Vandalism

[edit]

This statement was in the timeline under the history header. Removed. "On 11 September 2001, Frank Broyles was excited when the terrorist activities happenend in New York City. In fact you could hear him call the Razorbacks everytime one of the towers fell to the ground. After this he and Osama bin Laden created a secret handshake in honor of their terrorist ties to one another. After this Frank Broyles declared that he would start to play in-state teams as soon as the towers were rebuilt." There has been a lot of controversy surround Broyles lately, but I'm not sure we should limit editing of this article because of it. We'll just have to watch it for more things like this.

[edit]

Could someone find an old logo for the Hogs before it became all futuristic and ugly? Easytoremember 06:43, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fanaticism

[edit]

Why doesn't anybody mention how obsessed the average person in Arkansas is about the Arkansas razorbacks? Almost every front license plate spot in Conway has a razorback logo on it.

Football Helmet

[edit]

Does nobody realize thats the old helmet? The hog is now bigger and the paint is now a deeper, metallic color. WTF Wiki?

Porcine nickname

[edit]

The teams are the only major sports team in the US with a porcine nickname. Texas A&M University-Kingsville is the Javelinas. OlYeller 03:12, 8 January 2007 (UTC) I'm pretty sure that isn't a MAJOR sports team. We are talking BCS level teams here.Squanie92 (talk) 03:35, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Asterisk?

[edit]

One or more anonymous users keep putting an asterisk next to the reference to the Razorbacks' 1964 national championship. Please discuss. We don't need to start an edit war. Jonneroo (talk) 19:25, 17 February 2008 (UTC) It's probably Alabama fans. The Crimson tide was awarded the AP trophy that year, however they lost a bowl game to Texas which lost to Arkansas that season. Arkansas won its bowl game that year so the Hogs should be champions. Bama fans claim many undeserved national titles.Squanie92 (talk) 03:40, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This area is wrong. It states that Arkansas' 1964 national championship is not recognized by the NCAA, but the NCAA does recognize Arkansas' 1964 national championship. You can see that here:

https://www.ncaa.com/news/football/article/college-football-national-championship-history

The problem may be in the wording, because while the NCAA doesn't recognize an official national champion, it does recognize some of those that have been awarded, including the one awarded by the FWAA in 1964. Alabama has no asterisk by any of it's titles, including the one in 1964, despite that as far as the NCAA is concerned, Arkansas' title is on equal footing to Alabama's.

I would change it myself, but I'm not familiar with Wikipedia, so I hope someone will fix this error.

Picture of LSU players on AR page?

[edit]

Why is there a picture of LSU celebrating a win over Arkansas on the Arkansas Wiki page? The only thing I can think of is that this picture was placed by an LSU fan. This is embarrassing. User:Bugo (talk) 03:52, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Arkansas Lady Razorbacks

[edit]
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was to merge. ❄ Corkythehornetfan ❄ 14:42, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that this article be merged into the Arkansas Razorbacks article as it is the common standard here on Wikipedia. On January 1, 2008, the men's/women's athletic departments at Arkansas merged into one after longtime athletic director Frank Broyles retired. ([1]) The school no longer uses "Lady" in their nicknames anymore and in most of their news articles they refer to the women as Razorbacks. If you want to go so far as the social media, they brand as just the "Razorbacks women's...". The articles for the Arkansas Lady Razorbacks softball and its categories would need moved as well.

I've went through all the women's teams at the Arkansas website. None of them do. — Wyliepedia 20:17, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
