Louisiana will open 2013 at Arkansas

Who wants to bet that Malzahn will be HC at Ark when we play that game?

Malzahn will not

if he does leave, he is probably going back to auburn because chizik is on the hot seat

wouldnt be so sure, he is from arkansas

.and that's why he won't be the coach. Don't think for a minute that Arkansas would hire stAte's coach. They refuse to acknowledge their existence.

Is the ASU and AU relationship just as contemptuous as the UL/LSU relationship?

And even if thats the case and it is, I still dont see that as a reason for them not to hire Gus if thats who they want.

LSU had no issue hiring away our softball coach several years back.
And if something would happen with Les and he leaves I really dont see what would stop LSU from wanting HUD if they deemed him the best person for the job.

I would hate to lose that one. We'll catch loads of grief from the hoax.

Unless of course we best ulm in november, win the conference and claim another bowl trophy.

Well, that could work the other way too. I mean, how long can UA go with stAte having a better HC? The Wolves will not lose many games while he is there, and UA can not allow stAte to field such high quality product for very long.

Also, if I were Gus, I wouldn't touch Auburn with a 10 foot pole. That place is a cesspool of NCAA sanctions waiting to rain down.

Possibly worse. Arkansas doesnt play stAte in anything. As Jay mentions, they dont acknowledge their existence. At the very least, LSU plays us in most sports.

I'm not trying to make this a yes he is leaving or anything like that. but to put it in perspective here are the SEC Coaches salaries. It is pretty obvious they are all over a million.


Alabama’s Nick Saban – $4,833,333
LSU’s Les Miles – $3,856,417
Arkansas’ Bobby Petrino – $3,638,000
Auburn’s Gene Chizik – $3,500,000
Florida’s Will Muschamp – $3,221,000
Georgia’s Mark Richt – $2,939,800
South Carolina’s Steve Spurrier – $2,828,000
Ole Miss’ Houston Nutt – $2,771,750
Mississippi State’s Dan Mullen – $2,500,000
Tennessee’s Derek Dooley – $2,330,591
Kentucky’s Joker Phillips – $1,702,489
Vanderbilt’s James Franklin – N/A

Chop, there is no comparison. UL/LSU are kissin cousins in comparison to UA/ASU

I don't know how they refuse to acknowledge ASU's existence half the cars I saw parked on ASU's campus last season had Arkansas stickers & razorback emblems on them. They even made their little puppy look as much like a hog as they could.
