  1. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    WPS ! ! ! ! :P :P :P

  2. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Wow ! MRP and Me alone in the same room :P Did ya bring your gloves MRP ?

  3. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    It’s a Rainin three’s

  4. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    On us !

  5. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Where is everybody ?

  6. Ima Hawg Ima Hawg says:

    What’s with the slow first half starts? And, can’t we set a screen, even if we called for an illegal screen for goodness sake. Just man up body on body.

  7. Blake Blake says:

    so what are things looking like? a typical sloppy first half?

  8. MRPRFCT MRPRFCT says:

    This game is a must win. We can’t lose at home. We need to make it to postseason play. We need the crowd to be in it big-time. The recruits need all the positive vibes.

  9. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    And block out .

  10. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Awesome block !

  11. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Nobody here so I am gonna just watch the game for awhile.

    I’ll be back !

  12. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    4 minute TV timeout. We look tired or something. Uninspired maybe ?

  13. HogFanBrad HogFanBrad says:

    Last game I said I wouldn’t be worried unless we were down by more than 8 at half. This week I’m gonna say I’m not worried unless we are down by more than 13. Let’s hope for a great 2nd period.

  14. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Hey Brad,
    Thank God we can shoot FT’s

  15. dwp007 dwp007 says:

    I have no access, but this game is a must, win wise.
    Go Hogs!

  16. MRPRFCT MRPRFCT says:

    We have got to rebound better.

  17. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Well, down by 2 at the half. Great considering how we played.

  18. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    Auburn got away with at least three travels taking the ball to the basket.

  19. Blake Blake says:

    so only down 2 after a typical bad first half for this team. lets blow Auburn out in this second half.

  20. joshua joshua says:

    We played lazy the first 10 minutes…not moving our feet, not rebounding, no help defense. We picked it up a little towards the last half of the half.

    And why didn’t welsh get the ball to Fortson at the end of the half with 15 seconds left. He took it all the way and then we were completely out of wack and turned it over. Welsh is at his best when he realizes that he’s not the best!

    Honestly I think Cox played the best defense of anyone on the team in the first half. Did you see that guy try to back him down and Cox didn’t give an inch. He’s a very “heady”, underratted defensive guy.

  21. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    msu 29- fla 27 @ the half @ fla

  22. HogFanBrad HogFanBrad says:

    Yes Ron,
    Thank goodness for that. That last 30-40 seconds was just plain haphazard.

  23. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Like the announcer said: “Arkansas has them right where they want them. Arkansas trailing at the half.”

  24. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    HOGS did look flat. I hope CJP opens up the same can he did in the GA locker room.

  25. HogFanBrad HogFanBrad says:

    To tell the truth I wish we were down a little more. It seems to have been working to our advantage with the obvious exception of the KY game.

  26. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Britt looks just like Lee Mayberry in the face. Do you guys think so?

  27. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    Ron,

    I see the resemblance now that you mention it.

  28. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Washington and Powell needs to make Auburn’s bigs irrevent in the second half.

  29. Blake Blake says:

    whats the crowd like at the game today? bigger?

  30. joshua joshua says:

    Britt does sort of remind me of Mayberry…especially when he’s hitting those floaters in the lane. He’s earning playing time, for sure!

  31. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    *irrellevent

  32. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    It would be shameful if we don’t have a packed house.

  33. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Blake , are you listening to the game?

  34. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    With Auburn bringing their big guys inside, that should free Rotnei up for a couple of treys.

  35. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    Here we go…..

  36. Blake Blake says:

    yeah it would. anybody know what the announced attendance is?

  37. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    These are the things that make me pull my hair out:

    1. When Delvon Johnson subs for MW, there is no inside defensive presence. He just stands around. No intensity or aggresiveness. Looks lost.

    2. S. Welsh looks great at times with his 3 pt. shooting, but then looks horrible with his ball handling and lazy passes. Terrible for a Sr. guard.

