FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Arkansas coach John L. Smith says he is making plans to declare bankruptcy as a result of several land developments gone bust in Kentucky.

Hog fans better hope he's a better coach than business man.

Hmmm, good point 2. I wonder if his land deveopments were similar to the ponzi scheme that was used on some of the SEC coaches.

Well don't you think these coaches would have someone to handle these ventures for them? They coach football and their representative should work land deals correctly and protect them or so I would think. RTR!

Poor guy is broke and a bandaid fix for Arky.  They will drop him like a rock at the end of the season and go after the best coach they can find. Smith was never intended to be the Hogs long term solution. If Petrino was still there this team had high hopes. Without Petrino I think 8 wins would be good.

I agree about all of this, but I think the Hogs will win more than 8 games. Without Petrino, the offense has definitely lost its edge.

More than 8. How many? To make this test more difficult who will they lose to?
