IN COLLEGE TRACK AND FIELD...the Head Coach is "everything." Texas A&M has been National Champions in Men's and Women's Track the past TWO years. Will A&M whip the U of A in Track from the start of their SEC membership?

A&M has a super Head Track Coach that wins where ever he goes (he won the National Championship at LSU before being hired by Texas A&M). Why can't Arkansas hire a super Track Coach like Texas A&M has? .....the Head Track Coach "is everything" in Track and Field at all colleges.

We miss our championship Coach John McDonnell who retired before Chris Bucknam was hired. Will Bucknam ever produce a champion at Arkansas?... not if A&M can prevent it!!

After John McDonnell, anybody was going to be a downgrade. I think you have to give Bucknam a little more time. He has done a decent job in the SEC meets.