    3. I know M. Powell is a True Freshman, but fouling outside the 3 pt. line has to stop.

    4. C. Fortson still tries to force some plays that don’t even exist.

    We had better come out with some defensive intensity and some real focus in the 2nd half.

  38. Blake Blake says:

    no Ron i am with my daughter at our winter carnival. just gamecasting on my phone

  39. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I havent heard the attendance yet Blake

  40. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I will tell you the attend. after the game, ok ?

  41. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    Good start Hogs!

  42. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Boo Yeah ! Clark for 3

  43. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    If we can stay out of foul trouble on the Auburn inside drives, we’ll be ok.

  44. BOSS HAWG BOSS HAWG says:

    where on line other than espn 360 can i watch the game

  45. Blake Blake says:

    thanks Ron. lets go hogs!

  46. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I think ESPN360 is it

  47. BOSS HAWG BOSS HAWG says:

    oh well i guess i will go hang out in the break room and hope no one finds me

  48. oldhog oldhog says:

    how about a score?

  49. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    50-49 Aub … 10.44 left

  50. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    AU’s experience and athleticism have pretty much controled this game so far.
    Fortson is reverting back to putting up silly 3 pt. shots again.
    We’re not playing with confidence. Someone really needs to step it up.

  51. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    54-49 Time out … we look tired

  52. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Welsh took alot of heat , but he has really worked on his game. Nice !

  53. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Washington just got hurt

  54. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    turned ankle I think

  55. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    Auburn up by 2. Powell going to the line after a layup.

  56. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    56-54 Aub … 7:54 left …. Nobles to get 1 FT to try for a 3 pt play after the TV timeout

  57. joshua joshua says:

    Powell has got to learn to stop only trying to draw fouls and make a move to score the ball. He’s too concerned about getting fouled.

  58. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Fla leads Miss St by 6

  59. joshua joshua says:

    THAT’S NOT A FOUL ON COX! That was great position D

  60. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Great defense

  61. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    it was Powell, My bad

  62. joshua joshua says:

    We need to put Nobles in for Defense. He’s really disturbing their gaurds

  63. Just a hog Just a hog says:

    whats the score

  64. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Clark for 3 ! ! !

  65. joshua joshua says:

    we’re down by one with about 2 minutes left

  66. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    63-62 aub

  67. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    I’d be suprised if we pulled this one out. AU just looks to be playing smarter and more focused than we are.

  68. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    aub will have the ball after the TO with 9 seconds to shoot.

  69. joshua joshua says:

    courney’s just not hitting those “wild” lay-ups today. We need a few of those to go in, soon!

  70. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I hope Washington can return.

  71. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    1:27 to play … Aub ball

  72. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    waller hit a duce … 65-62

  73. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Powell with the hoop and the harm !

  74. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Knox fouled out

  75. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    58.3 to go and we are tied ! ! !

  76. MRPRFCT MRPRFCT says:

    Let’s go Hogs!

  77. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Fortson scores 2, 12.7 seconds left and were up by 2

  78. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    UofA up by 2 with 12.7 seconds left. AU has the ball after the timeout.

    Play some D Hogs!!!

  79. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I would foul that 29% shooter

  80. MRPRFCT MRPRFCT says:

    Block out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on!!!!!

  81. WTF How did that happen? overtime…

  82. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    shit !
    OT

  83. joshua joshua says:

    you’ve got to be kidding me! Guys, you gotta play to the buzzer!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Oh well, I like our chances in OT, at home!

    C’mon Hogs!!!

  84. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    I’m gonna have a f’in’ heart attack. Come on HOGS!

  85. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    fla beat msu!!! We need this win!

  86. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    Wow! was that some luck by the Tigers or what?
    Desperation 3 pt. shot off the miss was an airball, but an AU player was there for the easy duece.

    This one goes into OT. Amazing.

