂 his own money. Give it to a cousin and let him donate it for him 😂
