EZ-E Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 if he's going to school for anything business related - Arkansas will be tough to beat. The fact that Warren Buffet went to UNL college of business made a huge impact on Terrell Newby's family.... Just saying. Link to comment

The fact that Warren Buffet went to UNL college of business made a huge impact on Terrell Newby's family.... Just saying. Business majors can't be successful. He should just bank on the NFL.

dylan Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Your updates are comedic gold. I was told at one point he committed. Now same person told me not so fast. Just passing along what I hear guys. I'm not the only one stating certain things. I appreciate people passing on rumors. Yours just seem to have a propensity lately for following along with what is already posted in a given thread. You suddenly hearing that Arkansas was in it, after it was already posted by someone else (and after you just posted that he was already ours), is hilarious. Link to comment

The fact that Warren Buffet went to UNL college of business made a huge impact on Terrell Newby's family.... Just saying. The fact that someone went to a school 70 years ago (after UofPenn) would have very little impact on my decision. I'd guess the school was a little different back then as well. Just sayin... I actually didn't know this until a former boss of mine took his son to visit Arkansas a few weeks ago. Walmart pumps hundreds of millions into that school. Not surprising. As does Tyson foods. What I didn't know is that Wal-mart also requires that any company doing business with them have a presence in or around Fayetteville. That means that something like 400 of the Fortune 500 companies are represented down there. Coupled with the relatively small market - internships are a dime a dozen for Arkansas grads/students. He's looked at a dozen other schools throughout the B12 and midwest (former boss is very wealthy) including Baylor, A&M, etc and he said that Arkansas blew everyone away when it came to the business program and academic facilities. Surprised me. Link to comment

Surprised me. I live closely to U of A, and I know plenty of people that have attended the school. It is not a hard school too get into, and from my experiences/understandings you are "sunshine pumping" their academic facilities.... They are no better than most other major schools....

Don't get me wrong, it is a fine school, but there are better schools in the surrounding states.... Link to comment
kchusker_chris Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Don't get me wrong, it is a fine school, but there are better schools in the surrounding states.... I was just shocked that it was even considered a "fine" school. I'd been thinking for a long time that Arkansas was kind of a dump, and their academics were worthless. And they might still be - but at least I now know why some people would go there...it's easy to get a high paying job when you're done - courtesy of Wal-Mart and the companies they work with. And I actually kind of like the state. I've only been up north - but pretty country. Link to comment
Hammerhead Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I came to the board to catch some recruiting news since there's so much going on. Instead I had to sift through an entire page of bill sh#t before giving up. If nothing else, it's a friendly reminder why I don't come here anymore. Thanks! #GBR So coming here to say you don't come here anymore counts as not coming here anymore? Link to comment

That is like a different world. Poor kids that grow up there. Link to comment
ObamaRocks91 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 if he's going to school for anything business related - Arkansas will be tough to beat. According to Businessweek, their business college is rated 102 and our business college is 108. 1 Link to comment