  87. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Washington is out, I hope Powell can play without picking up fouls

  88. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Nice Pass

  89. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    fortson for 3 ~

  90. joshua joshua says:

    c’mon boys! It’s Rotnei time!

  91. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    ark leads 73-74 with 1:52 left

  92. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Powell is a STUD ! ! !

  93. oldhog oldhog says:

    What the heck is going on CBS had us winning at the end of regulation. Then they showed Auburn winning in OT and now they show us winning! I repeat what the heck!

  94. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Powell and Fort have the last 16 points

  95. Fortson is a STUD. WPSSSSSSSSSSS

  96. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Fort again ! 9 pts in a row !

  97. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    15.7 left Hogs lead 78 – 73 we have the ball !

  98. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    80 – 76 Rot at the line

  99. wow Auburn hitting the clutch 3 pointers

  100. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    ark leads 81 to 79 … 5 sec to go. Fort at the line for 2

  101. oldhog oldhog says:

    Someone tell me we won!

  102. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    I’m not believing this!

  103. joshua joshua says:

    If CJP puts Welsh into another minute of another game this year, I will officially call for his firing! The only good thing about Welsh is that he won’t be here next year! Running the baseline on that out of bounds play is a 7th grade mistake. Horrible.

    Atleast we won

  104. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    82 -79 … 4.2 sec Aub ball … Ark calls TO

  105. joshua joshua says:

    1st in the West! That’s hilarious!

  106. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    HOGS WIN ! ! ! !

  107. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    WOW!!!!

    WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PIIIIIIIIIIIG!!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIE!!!!

  108. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    We win in OT! 82-79.
    We’re in 1st place in the West. Can you believe it?

  109. joshua joshua says:

    Alright, who’s your player of the game?

    for me it’s the role players: Britt, Cox, Nobles (they played great defense)

  110. MRPRFCT MRPRFCT says:

    SEC West division leaders!

  111. Player of the game is Fortson, easily

  112. oldhog oldhog says:

    I knew I should have gone to that game! What was the attendance?

  113. PK PK says:

    that’s what i’m talking about…didn’t know if we’d have enough in the OT, but will found a way.

    well done hawgs

  114. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    I agree Peyton.

    I guess I’m a ‘bama fan this evening.

  115. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Fort had 24 pts … 10 reb …. 7 asst
    . I vote for Fort.

  116. Announcers said 16,000 were there.

  117. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Still waiting on the attend.

  118. Win Win says:

    I just had to swollow my heart cause I puked it up at the end of regulation! With LSU coming into BWA next Wednesday, and Miss St playing at home vs. Ole Miss, the Hogs have a chance to take a two game lead in the West.
    This is fun!!!!!!!!!!
    Much better than 2-14!!!!!!!
    If the Hogs can somehow win the West, Pelphrey will be the SEC Coach of the Year.

  119. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    I still see a lot of areas for improvement on this squad, but I’m becoming more and more impressed with our ability to finish games.

    Great job Hogs!

  120. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Mark Martin won the Pole for Daytona ! :P :P :P

  121. Andrew Andrew says:

    My heart skipped a beat when Auburn shot the beyond half court shot that almost went in.

  122. BOSS HAWG BOSS HAWG says:

    now thats what im talking bout WHO DAT SAID THEY GON BEAT DEM HOGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  123. Win, since Miss State is playing Ole Miss, the best arkansas can do is maintain a one game lead.

  124. RazorRandy RazorRandy says:

    That’s a hell of a game for the Junior recruits to get to watch. I had to listen to a lame assed auburn radio feed over the computer but I could hear the loud and hearty HOG CALLS going on. If that doesn’t get to a kid, then he does need to go elsewhere.

  125. am i dreaming? 1st place in west! go hogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  126. joshua joshua says:

    Yes, Courntey is the POG, but I figured that was obvious. I should have asked, “Besides Fortson, who was the POG?” That’s why I said that the unsung heroes today were Britt, Cox, and Nobles for their intensity on defense.

  127. HogFanBrad HogFanBrad says:

    Anyone hear anything about Washington’s injury status?

  128. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    C. Fortson is my pick for MVP, but I’m proud of how M. Powell stepped it up in OT in place of M. Washington. I love how versatile he looks for a big man.

    Also, our depth is coming around. Kudos to CJP for making it work.
    I’m just as proud for CJP as I am anyone. He deserves it.

  129. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    FYI …

    Rape Investigation Involving UA Basketball Players CompletePosted at 10:24:49 AM by Chris Bahn

    [10:37 a.m.] A special prosecutor appointed to investigate rape allegations against three University of Arkansas basketball players declared the matter “over.” No charges will be filed, according to the Arkansas Times blog.
    More from the Times on the case investigated by special prosecutor H.G. Foster

  130. BOSS HAWG BOSS HAWG says:

    Courtney Fortson In two word “DA TRUTH”

  131. BOSS HAWG BOSS HAWG says:

    If he (Fortson) cleans up his game a little bit and become a little more patient which he is. I can see him being very unstoppable at times

  132. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I should have waited to post that. Sorry for the bad timing. I just ran acrossed it while looking for the Attendance. :(

  133. keeperhawg keeperhawg says:

    Cortney Fortson for president! Without him we wouldn’t have won any SEC games! Go Hogs Go

  134. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    I hope Washington is ok. I’ve been critical of him a lot this season, but Powell can’t do it by himself.
    I would hate to see him have to go it alone inside at this point in the season.
    Delvon Johnson doesn’t bring enough defense to the table.
    He get’s a few shots inside here and there, but is practically invisible when it comes to blocking out on the rebounds and providing a defensive presence inside. We need help inside!

  135. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Bake, I have looked and looked for the Attendance. All I know is when there was a call against Auburn, the crowd yelled and the announcer said: 15,000 fans just made the call. :P

  136. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    I think Washington has a high ankle sprain. That takes weeks to heal.

  137. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Blake, not Bake. sorry ;)

  138. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    HOGS have been winning despite scheduling that has put them behind the eight ball. That’s a big difference from last year. I remember that both the KY as well as the AU games (this year) had AR playing teams that were rested for 1 week with AR coming off tough opponents with little turnaround time. I hope we get the favorable schedule next year.

  139. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Here you go Blake: Estimated Attendance: 15,036

  140. Hognick Hognick says:

    Is it just me or are the SEC officials watching the same game that I did. Some of the calls near the end of the game and in overtime looked really bad.

  141. Rodney Rodney says:

    IM SO HAPPY! My Hogs won! also my school G TOWN Hoyas just knocked off Nova! Me being a Arkansan I have NEVER saw 3 FEET of Snow…Until NOW! We just got done with a Huge snow ball fight in DC! GO HOGS! AND HOYAS!

  142. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    The regular SEC crew couldn’t make it to Fayetteville. So, they sent in the same crew that worked the Ark – Fla football game. Does that explain it ? ;) LOL

  143. Rodney Rodney says:

    Have any of you ever seen 3 FEET of snow?…

  144. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Rodney, I hope that snowball fight was against those politicans. Hit a few for me will ya !

    I saw that much snow a couple times. Once in Ft. Wayne, Indiana in 1978. 49 inches in 24 hours with 70 mph winds
    Once in Bethlehem, PA in 1992. 33 inches over night.

  145. Hognick Hognick says:

    That’s a good one, Ron. LOL

  146. Rodney Rodney says:

    Lol Ron I would if I could… The politicans dont just walk around NW DC. Wow im glad you have Ron cause I havnt seen anything like this the first 21 years of my life! I miss the Arkansas Weather!

  147. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Enjoy it ! Build a few snowmen. Build a snow fort. Build an Igloo. Stock up on the beer and videos. Bring in a couple women and blankets. Then turn the heat down ;) LOL

  148. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Enjoy it ! Build a few snowmen. Build a snow fort. Build an Igloo. Stock up on the beer and videos. Bring in a couple women and blankets. Then turn the heat down ;)

  149. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Sorry for the double post

  150. Rodney Rodney says:

    Ron it looks like Stan Heath can coach NOW! His USF team came up here to DC and beat us on Wend! I was like why couldn’t he do that at ARK!…

  151. krak krak says:

    Hey Rodney, you go to Gtown also? Damn man, me too. I didn’t know there were any other Arkansans here in DC. We gotta go catch some arkansas football/bball games sometime. Go Hogs, 1st in west

  152. Rodney Rodney says:

    Yeah ofcourse me and my Frat brothers got like 7 Girls… And a Whole lot of Beer… We are going to play Beer Pong (loose Clothes version)!!!

  153. Quinn Quinn says:

    Best crowd I have seen so far this year. There were still some empty seats but by far the best crowd yet. We used to have a substantial home court advantage and now it seems every game at home we have to fight the officials as well. There is one ref in particular that also worked the MSU game and I have never seen him make a good call. Time and again our players got hacked inside to a no call and immediately the same type of play on the other end was a foul. WTF? It just shows how improved this team is that it can overcome that kind of adversity to win games.

  154. krak krak says:

    Straight up dude. Currently still nursing a cold but yeah whenever you guys got soemthing happenin’ I’ll be down. Catch you around man.

  155. Josh in FL Josh in FL says:

    First quarter of conference season: 1-3, grade: F. everyone was ready to fire Pel after the UK game, me included.

    Second quarter of the conference season: 4-0, grade: A. what a turnaround! Fortson has emerged as a game winner, our defense gets key stops down the stretch, and we play hard on the road.

    Our only gimmies left are the two games against LSU, and no road game is really a gimmie. It’s a tough schedule from here out. 9-7 (and maybe better) is within range, 8-8 is perhaps more realistic. To reach the NIT we need to go 9-7.

    I would be really proud of this team if we go 9-7. Heck, 8-8 seemed laughable at the start of the conference season.

  156. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    Yeah ofcourse me and my Frat brothers got like 7 Girls… And a Whole lot of Beer… We are going to play Beer Pong (loose Clothes version)!!!

    By Rodney on Feb 6, 2010 @ 4:14pm
    ——————————–

    I like the (lose clothes version) better. ;) Hahahahahaha

  157. Mike Mike says:

    Mike Washington has become a joke ! He is lazy – never hustles down the floor, throws a fit every time he gets called for a fowl, and plays with no energy at all. We all get excited when he gets an easy dunk but who cares ! He does not help pump up his fellow team mates – really watch him when they announce the starting lineup – he really does not slap hand, high-five, etc the others as their names are called. He stand around with his head down – Like I said – he is a joke!

  158. Rodney Rodney says:

    Lol I meant that! My Blackberry storm is hard to type when your cold!

  159. Rodney Rodney says:

    We are better with Washington… than without him! He is a Arkansan that provides seinor inside Scoring. Who else beside powell do we have..? Nobody on the Inside!

  160. Rodney, I just walked around in that snow.

  161. And ROdney, I hope you dont work for Blanche Lincoln, or else it looks like you will be out of a job soon :)

    WPS! And go John Boozman!!!

  162. Tim Tim says:

    Good post Josh. Your post pretty much says it all. 9-7 would be great so the hogs can get a NIT invite. One game at a time – including LSU at home on Wed nite. LSU has a couple of good players. I hope Mike Wash’s injury is not too bad. The Hogs need all their ammo. GO HOGS!!

  163. Ron in Germany Ron in Germany says:

    The wheels have come off for the longhorns. Yippee kye yaaa

  164. joshua joshua says:

    I agree that Washington has been a HUGE disappointment this year, but, like Rodney said, we’re alot better with him than without him right now. We need some beef down low and he provides that for us.

  165. Guys, Washington has been battling back problems. Under the circumstances, I don’t think hes been that bad. I hope he gets 100% healthy and that ankle fixed!

  166. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    The LSU game at home couldn’t be coming at a better time. Hopefully, Powell will be able to play most of that game and give Washington’s ankle a chance to heal.

  167. oldhog oldhog says:

    Have any of you ever seen 3 FEET of snow?…

    By Rodney on Feb 6, 2010 @ 3:57pm

    I spent 13 months in Iceland and saw enough snow to last me a lifetime.

  168. GonzoHog GonzoHog says:

    I agree. If there’s one game we might win without MW, it would be LSU at home. They’ve had a terrible season so far.
    On the other hand, everyone tries their best to knock off the top dog…er… top Hawg, that is.
    Auburn gave us a pretty good shot today.

    Man, it felt good to say that! TOP HAWGS, BABY!!!!!

  169. Georgia almost looked as bad against Kentucky as we did! (55-81) final score

  170. Guys Mississippi is looking BAD. Score is 40-20 Alabama at halftime!

  171. Rodney Rodney says:

    No… I dont have any political connections PeytonHillisFTW. Just a student at Georgetown inspiring to be a Coach Someday… I learn alot from you all. But I will always be a Razorback fan! And oldhog Wow I think the Nations Capital is far north im going! Iceland to COLD!

  172. Rodney, I watched Georgetown versus Notre Dame in Verizon Center….the size of the arena is insane for college basketball.

  173. Tyler Tyler says:

    Rodney, you’re a Hogs fan in DC too???

  174. Rodney Rodney says:

    Yeah it is a great Arena! We get it Rocking in the Student section! The Duke game last week was AWESOME! Obama was there and it was Sold out! Yeah Tyler been in Northern VA for Three years now… But my home is North Little Rock! I love DC so much now!

  175. Tyler Tyler says:

    Nice, I’m a student in DC, never lived in LR but I have family there and visit a few times a year (LSU game) and the needless to say, the Razorbacks are my favorite football team. The snow is pretty insane. Arkansas fans here are so rare though

  176. Rodney Rodney says:

    Yeah I know Tyler you dont see alot of Arkansan’s in the DC area! Im in Arlington/Pentagon City right now with some of my friends… You go to G Mason or GW?…

  177. Bigfoot Bigfoot says:

    Rodney, I lived in NY state off the end of Lake Ontario. When I was there the average annual snowfall was 15 feet. This is not far from Lake Placid and Turin where the Olympics were held. Yes, and -46F. You would be surprised at what you would give for a fur lined Jock!

  178. Rodney Rodney says:

    Lol thats Extreme Bigfoot… Wow well you got me beat! Im a southern person and my SUV got stuck earlier lucky I got 4 wheel DR… Im just glad the snow has finally stoped!… Till Tuesday!!! I heard all Arkansas got was alot of rain…

  179. Hogfan in SWLA Hogfan in SWLA says:

    Rodney,

    LOL. My wife has a Masters Chem E from UofA. When we lived in the PA/OH area of the country she would always remind me that there’s no such thing as 4 wheel stop. Be careful. Sounds like DC Hogs are an endangered species.

  180. Blake Blake says:

    we get over 400 inches a year here in Steamboat, but this year has been our mildest winter since ive lived here

  181. Tyler Tyler says:

  184. i think blake lives in colorado

  185. bigdaddy d bigdaddy d says:

    Courtney Fortson is like a clumsey magician(outta control, but somehow pulls a rabbit out of his hat) He makes you have a heart attach for half of the game, and looks like a first round lottery pick for half of the game.

    Mike Washington is playing like he has oil on his hands and feet.

    I think if Courntey Fortson was not suspended for those 14 games, we would only have between 4-7 losses.

    Coach Pelphrey is looking like a pretty good coach right now. (He still reminds me of Will Ferrel on speed during his press confereces though)

    Good to see ya back Ron in Germany

  186. HogFanBrad HogFanBrad says:

    Ron,
    You sure that snow was in ’92? I remember in ’93 I was stationed in NJ at Mcguire AFB and we had a Blizzard and it was unbelievable. I hate to sound like a nit-picker, but I clearly remember that because I had just gotten out of basic. I’m originally from MD so I had seen large snowfalls before, but I remember some of the southern boys on base thinking their 4WD pick-ups could handle that much snow…they found out otherwise when I showed up with a 7 1/2 ton tow truck to get their butts out of the ditch. Not their fault, they just didn’t know.

  187. HonestAbeHog HonestAbeHog says:

    Very good come-back victory again. These players have heart.

  188. razorpride89 razorpride89 says:

    With Washington out for the last 8-9 mins of the game, I think a 3 point win is great! As said before-a win is a win no matter what!

    Let’s just hope Washington isn’t hurt too bad. If he is, maybe we can get Mickelson to graduate early & walk on next week?

  189. Pig-in-a-Poke Pig-in-a-Poke says:

    So we have a committment from Ross and I’ve heard about Ky and Mickelson, but was there another instate kid in that class that they’re chasing?

  190. razorpride89 razorpride89 says:

    Good question Pig-in-a-Poke,

    Those are the only 3 I’ve heard of.

  191. MRPRFCT MRPRFCT says:

    David Rivers of LR Hall is a great player. You also have Hooper Vint of Van Buren.

  192. fliphog fliphog says:

    the griswald kid from dumas is also D-1 material and arkansas is watching for both football and bball

  193. fliphog fliphog says:

    it’s going to be the best crop of basketball talent in state history. as bill self said at the little rock td club “every major program in the country will be in arkansas next recruiting season.” there could be as many as 5 of the top 100.

  194. Ima Hawg Ima Hawg says:

    Who’s to say we can’t go 10-6. That would be 5-3 in the second half of the conference season just like the first. Then win the SEC tournament. I know I’m dreaming. But I had given up on them early just like everyone else. You never know…just sayin.

    I might have been ’93 now that you mention it. I was snowed in for 3 days. Me and 2 girls shared a Motel room. Wild ! I was just a bit younger then. You know the old saying. What I used to do all night, now it takes me all night to do ! ;)

  197. hogice hogice says:

    It’s nice seeing improvement on this year’s team. Last year there was a big debate on this matter. People were saying Petrino had the football team showing great improvement, and there was a debate about the basketball team. Folks, this year is what improvement is. Not last year.

    However, it’s still hard to measure this basketball team, because the SEC West is so weak. The winner of this division could still lose in the first round of the NCAA tournament, if they make it there.

    If Washington can ever get healthy and play like he did against Texas and Oklahoma last year, he and Powell could be a force down at the post. Of course Fortson will have to carry the rest of the team. Clark is off-and-on.

  198. Hawgfan100 Hawgfan100 says:

    “Clark is off-and-on.”

    Clark tends to draw the opposing team’s best defender who then parks his butt in Clarke’s hip pocket all night. It’s amazing to me he gets the shots he get now. This is also funny because when our opponents do that, Fortson typically goes nuts on ‘em. But that’s part of what I like about this team: pick your poison.

  199. poch punt poch punt says:

    It’s amazing how Courtney Fortson has carried this team so far. I’m really afraid he may hit the wall before this season is over. It’s no wonder he looks like the most spent person on the floor after each game. Hope others can play well enough to reduce some of his minutes. May not happen, just hoping.

  200. Big Boi Big Boi says:

    I think Nobles could give him a rest here or their. Nobles is a good defender better then Fortson I would say. CJP can select he spots so Nobles can do more good then bad(Freshman mistakes)

  201. poch punt poch punt says:

    The league is kind of baffling. Besides Kentucky there is some pretty inconsistent play from the other teams. Feel we can play with all these teams. Sure LSU will try to bring the game to a grinding halt. Hopefully we can set tempo early.
